Synopsis

Story as Medicine. Voice as Power. Wisdom Hard-Won.

In Radiant Wisdom, eighteen courageous women share the stories they were never supposed to tell - and in doing so, offer their healing to the world.

From incest survived to a life rebuilt on the body's own wisdom. From a child medically kidnapped to a mother's love that no system could sever. From the silencing of a woman's voice in a seminary sixty years ago to the full awakening of kundalini rising today.

These true stories span the arc of the women's movement and arrive today in one of the most consequential moments of our time - a reminder that feminine wisdom, when it finally breaks free, changes everything it touches.

Each page invites you into a sacred circle of women who chose truth over silence - so that you, too, remember your own resilience, your own voice, and your own radiant wisdom.

"In Radiant Wisdom, 18 intrepid women choose to relive dire memories of sexual assault, grief, betrayal, kidnapping, and trauma. They exhibit this extraordinary courage so that we might understand, through their suffering, the hard-won epiphanies of grace and renewal. The writers of these stories are lionesses in our midst, ferocious in their commitment to the truth and the empathy it unlocks for others and themselves."

Kevin Sites, Author of three books on war and the novel, The Ocean Above Me

Come. Be witnessed. Be moved. Be reminded: your story is medicine, too.

À propos de l'auteur

Every morning, Laura Joan Cornell rolls out her yoga mat, moves through her practice, sits in meditation, and then writes.This is how she lives: embodied, intentional, and unwaveringly committed to the belief that the most important work a woman can do is to share the wisdom she has spent a lifetime accumulating.Laura knows what it costs to carry a book for years without writing it. For twenty years, she held her first book inside her, Moon Salutations: Women's Journey Through Yoga to Healing, Power, and Peace, while life, fear, and a silencing inner voice gave her reasons to wait. She also knows what it took to finally write it: the right mentor, a method that included the body, and the willingness to write her way through the stories she had been most afraid to speak.That method, Embodied Flow Writing, grew from her own decades of healing and from her training in East-West psychology and somatic practice. It is a process designed for women who have the wisdom and the will and who are searching for the doorway to birth their book.Since publishing Moon Salutations, Laura has helped more than 64 women write and publish their stories, including three best-sellingcollaborative anthologies she conceived, edited, and brought into the world. She has worked with psychotherapists, social workers, yoga teacher trainers, coaches, and healers who have spent 20 to 40 years becoming expert in something the world needs, and who areready to engrave that expertise permanently on the page.She has seen what happens when women become authors and the incredible way that they shine and glow as they cross this threshold.Laura holds a Master's Degree in East-West Psychology and a Doctorate in Religion and Philosophy. She is a certified 500-hour Kripalu Yoga teacher, Integrative Yoga Therapist, and Family and Systemic Constellations Facilitator. She is also the founder ofAnanda Press, a boutique publishing house for women writing in the embodied, spiritual, and healing tradition.If you have spent decades becoming someone with something to say, and you are ready to write the book that captures it at the level itdeserves, Laura is ready to walk that path with you.
