Camino Divina―Walking the Divine Way: A Book of Moving Meditations with Likely and Unlikely Saints
Learn to walk again―into your inner and outer landscapes―attuned to the divine delights, insights, and challenges awaiting you with every step.
"[Practicing] camino divina … there is a deep and focused listening going on…. You are given the opportunity to discern for yourself what meaning-making can be sculpted out of the clay of place, physical movement and meditation, incorperating the surprise gifts opening up all around and within you, both praise worthy and puzzling."
―from the Introduction
Inspired by the ancient spiritual practices of Lectio Divina and walking meditation, Camino Divina helps you explore whole new worlds inside yourself as well as re-view the natural world around you by combining mindful walking, inspiring phrases, and spiritual exercises. Your ancient and contemporary companions are spiritual luminaries such as Wendell Berry, Mary Oliver, Clarissa Pinkola Estes, Hildegard of Bingen, John O'Donohue, and more, whose wise words provide nourishment for all kinds of journeys into your soul.
