Sex and the Intelligence of the Heart: Nature, Intimacy, and Sexual Energy
“With unflinching honesty, Julie McIntyre beautifully delivers a critically important message for all of us on the path to self-realization: a rarified spirituality divorced from the human energies and impulses of the erotic simply doesn’t work. Ecstasy is our birthright, and the shaming of our bodies needs to stop now.” (Will Johnson, author of Breathing Through the Whole Body and Rumi's Four Essential Practices)“Sex, Earth, and Spirit are one. Fearless sex, healed earth, healed soul: all one. The afflicted modern mind has forgotten this truth; contemporary sages merely glimpse it. McIntyre has done the profound work to reclaim and thoroughly live it. With this book, she has created a glorious bible with innumerable inroads to joy.” (Aphrodite Pheonix, author of Are They Bad Girls or Brilliant?)“Not only is this book filled with information that I’ve never seen presented in any text I've read, Julie McIntyre’s poetical style of writing flows from a heart of passion that is felt throughout the well–written text. This book of healing the inner child created a longing within me to allow myself to be loved and vulnerable, to know open-hearted intimacy, and express divine love to all. This book is a keeper and a title that I will share with many others!” (Yvonne Perry, July 2012)“If you’re brave enough to open it up and read through it, you will be pleasantly surprised to find that it’s a great way to re-assess your sexual self.” (John Marani, Facing North, February 2013)“Beautifully written and poignantly honestSex and the Intelligence of the Heartexplores Julie McIntyre’s quest to recover her own healthy sexuality. On that journey she makes a surprising discovery: her own healthy sexuality is inextricably interwoven with the health of the Earth itself. I cannot recommend it highly enough.” (Stephen Harrod Buhner, author of Secret Teachings of Plants and Ensouling Language)“A beautifully written and honest book about exploring the depths of sensuality and consciousness and how this awareness affects our lives, relationships, and the planet.” (Brigitte Mars, author of The Sexual Herbal)
