Description: "In The Bones and Breath, author L. R. Heartsong asserts that we each have an essential gift to bring to the world. By actively embodying the soul we undertake a profound, transpersonal journey, one that serves humanity and the Earth at a crucial phase of our collective evolution. Our life task is not to transcend the body but to become fully human by descending into the bones and breath. Heartsong seeks to bring men out of their heads and down into the body/soul to discover their personal authenticity as a wild soul.  Eros is the key. Eros is something much more than romantic love - it is the elemental force of allurement that plays a pivotal role in our evolution as conscious beings and pulls us toward our destiny. The sacred masculine as an important archetype now making a much-needed return to assist humanity, as men shift from being the single most destructive force on the planet to a life-sustaining and interconnected force. Interweaving personal stories and seven primary Soul Skills and Embodiment Exercises, The Bones and Breath is part inspirational narrative, part how-to manual for a soul-centered life"--
