What Does It Mean to Live a Fully Embodied Spiritual Life?

International Journal of Transpersonal Studies January 1, 2008 Jorge N. Ferrer 46 citations

Embodied spirituality integrates all human attributes, including the body and sexuality, in contrast to the disembodied spirituality based on dissociation or sublimation that has prevailed in religious history. Approaching the body as a living partner with which to co-create one's spiritual life is described. Ten features of a fully embodied spirituality are outlined, followed by reflections on the past, present, and potential future of embodied spirituality.
