Women's Rites of Passage: How to Embrace Change and Celebrate Life

Rate this book
Women's Rites of Passage grew out of Abigail Brenner's desire to answer some fundamental questions about the role of rites of passage in contemporary women's lives. Relying on a research study involving over 50 women, Brenner shows how women today understand the need to take responsibility for their lives and for directing their own paths, and are beginning to do so by creating their own very personal rites of passage.

A good encouragement to savour and reflect on the changes in our lives. Ultimately there are no formulaic methods to coping - we are all so different that we have to make are our own journey. I wasn't wildly keen on the shamanistic ritual aspects but some of the self-questions were provocative and there were some insightful passages.
