As a path of meaning seeking, healing, and transformation,
spirituality is becoming more prominent in our society.
Historically, women have been the custodians of their families'
spiritual domain. This book advances the concept of WomanSoul, a
gender-specific way of embracing spirituality. WomanSoul discusses
the personal and professional impact of spirituality in the lives
of women from a variety of ethnic, religious, and cultural
backgrounds. It examines the psychological, multicultural, and
personal expressions of female spirituality. More specifically, the
essays collected here look at the impact of women's spirituality on
identity, healing, and transformation across the lifecourse.
WomanSoul focuses on how females express spirituality from their
diverse backgrounds and situated realities. It cuts across ethnic
identities, culture, and a multitude of spiritual experiences, such
as Muslim, Jewish, Christian, Hindu, Buddhist, Sufi, Goddess,
Native American, and Agnosticism. As women tend to experience
sacredness in a gender-specific manner, they frequently place more
emphasis on spirituality than on religiousness. Seen as a freeing
force by most women, spirituality is most often perceived to be
more gender-fair, culturally liberating, and less restrictive than
many religious denominations. Both informative and inspirational,
WomanSoul is written by psychologists who understand the
implications of spirituality on the lives of women and the people
around them.
