Review:

Isabel Anders is a teacher pulling up threads in the tapestry of our collective lives so that we might examine them and then weave them into our own personal tapestry. I found myself wanting to enter into the dialogue and to be included in the conversation. (Marian Windel, Executive Director, Sophia House, Louisa, VA) What is here is the eternal feminine in its most sacred presentations, and all people, regardless of gender, yearn to know and be embraced by that hallowed fullness. (Phyllis Tickle, author of The Great Emergence and The Divine Hours, in her Foreword to Becoming Flame. I like [Isabel's] mixture of profundity and populism - her sense of addressing something accessible but without leaving behind the most serious paradoxes. (Richard Grossinger, author of On the Integration of Nature.)
