About the Book
A Meditative Journey with Saldage interweaves elements of the author's own history within a fabric composed of Buddhist philosophies of suffering and Christian ideals of forgiveness, as well as traditional elements of psychology and universal threads of myth. The result is a rich tapestry of value to anyone seeking a personal and compassionate guide towards self-discovery and recovery from the sources and consequences of human suffering.
The illuminating discussion of the interconnectedness of spiritual, mythological, and psychological philosophies relating to the human experience and the practical illustrations of means of overcoming sources of suffering within this experience make this work a valuable tool for individual women and a significant contribution for the therapeutic environment
