A renowned, respected teacher and mentor to thousands, Sobonfu Somi is one of the first and foremost voices of African spirituality to come to the West.

Somi was born in Dano, Burkina Faso, a remote West African village with a population of about two hundred people. Dano has preserved the old ways of African village life, with family structures, spiritual practices, and methods of living that have been in place for more than ten thousand years. In The Spirit of Intimacy, Somi distills the ancient teachings and wisdom of her native village to give insight into the nature of intimate relationships.

Somi generously applies the subtle knowledge from her West African culture to this one. Simply and beautifully, she reveals the role of spirit in every marriage, friendship, relationship, and community. She shares ancient ways to make our intimate lives more fulfilling and secure and offers powerful insights into the illusion of romance, divorce, and loss. Her important and fascinating lessons from the heart include the sacred meaning of pleasure, preparing a ritual space for intimacy, and the connection between sex and spirituality. Her ideas are intuitively persuasive, provocative, and healing--and supported by sound practical advice, along with specific rituals and ceremonies based on those used for thousands of years.

With this book, the spiritual insights of indigenous Africa take their place alongside those of native America, ancient Europe, and Asia as important influences on Western readers.

Absolute favorite!
Format: Kindle
1st Iove that it is a standalone. Duets kill me because the conflict in-between is so stressful. I just want happiness soon haha I was hoping Katy would be the long lost sister...but I am so glad it wasn't what I thought. Lyssa will always be my favorite in this whole damn universe. "Why the hell would I need therapy?" Hahaa gold! I need more of your books. Sigh...I have read every single of of them. What a journey!

another excellent story
Format: Kindle
The author recommends reading her prior mafia books and I agree. With each book she builds on the saga, picking up where the last left off, adding new characters but keeping the old. This book has several stories woven in, but 2 strong and exciting new characters. The connection between these women is electric, the story dynamic and action exciting. I hope these tales continue!
