Honoring Motherhood by Lynn Caruso
Make a spiritual journey through this beautiful collection of blessings, prayers and meditations honouring motherhood - a path both beautiful and terrifying, a great joy and a vessel for sorrow, and inheritance, and at times a loss. These moving meditations for all mothers - traditional, single, adopted, bereaved, foster and stepmothers - are drawn from many faith traditions, including Native American, Christian, Muslim, Jewish, Hindu and Buddhist. Exploring the cycle of motherhood through the metaphor of the planting season, these writings capture the reverence for mothers found in various faith traditions and cultures, and the profound experiences - often bittersweet and ripe with paradox - shared by mothers through history. Contributions stem from both ancient and contemporary sources, and many contributions were written specifically for this book.
Lynn L. Caruso is an inspiring teacher, writer, parent/child advocate and mother of three children. A contributing writer to Mothering magazine, her work has been published in many other journals and magazines. Caruso is, also, the editor of the first-of-its-kind Blessing the Animals.
