More women than ever are incorporating some kind of spiritual practice into their daily lives, and not always in traditional religious form, but as alternative or hybrid practices. In Practicing the Presence of the Goddess, Barbara Ardinger offers a wide variety of meditations and personal rituals to help women honor the feminine spirit and commune with the Goddess. These include creating a sacred space at home, building a meaningful altar, using ritual and meditation to enrich awareness, and inventing new rituals to celebrate personal events. The author's wry, gentle humor and loving attitude shine through the text, which offers possibilities ranging from bringing love into one's life to having a heart-to-heart with the Goddess.
I truly enjoy the book. It was in excellent condiiton and I read it daily.

Barbara's book is an excellent place to start. I consider this a 'must have' book in any collection on the Goddess.
A Guide to her Presence

Dr. Ardinger is a witty and trustworthy guide to the world of the Goddess and Goddess worship today. Like Brother Lawrence, the mystic who inspired her title and who found God present in the smallest and humblest details of life, Sister Barbara invites us to find and celebrate the Goddess everywhere, everyday, thus finding renewal for our spirits and the power to transform our world. Her style is a pleasure, pithy, humorous, and wise. Recommended for beginners and longtime practioners of her presence.
This one's a GEM!

This small, deliciously lovely book packs in more Goddess wisdom than I've seen in books 5 times as large over the last dozen years. I'm buying one for every woman on my holiday shopping list and I suggest you do the same. Your friends will appreciate it, whether they are Goddess women or not!
