Now available in paperback and from the authors of the bestselling Spiritual Literacy comes "a marvelous guide that translates 'feeling spiritual' into 'being spiritual'" (Larry Dossey, M.D., author of Reinventing Medicine). In their bestselling book Spiritual Literacy, the Brussats introduced an alphabet of spiritual practices, from Attention and Beauty through Imagination and Play. Now, in Spiritual Rx, the Brussats describe the best ways to explore 37 essential practices, including identifying key teachers, recommending books to read, art works and videos to view, tapes to hear, plus much much more.
I have found this book to be a valuable personal resource as well as a resource with patients I see in the health care setting. I would recommend this book to those who are straving spiritually (which I cam imagine might be all of us) and those who are caregivers in the caring professions.
A total winner

The Brussats have presented us with a real winner. Their book is not just another interesting, inspirational collection of advice and philosophy, but instead a very practical reference that I can use frequently in my every day life. And not just for myself but with my clients as well. Particularly easy to use because of it's coherent, straight forward format that runs throughout the book, it offers exercises and information that help me impart, to myself and others, ways for living a grateful, gracious, life, in which difficult circumstances, disappointments, pain,etc., may be transformed, even if only for a few moments, so we can catch a glimpse of the light and restore our faith. This is genuinely a major accomplishment. The book has not yet made it to my book shelf though I bought it when it first came out in early winter. It stays out on my desk at all times so that I can refer to it everyday. I want to say thank you and bravo. I look forward to Maryanne and Frederick Brussats next star turn in publishing.
