Find wisdom, courage and strength in challenging times from one of America's greatest ancestors: Harriet Tubman. Spring Washam is an important and eloquent voice in the Buddhist community. Her new book explores Harriet Tubman's life, spiritual message and legacy, calling forth her spirit so that you can honour and embody her incredible strength and unwavering courage. Each chapter will examine a different facet of Harriet's life and how it can be applied to our world. You will learn how to meet challenges with an open heart and find the courage and wisdom to face the unknown. Understanding how to deepen our roots of resilience is a necessary practice in these uncertain times. We are in the midst of a revolution for equality - a movement of the heart - and Harriet's unstoppable spirit in the fight against racism, sexism and white supremacy is needed more than ever. Whether we need to focus on cultivating supportive practices for ourselves, or on developing skills to engage more broadly with what is unfolding in the larger world, the dharma teachings and mindfulness practice in this book can support us as we respond to this unprecedented time.
