New Book! Contemplative Praxis and Politics
“This book is a call to radical wakefulness, showing how contemplative prac- tices become political tools capable of disrupting colonial and neoliberal forces shaping our bodies, minds, and collective possibilities. Revealing how domination embeds itself in the nervous system, the contributors offer a roadmap of responsibility, liberation, and decolonial resurgence through collective, embodied contemplative praxis. These teachings remind us that contemplative work is not passive; it is active, relational, and necessary for building the collective freedom our ancestors envisioned—and our descen- dants deserve.”
