More DescriptionMovement is spirit in action and has been a vital part of sacred rituals in virtually every culture. Combining physical movement with prayer is an increasingly popular spiritual discipline, seen most often in the growing practices of yoga, t'ai chi, and qigong. "Spirit In Action" is a new discipline, a gentler Tae-Bo "TM" for the soul."Spirit In Action" was developed into an expanded spiritual teaching from The Aerobic Prayer "TM" video series, a "hot new fitness trend", says the NAPRA NetWorker, which concentrates on exercise routines. The embodied prayers in the book incorporate dance steps and forms of physical worship that have traditionally been used to summon divine energies in many different cultures, including African, Brazilian, Polynesian, Cuban, Celtic, Mideastern, Far Eastern, and Native American. Illustrated with step-by-step photographs throughout, Dr. Lamberti's moving meditations can be used to promote relaxation and a sense of well-being, give thanks and bestow blessings, enhance a connection to the divine, and increase concentration, patience, compassion, courage, and other kinds of energy.
