Description: |
A compelling exploration of the lost yet crucial role of ritual. Today, in the West, we hold neither adequate rites of passage for our youth, nor initiations for our growing number of elders. Re-enchanting the Forest is written for that part in us that that seeks to bring an embodied sense of solace and belonging back into our modern lives. |
Synopsis: |
A compelling exploration of the lost yet crucial role of ritual in our increasingly secular lives. Today, in the West, we hold neither adequate rites of passage for our youth, nor initiations for our growing number of elders. We have neither healing rituals for the loss of an unborn child, nor ways to mark the severing of a twenty-year relationship. This can leave us feeling alienated and bereft. Re-enchanting the Forest is written for that part in us that yearns for living ritual, that seeks to bring an embodied sense of solace and belonging back into our modern lives. Drawing on his own experience, and on the ritual cultures of the indigenous world, William Ayot demonstrates the value and power of ritual to revive and 're-wire' our sometimes confused and disconnected spirits. With a foreword by Mark Rylance. |
