Many of us have taken in so much information that we are ready to take in less, but take in well one phrase or one word, well loved, well learned, meditated upon and lived out, rather than a tome-sized prescription where meaning gets lost in an endless sea of text. In this collection of adventures into camino divina "the walk of the Divine" wise words and shimmering silence, soulful exploration and creative imagination weave together an opportunity for savoring and understanding our interiors and exteriors in a much deeper way. Inspired by the ancient spiritual practices of lectio divina and walking meditation, camino divina helps you explore whole new worlds inside yourself as well as re-view the natural world around you by combining mindful walking with inspiring phrases. Your companions are spiritual luminaries such as Wendell Berry, Mary Oliver, Hildegard of Bingen, Clarissa Pinkola Estes, John O'Donohue and more, whose wise words provide nourishment for all kinds of journeys into your soul. For individual and group use, this book seeks to delight and deepen, to create a powerful practice you can take with you wherever you go a well-planned or serendipitous trip, a pilgrimage to a sacred site or a meandering in your own neighbourhood. All it takes is a pair of legs and a pairing of words that will help your divine imagination run wise and run wild.

Reviews for Walking the Divine Way
"Delightful…. Guides us to open the ears of our heart, our eyes and imagination to dive deeper into … encountering ourselves, others and the Divine mystery. Recommended to all who are seeking practices that can be taken with us wherever we go." —Ravi Verma, program director, Stillpoint: The Center for Christian Spirituality "Luminous … hooks us up with a passage of sacred poetry from an array of wisdom beings to light our way home to our true self, even as we walk with intense awareness on this earth." —Mirabai Starr, author, God of Love: A Guide to the Heart of Judaism, Christianity & Islam "Draws on the holy interplay between our internal and external landscapes to create a compelling spiritual practice…. I will use [this book] often in spiritual direction and as a personal trail guide through Mystery." —Hope Lyda, spiritual director; author, One-Minute Prayers for Comfort and Healing “[A] beautifully crafted, insightful and spiritually challenging book. My life was enriched through walking this spiritual pathway.” —Terry Glaspey, author, 75 Masterpieces Every Christian Should Know: The Fascinating Stories Behind Great Art, Music, Literature, and Film; blogs at terryglaspey.com “Strikes the rarely found balance between sharing the fruit of [the author's] own deep work and leaving generous spaciousness for each pilgrim to discover … his or her own path. Delightfully fresh…. What a gift!” —Rev. Jan Gough, spiritual director, supervisor, and retreat leader, Medanales, New Mexico “Wildly imaginative, well-integrated spiritual practices for embarking upon any pathway. A must-read for all those who seek to learn how to traverse familiar paths in fresh ways as well as better navigate uncharted territory.” —Diane M. Millis, PhD, director, Journey Conversations Project; author, Deepening Engagement: Essential Wisdom for Listening and Leading with Purpose, Meaning and Joy “For one who teaches walking meditation, I wish I could make this lovely book required reading for all my students. Although it is equally good for anybody—walking or not—on how to see, how to sense, and how to savor. Walk with the saints—and become one, it might just be saying!” —Fr. Richard Rohr, OFM, Center for Action and Contemplation, Albuquerque, New Mexico
