Produktbeschreibung
"I have heard a call across a million years. I will answer it." Here is a book of women's rituals surrounding and embracing menstruation. With sensitivity, author Celu Amberstone gathers prayers and spiritual experiences from women celebrating their bodies and their profoundly personal experiences. Readers looking to support personal identity and strengthen a sense of community will find much of interest in Blessings of the Blood: a Book of Menstrual Lore and Rituals for Women. "May the works of your hands and the meditations of your heart be healing." This edition is a new release of a celebrated book previously released in 1991 from Beach Holme Press. For years, readers eagerly sought the book through used book dealers. Celu Amberstone and Kashallan Press are proud to release this new edition by popular request. Blessings of the Blood is available in an affordable ebook version for the first time, to complement the handsome trade paperback. For anyone interested in possibly feeling better about their blood, I highly recommend the book "Blessings Of The Blood" By Celu Amberstone. It is a wonderful book with personal stories of menarche, menopause and creativeness. It really opened my eyes to just how sacred and beautiful our blood is. -review on Mum website This is one of the best books on the subject of menstruation, and I wish they would reissue Celu's masterpiece! Filled with anecdotes, storytelling and empathy. -SMB, review on Amazon

Autorenporträt
Celu is of mixed Cherokee and Scots-Irish ancestry. Celu Amberstone was one of the few young people in her family to take an interest in learning Traditional Native crafts and medicine ways. This interest made several of the older members of her family very happy while annoying others. Legally blind since birth, she has defied her limitations and spent much of her life avoiding cities. Moving to Canada after falling in love with a Méeacute;tis-Cree man from Manitoba, she has lived in the rain forests of the west coast, a tepee in the desert and a small village in Canada's arctic. Along the way she also managed to acquire a BA in cultural anthropology and an MA in health education. Celu loves telling stories and reading. She lives in Victoria British Columbia near her grown children and grandchildren.
