Produktbeschreibung
Redefining Being Self-ish: My Journey From Escort to Monk to Me is an inspirational and intimate memoir. An unorthodox story told with unflinching candor, it will appeal to all readers on the quest for a meaningful life. Meet Sarah. She's twenty-two and facing a second unplanned pregnancy. Depressed and disillusioned, she sets out on a pilgrimage to understand sex, God, and herself. Sarah's path includes revisiting her ancestral roots in Judaism, exploring transformational work in the sex trade, and diving into Eastern-inspired new age spirituality. While wandering, she meets Sam, a New York baby-boomer-turned-monk living a life unplugged from society in remote, rural Oregon. With Sam, Sarah settles into a disciplined life of study, contemplation, meditation, and silence-leaving her career, friends, and family behind. Bound by the tranquility of intentional simplicity and navigating the wilderness of her own mind, Sarah unravels. She could never have anticipated what her journey of self-discovery would ask of her next. Redefining Being Self-ish sheds light on the value and trade-offs of being wisely selfish and illuminates the importance of self-inquiry in finding your unique path and purpose.

Autorenporträt
Sarah Marshank is the creator of "Selfistry," a system designed to facilitate self-exploration and personal spiritual development. Sarah holds a MA in History and Philosophy of Education and has taught for over thirty years. As a lifelong seeker of truth, she spent ten years in retreat exploring timeless spiritual practices such as meditation, prayer, contemplation, silence, and fasting. A dedicated student of history, philosophy, mysticism, and religion, Sarah is always searching for common ground and generating new ways to speak about timeless wisdom. Selfistry-Sarah's contribution to the field of human development-appeals to intelligent, disillusioned, secularized, and globalized individuals in these modern times. Sarah enjoys spending time creating art and wandering in nature. She loves traveling worldwide to continually learn and expand her views. She and her husband Steven live in Oakland, California, close to their three granddaughters who continually inspire Sarah's hope for humanity's future.
