Exploring Spirituality Through My Summer Reading List

As the days grow longer and the sun warms our skin, there's nothing quite like diving into a good book that stirs the soul and expands the mind. This summer, I'm excited to share a few gems from my reading list that have resonated deeply with me as both an author and a spiritual seeker.First on my list is Finding Soul on the Path of Orisa (A West African Spiritual Tradition) by Tobe Melora Correal. This book is a profound journey into the heart of Orisa spirituality, offering insights into how ancient African wisdom can guide us in modern times. Correal's writing is both accessible and rich, making it a perfect summer read for anyone interested in exploring the spiritual traditions of West Africa. Next, I'm delving into The Wisdom Of The Native Americans edited by Kent Nerburn. This collection of Native American teachings and stories provides a window into the deep connection between the indigenous peoples of North America and the earth. It's a book that invites reflection and a greater appreciation for the wisdom of those who have walked this land long before us. Finally, I'm revisiting Cherokee Proud by Tony Mack McClure. As someone with Cherokee ancestry, this book holds a special place in my heart. McClure's work is a guide for those seeking to connect with their Cherokee roots, offering a blend of history, genealogy, and personal stories. It’s an invaluable resource for anyone looking to honor their heritage and keep the spirit of the Cherokee people alive.These books have been more than just summer reading—they’ve been gateways to understanding, connection, and spiritual growth. I encourage you to explore these works by these incredible authors, whether you’re seeking knowledge, inspiration, or simply a good read to accompany your summer days.Dive into these books and let them enrich your summer. Happy reading!
