Learning To Dance Inside: Getting to the Heart of Meditation – A Wise and Helpful Spiritual Approach from a Former Trappist Monk (Harvest Book)

In this wise and refreshing little book, a former Trappist monk describes the spiritual goals and everyday rewards of meditation-an approach that “is infinitely more helpful and inspiring than the usual and expected treatises on the subject” (Publishers Weekly).

George Fowler was a writer, lecturer and teacher who specialized in spiritual growth. A former Trappist Monk and priest for over two decades and holder of several advanced academic degrees, Fowler applied his expertise to helping people realize their potential for fulfillment and inner growth within their individual belief systems. After marrying a nun and reluctantly leaving organized religion, Fowler worked fifteen years for the defense industry, first counseling Vietnam returnees and later designing nuclear weapons security. His work as a radio commentator, syndicated columnist and lecturer focused on self-empowerment and meditation. Fowler also founded and directed the National Foundation for Healing Religious Abuse. He died at the age of 71 in January 2000.
