Tao
and Defiant
The beginning of a movement
The
philosophy behind the Tao and defiant movement began as a personal quest
for me:
I wanted to discover just what it was that allowed some women to face
their life transitions with joy and grace, while others were less successful
at confronting the same challenges.
After holding numerous workshops and seminars, and conversing with women
from around the country, I learned that those who were most content
with their lives – at any age – were women who combined
a Tao philosophy with a healthy dose of defiance.
An understanding of Taoism allowed them to recognize that we are all
one with nature and that our lives are going to follow a natural path.
Fighting that fact only brings stress and unhappiness.
A defiant attitude added to that Tao philosophy endows them with the
necessary skills to deal with these changes in a positive and healthy
manner.
The lessons that these Tao and defiant women taught me were so powerful
and valuable to me in my life, that I realized they must be shared with
others.
And, thus, began the writing of my book: TAO OF THE DEFIANT WOMAN
I
am very proud to announce that the second edition of the book will be on
bookstore shelves everywhere as of October 2007.
And
I am now in the midst of doing research for my next book: TAO AND
DYNAMIC - a book for girls 11-14.
You
can also find the Spanish edition - in Mexico, Latin America and right
here on our website: EL TAO DE LA MUJER DESEFIANTE.
