Publisher's summary

In this courageous, leading-edge book, Jeff Brown takes us on the spiritual ride of a lifetime. In Part One, we join him on an engaging, often hilarious, and compelling personal journey through decades of tasting from a banquet of spiritual approaches. Through his direct experience, fierce exploration, and scintillating discernment, Brown exposes the fragmented, ungrounded, and dissociative notions of spirituality that have imprisoned our consciousness and obstructed our awakening since time immemorial. In his cuttingly straight style, he reveals that much of what we have been calling "spirituality" is actually a patriarchal, emotionally bereft construct that perpetuates our self-avoidance. He then proves to us - point by brilliant point - that true spirituality is a whole-being awakening that wonderfully embraces our entire human experience.

In Part Two of Grounded Spirituality, Brown engages in a riveting dialogue with an ungrounded seeker named "Michael." Their dialogues unfurl in warmth, humor, playfulness, and personal story, threaded with challenging confrontation and cutting truth. Hands-on exercises are dispersed throughout, providing listeners with a direct experience of a new, inclusive model. Here the author lays down the tracks for a more balanced, heartfelt, and relational spirituality - one that leaves us "enrealed", integrated, and purposeful.

Validation and Verification! Listen Now!!

This book brought me to my knees in thanksgiving with the validation of my own awarenesses of my lifelong experiences of intense "spiritual" bypassing while being abused in every way possible. After listening non-stop, I regained the energy and courage to continue to become embodied along with the bravery to continue to stand for myself legally and financially. Look for me on the public stage of activism.

A message that everyone needs to hear

I first came in contact with Jeff's material through his quotes that he shares on Instagram and wanted to check out one of his books. Grounded Spirituality was the first one I have ever read/listened to.

Much like the quotes he shares on social medial, the book follows true to form. What I love about Jeff and this book is that it doesn't offer a quick fix to transforming yourself and instead offers a method grounded in your body and bodily emotions.

About 5 years ago, without really even knowing what somatic therapy was, I started therapy with a therapist that did brain spotting. I have been going about every 2 weeks since then and it has changed my life. Jeff's process reaffirms mine - getting into my body saved my life, my marriage, and made me a better father.

While I found he and Michael's conversation a bit corny at times (I was never a meditator), Jeff's message is truly a humanistic approach. As a man, father, war vet, and husband, I recommend this book whole heartedly.

Spot On!!

Finally a reflection of the shared humanistic world and beauty and struggle of inner transformation - smack dab in the middle of human experience and human reality - where spirituality and love resides uniquely in us all. Beautifully crafted and narrated.

An Authentic Path To Love

This book in my view is essential for anyone on a spiritual path, as well as a healing path. Jeff eloquently weaves the two together to form an authentic, somatic path to healing the heart and past traumas. This is the basis for a new type of spirituality that is not only practical but based in neuroscience. I cannot recommend it enough for anyone on the journey of self discovery.

Life changing

If you’re ready to really look at self and your place win the collective, this book is for you. If you’re unwilling to hear real raw truth, you may not be ready. A lot of uncomfortable moments. Totally worth them

Life changing stuff

Extremely well written and engaging, and so on point. I found this so validating as to why I've walked away from my intense journey into nondualism and toward earth spirituality and personal healing and empowerment. It also opened up deep seated feelings about my past with nondualism that needed to be brought up to feel and heal. I highly recommend this for everyone, but especially those like me who have fallen off the nondualism wagon because they just can't keep abandoning themselves any longer and are ready to finally LIVE. I'm very grateful to have read this. It was an important part of my own journey.

Yes

Jeff discoveries mirror my own but I have seldom had the courage to shout them from the rooftops to a large audience. After listening to this book it was encouraging me to find that courage, ignite it, and swallow that flame to empower my words and let them leap from my soul. Heartfelt appreciation to you Jeff Brown.

Resonance

Seeing myself as an ‘ease finder’ I’m intentionally choosing and embracing, tho often with agonizing and at times debilitating resistance within all my bodies, a path within I admit is most confronting to my core.. the growth I’m experiencing as my personal life design revealing is for me equally unavoidable. Listening to your recording of Grounded Spirituality is of course timely, no coincidence 😊, and received in gratefulness in my expanding awareness into my heart. It’s as if we’ve already met, blessings and thank you 🙏🏽💫

Absolutely awesome read!!!

I cannot say enough about Jeff Brown! I love all of his work! Authenticity is the only manner in which to live.

Jeff is a Truth Speaker

Jeff’s wisdom, teachings, and personal experience validate the title of his book. This is a must read for all who have been searching for an integrative approach for healing in order to be present and truly live our truths in this journey of life.
