Your soul is an inner universe: vast, mysterious, powerful. Yet no aspect of the psyche is more neglected than the soul. Distinguished scholar, teacher, and theologian Thomas Moore leads us to the furthest reaches of this complex realm on Soul Life. From the ashes of the Renaissance, Moore has revived the concept of the soul and studied its intricacies. Now he shares with us a series of ideas that can deepen our everyday experience.

According to Thomas Moore, people today have lost the deep, direct, and vivid sense of what it means to live with passion and with originality and that beneath the ideas of who we are and who we should be lies an original self. The fifty meditations in this collection offer fresh interpretations of living with that original self rather than conformity.

With compassion and insight, Thomas Moore offers a compelling case for an easier, lighter way of moving through life by experiencing the peace, calm, and openness of emptiness. Through ancient and modern stories, Moore gently shows that our constant multitasking may not be getting us anywhere, and that emptiness is not a lack but an invitation that can be our greatest teacher. A daily awareness and appreciation of the quiet spaciousness in our world and our own lives is not a retreat from reality but a rich and full welcome to all that is most meaningful and real.

In our age of science and psychology, it's tempting to think of human sexuality in terms of biology and interpersonal relationships. But in The Soul of Sex, Thomas Moore regards sex as an experience of the soul and emphasizes the more human themes of fantasy, desire, meaning, and morality. Moore turns especially to the religious traditions of the world, to rites, stories, and visual imagery that see in sex some of the most profound mysteries of life. He finds spirituality inherent in sex, and at the same time explores the many ways in which spiritual values can sometimes wound our sexuality.

Drawing on faiths from all over the world as well as from his own vast well of knowledge and personal experience, Moore shows how religion can be used to embrace others rather than exclude them. He helps us become comfortable with our doubts and reveals a liberating truth - it is in the dark corners of the soul that faith is born. Intimate and provocative, Moore writes with the compassion of a parent and the wisdom of a teacher.

The New York Times best-selling author and trusted spiritual adviser offers a follow up to his classic Care of the Soul. Something essential is missing from modern life.

Writing, according to Thomas Moore, is sacred practice. Though we often don't think of it in these terms, everything we write - whether a love letter or a shopping list - connects us to the classic tradition of logos, or word.

Illness is about life and death, fear and hope, love and conflict, spirit and body. And yet, the healthcare system is not structured around these considerations—our doctors and other medical professionals are not trained to deal with the whole person.
