I teach and live as fully as I can, embodied love. A primary source of this embodiment for me is through practicing and leading guided meditations or journeys that open us to vast internal worlds of love, joy and body bliss. This kind of creative mediation is a sacred form of worship for me. I call it “experiential mysticism”, not rooted in any particular religion or metaphysics, but in a visceral experience of the body’s capacity for experiencing ecstasy and a sacred union between the human and divine.
I had the great delight of experiencing a class led by Sofiah at a conference. I fell in love with her; her presence, teaching, beauty and grace. She is a pioneer of body bliss and creative expression. Bless her.
