Jo Bowlby is a world-renowned Shaman, coach and mentor. She has studied ancient teachings around the globe for thirty years and used that life-changing wisdom to help clients from celebrities to CEOs to find happiness, purpose and meaning in their modern lives. Now Jo is sharing the profound insights that underpin her powerful work.
In A Book for Life Jo explains the foundations of 'spiritual intelligence’, which is the first measure of wellbeing. People with well-developed spiritual intelligence are able to enjoy happier times more fully and face tougher times with greater resilience.
Jo leads her readers through a 10-step process to develop and fully understand spiritual intelligence. She includes quick and easy practices for dealing with anxiety, stress and feeling overwhelmed. She provides gentle steps towards finding a deep sense of connection and peace for those times when we feel alone, hollow or depressed. Jo believes that we need to develop our spiritual intelligence by exercising this often-overlooked ‘muscle’ which is so important if we are to keep our minds healthy.
Jo explains: “In this book I share what I consider to be the best life-enhancing skills that I have learnt from my time spent with some extraordinary wise men and women around the world over the last thirty years: Shamans living high in the Andes, medicine men and women in the Amazon rainforest, Buddhist scholars in India, mystics, gurus, philosophers and psychologists, all dedicated to sharing their wisdom on the art of life. Through these encounters I was able to gather a body of timeless wisdom which has underpinned my client work.
I want to share effective ways of how to really flourish in life - despite the pace and demands of the modern world and perhaps more importantly show the reader how to quickly regain their footing when life knocks them off balance. Everything in this book has been tried and tested over thousands of years. The practices work, and this is why more and more people are turning to the ancient spiritual traditions to help them in their lives today.”
Jo Bowlby’s practice as a Shaman grew out of a life-long interest in both ancient spiritual disciplines and modern psychology. She has trained in North and South American Shamanism, Tibetan Buddhism, Bön, Zen, Daoism, The Yoga Sutras and Qi gong. She holds a black belt in Shōtōkan Karate. Jo has been initiated as a Shaman by the Q’ero elders (Inka Shaman) in Peru and given healers' rites by the late Maestro Panduro - a well-respected medicine man in the Amazon rainforest. She is a very highly sought after therapist. Jo is based in London but with clients around the world. A Book for Life is her first book.
