In this book, the author shares the story of her personal spiritual learning quest and the specific strategies that were effective for her spiritual growth. During a particularly demanding time of her life, Linda felt a longing for peace and spiritual connectedness. In those very busy days, she questioned whether she was following the Great Commandment to "love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength" (Luke 10:27). She was dissatisfied with the lack of spiritual growth she experienced in the habits of praying silently and passively reading devotionals. Learning to love God with heart, soul, mind, and strength became a focus of private study and journaling, which led to this book. Linda began integrating short, practical routines throughout her days, creating several brief periods of daily spiritual connectedness. Utilizing multisensory learning strategies that she used with her students, she discovered more meaning in her spiritual life. She concluded that part of loving God fully means loving him more actively as opposed to having a passive and lukewarm relationship with God. Linda feels passionate about sharing these multisensory teaching methods for personal spiritual growth--evidence-based effective strategies that are widely used in academic settings but are rarely used in spiritual learning. The author suggests practical ideas for connecting with God throughout busy days, ways requiring more involvement and more mental focus. Also, Linda offers spiritual learning ideas, which address individual differences in learning styles and types of intelligence as opposed to the same methods for everyone. Following the ideas in this book will keep your mind more focused on your relationship with God throughout the routines of your day while bringing more passion to your spiritual learning.

An essential guide to expand your spiritual practices for followers of Norse Paganism, Heathenry, Asatru, and other Northern Traditions. Northern Tradition for the Solitary Practitioner is a groundbreaking look at devotional work in religions from Theodism to Asatru to Norse Paganism, all of which comprise the umbrella of the Northern Tradition. Although interest in devotional and experiential work within these traditions has been growing rapidly in the past few years, this is the first book to show the diverse scope of such practices as a living, modern-day religion. It features an in-depth exploration of altar work, prayer, prayer beads, ritual work, sacred images, and lore, and a thorough examination of common cosmology that forms the foundation of belief for Northern Tradition communities and related Heathen practices. Northern Tradition for the Solitary Practitioner is not denomination-specific: rather, it seeks to provide an entry into interior practice for anyone involved in a branch of this broad family of traditions of the ancient Norse, Germanic, and Saxon peoples, using material suitable for the solitary, independent practitioner. Those outside of the Northern Tradition who wish to deepen their own devotional practice will find this book helpful in their own work, as well.
