"Rivvy's del
"A sacred life requires no ashrams or mountaintops, according to author Rivvy Neshama, who calls her stories from life "recipes." She honors her mother's nearly blank recipe book who, like the author, "wasn't much of a cook" in "Recipes for a Sacred Life: True Stories and a Few Miracles, " giving shape to a bright promise of awakening that comes from simple ingredients and life's most everyday moments--sunrises, walks, animals, neighbors, parents, being a grandparent, and making lists. The author's inspiration ranges widely, from the Desiderata to the Chinese New Year, from Jewish Shabbat to a Rosh Hashanah forgiveness rite learned from Shakti Gawain. With her goal to add to the "wonder, love, and sacredness of your life," these stories provide gentle nudges for waking up to a spiritual path. The tales carry a resonance similar to healing stories from Rachel Naomi Remen's "Kitchen Table Wisdom." - "ForeWord Magazine," November 8, 2013

"Neshama's stories are uplifting, witty, and wise: one can't go wrong with a recipe like that. The timeless wisdom she serves up is food for the soul. - "Publishers Weekly"
Reseña del editor
When Rivvy Neshama was twenty-two and about to get married, her mother gave her a book of handwritten recipes that taught her how to make a good roast — but not much else. And no one gave her the recipe to make a good marriage or a good life. That took years of searching on a path with many turns.
Now, like a handwritten recipe book, Recipes for a Sacred Life is passing on the most meaningful and inspiring stories from the author’s life. From birth to death and in between; from dancing to forgiveness to sacred sex; and from a rabbi from Vienna to Irish Rita from the Bronx, they feature people and experiences that taught the author how to live a good life — one touched with sacredness. And, as it turned out, the best recipes came from her mom.
Written with heart and humor and steeped in ancient wisdom, these short, true tales reveal how ordinary encounters — with friends, nature, lovers, and strangers — can suddenly connect us with the sacred, adding love, joy, and purpose to our lives.
In the spirit of Anne Lamott, Mitch Albom, and Rachel Naomi Remen, Recipes for a Sacred Life is luminous and uplifting — a gift for all.
