From the New York Times bestselling author of Pussy: A Reclamation comes a radical curriculum for claiming your full radiance - by first claiming your darkness.
You have been strong for so long. You have soldiered on. But the world is crumbling. Your carefully constructed life may be too. Inside you, a voice is asking: What if surrendering is not defeat - but the most powerful thing you have ever done?
In On Our Knees, New York Times bestselling author Regena Thomashauer faces this question head-on. Here is her reckoning - with loss, with darkness, with the goddess and with herself - in the most daring, most intimate and most essential book of her life.
Weaving her own raw story with ten goddess archetypes - Aphrodite, Kali, Inanna, Lilith and more - Mama Gena reveals the hidden curriculum of every woman's darkest chapter: That surrender is not the end of power. It is the doorway to it. Discover:
- Why the word "fine" is toxic for a woman's soul and the pleasure practice that breaks the spell
- The erotic science behind why pleasure is the most radical act of healing
- Ten goddess archetypes, each for a different kind of undoing: heartbreak, rage, exile, longing for love
- The Courtesan's Journey - eroticizing your darkest material into forward momentum
