The Sacred Vessel: Loving And Living In Your Body

The Sacred Vessel: Loving And Living In Your Body
By Jojo Penwood
In a world that teaches us to critique, control, and commodify our bodies, The Sacred Vessel offers a radical homecoming. Jojo Penwood invites readers into a lyrical, soul-stirring journey of reconnection—where the body is not a project to fix but a temple to honor, a partner to cherish, and a living archive of wisdom.
Through poetic reflections, ancient spiritual insights, and cutting-edge science, Penwood dismantles the cultural myths that have estranged us from our flesh. From the Vedic koshas to the geometry of cathedrals encoded in our anatomy, from trauma-informed healing to the sacred rhythms of breath and rest, this book reclaims the body as a site of devotion, resistance, and transformation.
Whether you're navigating illness, aging, body shame, or simply seeking deeper embodiment, The Sacred Vessel is a guide to loving your body not in spite of its imperfections, but because of its miraculous complexity. It's a manifesto for embodied living—and a prayer for collective healing.
