Synopsis

* Jean Bolen will be presenting at the UN Commission on the Status of Women March 4th - March 15th advocating for a 5th Conference on Women (5WCW) * A sequel to The Millionth Circle (9781573241762), 30,000 copies in print MOVING TOWARD THE MILLIONTH CIRCLE is a sequel to the author's popular The Millionth Circle (1999) with a slightly different focus. Her first book describes how real change happens when a critical number of people adopt a new perspective with how-to sections on ways to create women's circles with a sacred centre. While still about women's circles, her new book focuses more on activism and how these circles can help to sustain and support women working for change in their lives and in the world. In this brief, yet profound book, Jean Bolen inspires women and others to follow a path with soul, to take on a personal assignment that contributes to change, while relying on the support of a circle or circles of likeminded individuals. The strength that comes from those circles feeds the activism and the activism makes the circles stronger. MOVING TOWARD THE MILLIONTH CIRCLE is about heart-centred activism. The metaphoric millionth circle is the tipping point into a post-patriarchal era, based on the premise that when a critical number of people change their perspective and behaviour, a new era can begin. Drawn from Dr. Bolen's work with the United Nations and her experiences with His Holiness the Dalai Lama and women from all walks of life all around the world, this book is poetical, practical and political.

About this title

Review:

"No one has done more than Jean Shinoda Bolen to awaken the global heart. With Moving Toward the Millionth Circle, she continues to inspire and direct the spiritual uprising of women around the world." --Marianne Williamson--Reviews

"I believe that heartcentered feminine activism can change the world, and I agree with Jean Bolen that now is the time to do it. In her book, she describes how every woman can be supported by a circle of friends with a sacred center, and how circles multiply their spiritual and political energy toward a tipping point." --Isabel Allende--Reviews

"My personal tribute to Dr. Bolen for highlighting the need for implementing the UN Security Council resolution 1325 adopted in 2000 which recognizes how women would contribute to peace and security. I wish a wider readership and deeper absorption of the wonderful contents of her book. Dr. Jean Shinoda Bolen has contributed substantively to the everincreasing focus of recent years on women's empowerment and equality and the importance of their participation at all decisionmaking levels. Her rich personal experience, perception, and perspective have made the book truly engaging." --Ambassador Anwarul K. Chowdhury, Former UnderSecretary General of the United Nations--Reviews
