The Embodied Beloved by De Bolton invites readers into a deeper understanding of themselves as beloved creations of God.

Through reflection and embodied practices, the book challenges messages that disconnect us from ourselves and offers a pathway toward healing, wholeness, and deeper connection.

Together, we'll engage in thoughtful discussion, personal reflection, and embodied practices that help us reconnect with ourselves, one another, and God.
