By: Joan ChittisterThe activist, nun, and esteemed spiritual voice who has twice appeared on Oprah Winfrey’s Super Soul Sunday sounds the call to create a monastery within ourselves—to cultivate wisdom and resilience so that we may join God in the work of renewal, restoration, and justice right where we are.
“Essential reading for anyone wishing to find the compass of their heart and the wellspring from which to live fully.”—Gregory Boyle, founder of Homeboy Industries and New York Times bestselling author of Tattoos on the Heart
“In every beating heart is a silent undercurrent that calls each of us to a place unknown, to the vision of a wiser life, to become what I feel I must be—but cannot name.” So begins Sister Joan Chittister’s words on monasticism, offering a way of living and seeing life that brings deep human satisfaction. Amid the astounding disruptions of normalcy that have unfolded in our world, Sister Joan calls all of us to cultivate the spiritual seeker within, however that may look across our diverse journeys: “We can depend only on the depth of the spiritual well in us. The well is the only thing that can save us from the fear of our own frailty.”
This book carries the weight and wisdom of the monastic spiritual tradition into the twenty-first century. Sister Joan leans into Saint Benedict, who, as a young man in the sixth century, sought moral integrity in the face of an empire not by conquering or overpowering the empire but by simply living an ordinary life extraordinarily well. This same monastic mindset can help us grow in wisdom, equanimity, and strength of soul as we seek restoration and renewal both at home and in the world.
At a time when people around the world are bearing witness to human frailty—and, simultaneously, the endurance of the human spirit—The Monastic Heart invites readers of all walks to welcome this end of certainty and embrace a new beginning of our faith. Without stepping foot in a monastery, we can become, like those before us, a deeper, freer self, a richer soul—and, as a result, a true monastic, so “that in all things God may be glorified.”

Love these
Size: 11.5 Wide, Color: White
For a plus size, tall woman that feet swell these sandals were perfect.They were not tight.They're very comfortable.The straps adjust perfectly and have a little bit of stretch in them.I was able to walk with them with no issue.They actually have great traction on the bottom.And surprisingly very durable.

Super comfortable and extremely flattering
Size: 9.5, Color: Black
Love! Love! Love!
Even though they are very flat sandals, the soul has just enough cushion to feel like you’re walking on a cloud. I also love the location of the straps. As someone with bunions, they cover them perfectly and make my feet look attractive while not being completely covered.

Comfortable at first, but didn’t hold up long-term
Size: 8, Color: Tan
The size felt true and the feel was comfortable right out of the box. I liked the softness of the footbed, and the wearability was good for everyday errands and casual outings at first.
Unfortunately, after about six months of regular use, they started falling apart. While the versatility was nice and the thickness felt fine for warm weather, the overall durability just wasn’t there. They’re okay for short-term use, but I wouldn’t expect them to last long.

Great quality
Size: 10, Color: Tan
Great quality leather sandals I bought to replace a worn out pair. They are comfortable and not stiff. Hoping the rubber sole lasts a long time. They look nice with jeans, shorts or casual dresses.

Beautiful, well priced, and no discomfort!
Size: 6.5, Color: Taupe, Size: 6.5, Color: Taupe
My daughter wore these for her HS graduation ceremony. So beautiful, well priced, and she never complained about any pain or discomfort. The only downside was that she got an X tanned on her feet! 😆 So put sunscreen on your feet before wearing these.
