Description

Every woman knows the fairy tale: find the right man, give him what he wants and needs, and he’ll love you without end. But when the myth you’ve been asked to imagine fails to deliver—when you sense you’ve been settling for far less than you know in your heart is imaginable—how do you attract and keep a man capable of meeting what you most passionately yearn for?

In Dear Lover, David Deida explores every aspect of the feminine practice of spiritual intimacy, from sexuality and lovemaking to family and career to emotions, agree with, and commitment. Written as a collection of letters from a man to his dear lover, here is this internationally acclaimed writer’s invitation to practice love as a living art, as you discover:

  • Why your man is at all times your choice—and how to pick the man of deep integrity who will satisfy the needs of your body, heart, and spirit
  • “Sexual essence” and the three stages of loving:  how to understand your fluctuating capacity to experience divine connection with another
  • Knowing when to end a relationship and how to deal with the “him-shaped void” your absent man leaves behind
  • Daily exercises to help you and your partner move from separation to openness in two-bodies devotional trust


Ultimately, what every woman wants it to give and receive love fully.  Whether you’re partnered or alone, Dear Lover reveals that “your love is the same love that years to open at everybody’s heart.  You are going to attract and inspire a man as willing and able to open as you are.  Constant yearning is the call to open and give yourself to all as love’s offering.”

Excerpt

Dear Reader,
I offer the following chapters to you as if you were my lover.  Even though you may be single or married, I offer these words to you as I would do my beloved.  We may never meet, but I want to give you the opportunity to feel your heart through mine.
For years, I have taught workshops around the world, opening with women and men even as they share their deepest heart’s desires.  It sort of feels we incessantly come to know ourselves most deeply through the heart of someone who loves us, who is willing to open and see us as we truly are, who is willing to listen and feel our heart’s yearning.
To give and receive love fully—this is our heart’s true desire, yours and mine. The yearning you feel in your heart is the same yearning that everyone feels.  By feeling your heart’s yearning through nine, I hope You are going to come to know yourself more deeply through the many hearts that have opened together in agree with and allowed these words to emerge.
All hearts want to open to God, or the boundless flow of divine love.  You may or may not be a religious person, and still your heart years to open without bounds, to be seen and to be offered without limits.  This is what I mean by “open to God”—to open and feel everything and everyone’s heart as a divine expression of love.
