Sera Beak

Sera J. Beak is a Harvard trained scholar of comparative religions and mysticism and an intrepid spiritual cowgirl who’s spent the last dozen years traveling the world exploring spirituality–from whirling with Sufi dervishes to meeting the Dalai Lama on her 21st birthday; from taking the host from a Croatian Catholic mystic who had the stigmata (truly) to having life-altering visions with a shaman, and just about everything in between. She’s lived in Atlanta, Chicago, New York, Cambridge, India, Nepal, Tibet, and Turkey, and now resides in San Francisco. She’s as comfortable talking about the pagan history of religious traditions, energy healing, and esoteric metaphysics, as I am about designer jeans, sex toys, and holistic health.

Her first book, The Red Book: A Deliciously Unorthodox Approach To Igniting Your Divine Spark, was published in the summer of 2006 (Jossey-Bass). Current projects include starting a Redvolution, writing a Red series, holding Redvolution Workshops and making a Redvolution film.

Sera Beak

Sera Beak is a world-traveled, Harvard-trained scholar of comparative religion who’s spent the last dozen years traveling the world exploring spirituality –from whirling with Sufi dervishes to meeting the Dalai Lama on her 21st birthday; from taking the host from a Croatian Catholic mystic who had the stigmata (truly) to having life-altering visions with a shaman, and just about everything in between (she now happily deems herself a “spiritual cowgirl”). The Red Book: A Deliciously Unorthodox Approach To Igniting Your Divine Spark is her first book. She has also written for the Let’s Go Travel Guide series, Bootyparlor.com and Beliefnet.com. She’s as comfortable talking about Muslim women in Iraq, the pagan history of religious traditions, and the extreme need for religious tolerance in this day and age, as she is about designer jeans, vibrators, and the latest celebrity breakup. Sera is called “a woman who is hands down the freshest, boldest breath of fresh air spirituality has heard, read or seen in decades” by Maureen Moss, author, motivational speaker, and radio host of worldpuja.org [Read more]
