I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily. I loved the dedication, it was a heart touching start to the book which gives a great balance between information with questions and practical applications. I like the way in which the book places more control back in our hands with what we can control such as different meditation practices, body scans, critical reflection, transformative movements, and practising generative conflict as the things that we often need to work towards liberation for typically feel completely out of our control. I thought it was interesting to see who wrote each bit, seeing the way in which the collaboration worked, as it's not something I’m used to seeing with other collaborations I’ve read. I appreciated the helpful resources at the end such as yoga, and somatics websites and how the notes have been split up into introduction and the 3 parts instead of just one big list.

Practicing Liberation Workbook is a well-thought-out and well-written workbook for activists, carers, teachers, leaders, everyone.
The workbook starts with tools which can be implemented for everyone to practice mindfulness, and becomes more detailed and curated towards social change makers. Yet, pretty much all of the tools, methods, tips can be practiced by everyone who wish to work on their inner peace.

I must say that I am not a believer of Kundalini, chakras or new age healing, but even with my skepticism towards such, I found this book to be useful, lovely to read, and enjoyed the majority of the exercises. The tone of the writing and the graphs made this workbook a more engaging read for me.

Love this book. Beautiful work and collaboration that exemplifies the community-building the book aims to encourage. Additionally well-structured, gives credit where credit is due, and breaks down the exercises in digestible way; not repetitive/cumbersome. I look forward to this being made available for movements everywhere. This is truly critical reading for all organizers, in my opinion.
