Book Description

'Girls Don't Ride Motorbikes – A Spiritual Adventure Into Life's Labyrinth' chronicles a modern day pilgrimage in which Dorit Brauer embarks onto a 7,430 mile solo motorcycle adventure across the US to walk labyrinths. On her journey, Dorit recounts poetic life stories spanning her youth on a dairy farm in Germany, a 10-week solo backpacking trip in Brazil, the turmoil of living in Tel Aviv, to her most recent chronicles in the United States. As Dorit travels cross-country from labyrinth to labyrinth, these stories are woven together intricately to provide insights allowing the reader to reflect on their own spiritual journey.The title of the book, 'Girls Don't Ride Motorbikes,' comes from a mantra of Dorit's youth, embedded into her mind by her father. Born from very traditional parents with their own expectations, Dorit had the courage to make her own path. She pursued everything she wasn't supposed to do and found adventure and true fulfillment in life. She is living her best life and through her example inspires everyone else to listen to their inner yearnings and follow the voice of their hearts. British labyrinth expert and author Sig Lonegren, says 'Girls Don't Ride Motorbikes – A Spiritual Adventure Into Life's Labyrinth' feels like a gentle overview of alternative thinking wrapped in a 'Travels with Charley' (Steinbeck) package.“Dorit Brauer has written a very readable and informative narrative of her experiences while walking a number of different labyrinths. Unlike most of us who walk blindly through most of our lives, these are paths where life is present. She also exposes the reader to a number of other techniques that can be used to enhance the possibility of spiritual connection. If you don't know much about these magical single-path tools, this is a great place to start - and it's a good refresher for those who have already been walking them for a while.”- Sig Lonegren, Author of 'Labyrinths: Ancient Myths & Modern Uses'
