FAN & READER REVIEWS

I just can't get enough of Spiritually for Badasses! It truly has helped open my eyes and I can't thank you enough! Highly recommend.Kim Goetz

One of few books on spirituality that has successfully held my attention Jamie

Spirituality for Badasses gives you a genuine and realistic approach to spirituality. It gives you a practical and honest guidance towards becoming a spiritual badass by removing the formality and handing you a jolt of awareness. Yvette Alvarado

It is an awesome book and J. answers a lot of life's questions while managing to tell you 'like it is' without fear. He just writes what everyone thinks but is afraid to say on such a touchy topic. Loren Gentry

FINALLY -someone who writes the words to make sense of the madness in my head! Thank you! Joanna

This book is what is needed for this time. Too many times spirituality is looked upon as something stuffy and boring. Read this book and get the f*** over it! David Byrd-Fournier

One bad ass book which has helped me to start to unlock my own inner bad ass. Phillip Iverson

Finally got to read it all! Im so excited to read more. I love how simple you keep everything! Soo much I am learning. Keep up the amazing work!!! Ill be waiting for more! Anon

I enjoyed the irreverent style and tongue in cheek tone. It has given me some new perspectives on a subject that interests me and I will definitely put them into practice. I look forward to reading the rest. Thank you for the preview! Courtney Wilson

You ask, I deliver: A paradoxical cluster-fuck-a-thon, whack-amole, corn-hole, soul-tormenting dilemma-surprise, which lasts until the end of days. Thank you, I am so looking forward to your book ! Robyn Kauffman

Awesomeness! It really is an enjoyable read and I dig your energy; you're very much my type of person. No holds barred honesty and some funny funny shit. Thanks for being so gracious! I look forward to buying the completed book when you're finished. Starr Anderson

I loved your book. I am an F bomb mom, my spirit animal is deadpool. So, I totally dug itI look forward to reading the rest of the book. Great job. Thank you for putting it out there. Mindy Rabon

5 STARS all the way! James Edward Mack Jr

Read right away in one sitting and was blown away. Mostly by the writing style but also by the fact that there is too much fluffy writing out there about (spirituality) enlightenment. Id rate it Two thumbs and two big toes up. Keep it up and cant wait to read the finished book. Chris Taylor

PROFESSIONAL REVIEWS

In his new book, Spirituality for Badasses, J. Stewart Dixon has written an irreverent, exuberant, free-wheeling, stream-of-consciousness saga that chronicles the spiritual journey in ways that are unique, humorous, challenging and a hell of a lot of fun.

Gone are the heavy-handed, esoteric pontifications so often included in books about living like a spiritual warrior and, instead, J. focuses more on de-mystifying this eternal quest by successfully normalizing its ordinariness.

So, buckle up and be prepared for a wild ride thats readable, accessible and eminently relatable. Two enthusiastic thumbs up! Highly recommended! Chuck Hillig, Licensed Psychotherapist, Spiritual Teacher & Author of Enlightenment for Beginners, The Way IT Is, Seeds for the Soul, Looking for God, and The Magic King

Spirituality for Badasses is The Way of the Peaceful Warrior for the rebels among us who are tired of sickly-sweet approaches to spirituality and have a sincere need to laugh out loud on the regular.

J. Stewart Dixon is a true original Hes your irreverent, potty-mouthed best friend and big brother, but dont let the humor fool you: the teachings offered here are profoundly liberating, important pointers to awakened awareness. Dixon teaches us all to en-LIGHTEN-UP with his special blend of hilarious, profound, crazy-ass wisdom.
