Publisher's summary

"Each new day is a singular moment, a singular opportunity. No day is like the last and no day is like what’s to come. We have arrived, and we are simultaneously arriving.”

In this expansive debut, A Recipe for More: Choosing a Life of Pleasure and Abundance, creative, host, and "pleasure doula" Sara Elise offers a profound and challenging inquiry into the forces that keep us in a state of survival and limitation and asks us to consider a new way to live. Sara Elise leaves us with what it means to be present to what’s unfolding around us and open to the change that is possible in that empty space.

A Recipe for More is a quest to examine the ingredients of our lives, those essential components that make up our days. Have we chosen rest, breath, movement, agency, visibility, play, and pleasure? Or are we trapped in the numbing and violent pattern of self-inflicted suffering? Do we celebrate the unique and precious wiring of our brains? Are our relationships a garden of ever-growing and evolving roots? Do we nourish our bodies with what it requires to sense and receive? Are we liberated, awakened, and alive? In the tradition of Adrienne Maree Brown and Sonya Renee Taylor, A Recipe for More is a radical argument for dismantling the systems that oppress us. But it begins with the individual, and the simple recipe of our every day.

Groundbreaking, persuasive, inclusive, and warm, A Recipe for More brings the ingredients of an abundant life to all listeners so that we might honor ourselves, deepen our communities, and finally be present in each miraculous and life-giving singular moment.

With contributions by Fariha Róisín, Tourmaline, Tatyana Fazlalizadeh, Ryann Holmes (bklyn boihood), Naima Green, J Wortham, and more.

A Treasure

At this time in my life, I really needed this book and the lessons in it. I needed the gentle reminder that life is truly a gift and I am the master of my own and I have my own unique gifts and genius that I want to access and share with the world. I am so grateful to Sara Elise for laying down a blueprint for us to face our fears, open ourselves to living in our zone of genius, and bring in abundance in our lives. She has a very unique and powerful voice. She brilliantly and bravely expresses her own lived experience and calls on the experiences, thoughts, and reflections of some really amazing people from her communities’ to help create a profound and delicious recipe for more. She really digs deep and is intensely transparent in her book so that others may benefit and tap into the abundance awaiting for them. One thing that really stood out for me is that, regardless of race, ethnicity, ability, sexual orientation, gender, religion, and any other differences that we may have, there are universal truths and lessons in “A Recipe for More” that transcend our differences and can resonate with us all. I am truly grateful for this book and would highly recommend it to anyone that wants more for their life.

Just what I needed to hear

This book felt like a warm conversation with a nurturing friend. The author openly and honestly shared and gifted us with insightful, meaningful and “juicy” perspective on a way to exist. I personally could relate to a lot of what she wrote and am grateful to have experienced it.
