America's Daughter
In America's Daughter, the second book of the trilogy, the author arrives in the United States in the company of Catherine Murray, an American high-school teacher. Her adjustment to a new culture includes shocking doses of American-style racial discrimination and Nhambu's discovery that she must learn to be a Black American. She graduates from college, thus fulfilling her dream of becoming a teacher, and teaches high school in the inner city. She marries, has two children, and establishes herself in the American way of life. Then a visit to Africa, and especially to Tanzania, reawakens the drumbeats and dancing that she carries in her soul. On her return home, she teaches Swahili and African Studies, performs African dance at schools, and creates Aerobics With Soul(R), a fitness workout based on African dance. She both finds and creates the family she longed for as a child and connects with her unknown background. The first book of the trilogy, Africa's Child, was released in 2016. The final book of her memoir series--Drum Beats, Heart Beats--reveals more of Nhambu's life as she searches for her father.
Drum Beats, Heart Beats

Through trauma and triumph, love and betrayal, the "Drum Beats" and "Heart Beats" of her native Africa lead her on an ultimate journey of transcendence that will enthrall and inspire readers around the world.

Spirit in Action
Movement is spirit in action and has been a vital part of sacred rituals in virtually every culture. Combining physical movement with prayer is an increasingly popular spiritual discipline, seen most often in the growing practices of yoga, t'ai chi, and qigong. "Spirit In Action" is a new discipline, a gentler Tae-Bo "TM" for the soul."Spirit In Action" was developed into an expanded spiritual teaching from The Aerobic Prayer "TM" video series, a "hot new fitness trend", says the NAPRA NetWorker, which concentrates on exercise routines. The embodied prayers in the book incorporate dance steps and forms of physical worship that have traditionally been used to summon divine energies in many different cultures, including African, Brazilian, Polynesian, Cuban, Celtic, Mideastern, Far Eastern, and Native American. Illustrated with step-by-step photographs throughout, Dr. Lamberti's moving meditations can be used to promote relaxation and a sense of well-being, give thanks and bestow blessings, enhance a connection to the divine, and increase concentration, patience, compassion, courage, and other kinds of energy.
