The Outside Within (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781732998858)

Following true accounts of everyday people who have been transformed by the healing power of nature, the Outside Within illustrates how the more-than-human world is laden with the possibility of delivering solace in hard times as well as offering sacred meaning-making for the human spirit. The Outside Within demonstrates how nature shows up in big ways, imparting many unexpected lessons and ageless truths. When the Blue Ridge Mountains teach perseverance, a starry night creates inner comfort, and a forest trail helps release anger, it seems as though this ancient medicine is made to order for each one of us.

Complementing each personal narrative are practical exercises and reflections to help you unearth nature's therapeutic ingredient for your very own health and well-being.

With nature as a mirror, teacher, counselor, and spirit guide, this book invites you on a literary adventure filled with wild promises echoing from our ancestors who speak to us of deep connection and shared closeness with Mother Earth.
