Book Description
In our busy, pressured world, the natural world can be a powerful counter-balance, offers wisdom for the challenges, pain and dislocations of life as well as for beauty, wonder and healing. In Soulful Nature, Brain Draper and Howard Green encourage you to get outside and make deeper connections with creation and its creator. They charts walking journeys through rural landscapes and town streets over the course of a year, showing how the natural cycle of the changing seasons can awaken us to the rhythms of our own lives. Each chapter explores a different landscape, zooming in on the small details of the natural world as well as panning out to the wide-screen beauty of time and place. Simple and practical spiritual exercises are provided throughout.
Nature and the Human Soul
Author: Bill Plotkin
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781876451936
Category : Developmental psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 517
Book Description
Today there is a growing awareness that our planet has entered a time of crisis. The damage to our ecosystems, and the pollution we create, are consequences of our self-centred and irresponsible cultures. It is now undeniable that significant change is required. According to wilderness guide and former psychology professor Bill Plotkin, the changes we need will only flow once we progress from egocentric, competitive consumer societies to ecocentric, soul-based ones that are sustainable, cooperative and compassionate. Bill Plotkin profiles eight maturation stages in the human life cycle from child to elder and depicts the qualities and challenges of each. He offers a practical integration of personal and spiritual understandings (from nature and the journey of the human soul) that will allow us to transform our culture. This landmark book - the result of 25 years' work - encourages us to connect personally with the natural world and reassess our place in it. In this way we can create a more responsible and fulfilling way to live. Given the perilous state of our planet, the optimism and guidance contained in NATURE AND THE HUMAN SOUL are an inspiring breath of fresh air!

Soulcraft
Author: Bill Plotkin
Publisher: New World Library
ISBN: 1577313577
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 402
Book Description
Since 1980, depth psychologist Bill Plotkin has been guiding women and men into the wilderness — the redrock canyons and snow-crested mountains of the American West — but also into the wilds of the soul. He calls this work soulcraft. There’s a great longing in all people to uncover the secrets and mysteries of our individual lives, to find the unique gift we were born to bring to our communities, and to experience our full membership in the more-than-human world. This journey to soul is a descent into layers of the self much deeper than personality, a journey meant for each one of us, not just for the heroes and heroines of mythology. A modern handbook for the journey, Soulcraft is not an imitation of indigenous ways, but a contemporary nature-based approach born from wilderness experience, the traditions of Western culture, and the cross-cultural heritage of all humanity. Filled with stories, poems, and guidelines, Soulcraft introduces over 40 practices that facilitate the descent to soul, including dreamwork, wilderness vision fasts, talking across the species boundaries, council, self-designed ceremony, nature-based shadow work, and the arts of romance, being lost, and storytelling.

Languages : en
Pages : 175
Book Description
The 4th Body is not some spooky subject. It’s a philosophical take emphasizing the fourth body that almost everyone neglects and under-utilizes. It’s like you have a million-dollar bank account in some unknown place. This book has answers to many essential life questions that people may have. This book will help tune you to experience the divine vibration that is both fulfilling and healing. it can potentially trigger the transcendental space within the reader, creating meditativeness that heals the mind and opens up the SPACE of enlightenment. Each sentence, when understood as how the author intended it, has the potential to blow away one's limiting-self. There are four dimensions of our presence, and we can sense them at any time (Physical/Energy/thinking/Awareness). Recognizing these bodies increases self-awareness and breaks the limitation of us functioning as just the body, emotion and mind, which are individualized images of the Self. Our true power is kept in our 4th body. I humbly and gracefully say that this book, in my opinion, is optimistic and providential. It is experiential and offers more to the right souls who read the ideas correctly and with the right mindset. The content of this book came out of a flow during moments of deep connection, as if it were meant for a particular group of people. Often the author was surprised by the clarity that flowed into these moments and, at times, sat in shock because the insights were directly opposite to his beliefs and ways of doing things. He is fully convinced that the material belongs to the Universe and was intuited to him for his evolution and that of others. Often, he was inspired by his materials as if they were not his. The author experienced many awakening moments while channelling the wisdom shared in this book. A state of vibration known as the “Divine vibration” is something our soul searches for naturally. It’s fulfilling and is placed at the highest rank as a highly positive experience by our core self. Divine Vibration is everywhere. All we need to do to experience it is to tune in to that vibration. We have a powerful tuning machine called the mind. This mind can tune in to any vibration, from revenge to love, grief to bliss, poverty to prosperity, and demonic to divine. We must be skilled enough to steer it in the right direction. This book will help tune you to experience the divine vibration that is both fulfilling and healing. I could feel the transmission of divine energy through the words and ideas presented here. If you are reading this book and feeling the auspiciousness, then it’s meant for you. Please be in the right frame of mind to receive it. How & Why This book was born from the author’s direct experiences and deep contemplations that led to deep insights during special moments in his life. It also has a compilation of materials shared in a monthly “Mind Purification” Study Circle that the author has conducted since 2010. The idea flow originated from moments of profound clarity that surfaced with high conviction and authenticity. The author was long involved in philosophy and self-knowledge, which in a way, ordained him to guide others on matters of the mind & self. Many seek guidance from him on life issues and mind matters, and he has helped provide greater clarity, wisdom and the proper counsel that elevated them. The author believes that an element called Life Intelligence is unfolding itself to its parts (the readers) through its terminal (author) to know itself, as it is timely. What is it about? This book can potentially trigger the transcendental space within the reader, creating meditativeness that heals the mind and opens up the SPACE of enlightenment. (Enlightenment here means a state of clarity or the dispelling of illusion.) This book is not about TRUTH. Words are not only inadequate to talk about TRUTH, but it is simply impossible.

Dark Nights of the Soul
Author: Thomas Moore
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 9781592401338
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 356
Book Description
Every human life is made up of the light and the dark, the happy and the sad, the vital and the deadening. How you think about this rhythm of moods makes all the difference. Our lives are filled with emotional tunnels: the loss of a loved one or end of a relationship, aging and illness, career disappointments or just an ongoing sense of dissatisfaction with life. Society tends to view these “dark nights” in clinical terms as obstacles to be overcome as quickly as possible. But Moore shows how honoring these periods of fragility as periods of incubation and positive opportunities to delve the soul’s deepest needs can provide healing and a new understanding of life’s meaning. Dark Nights of the Soul presents these metaphoric dark nights not as the enemy, but as times of transition, occasions to restore yourself, and transforming rites of passage, revealing an uplifting and inspiring new outlook on such topics as: • The healing power of melancholy • The sexual dark night and the mysteries of matrimony • Finding solace during illness and in aging • Anxiety, anger, and temporary Insanities • Linking creativity, spirituality, and emotional struggles • Finding meaning and beauty in the darkness
