Book excerpt: Called 'Noah's Ark' by an Oxford University scientist, the SAI Sanctuary is an example of how nature exists on a delicate balance. You cannot destroy nature and you cannot rearrange it without serious consequences to your existence! Coming from two rich wisdom cultures, one Native American and one Indian, Pamela and Anil Malhotra made it their mission to salvage what they could in Kodagu, Kerala, where years of coffee-growing had ravaged and denuded the land. Today, in its near-original form, this sanctuary boasts a rich variety of indigenous trees and plants as well as numerous rare and threatened species of animals, some found nowhere else on the planet. In this deeply fascinating and inspiring personal journey, Pamela recounts how she connected and communicated with animals and trees both at a physical and spiritual level, and how understanding and preservation of nature is the only way to save mankind.

Download or read book Sex and the Intelligence of the Heart written by Julie McIntyre and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2012-04-26 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explores how Nature underlies sexuality and intimacy • Examines how to regain intimacy in our relationships in a way that embraces our hidden wild nature and restores the sacred to our lives • Provides sacred sex and intimacy-building practices for partners and exercises to reconnect with the intuitive intelligence of the heart, remove our emotional armor, and cultivate a deeper relationship with the Earth • Shows how by healing our relationship with Nature and our sexuality, we move toward healing the whole planet Nature is having sex all the time--that’s one of the reasons we feel so alive when we are immersed in it. Sexuality is essential to the sensation of Nature in your own body, of connecting to the piece of Earth closest to you--your own flesh and bones. Many a couple has been overcome by passion while walking in the woods or on the beach; many a soul has found solace or epiphany in Nature. Living in accordance with Nature depends on you being your true, whole self--a sexual, sensual, erotic, fully alive human being. Exploring the territory of intimacy, sacred sex, and emotional healing as a journey to wholeness, Julie McIntyre examines the sacred relationship between sexuality and the Earth and reveals how to create deep, lasting intimacy with your lover by recapturing the wild, spontaneous, natural sexuality that is your birthright. Detailing the process of moving from your head to the secret garden of your heart, she provides exercises to heal your psyche of old emotional trauma, reconnect with the intuitive intelligence of the heart, and cultivate a deeper relationship with the Earth in order to trust yourself and become vulnerable and open with your lover and thus truly intimate. She shows how there is a direct relationship between our beliefs and values about sex and intimacy and our beliefs and values about the environment and the Earth. She reveals how, by healing our separation from Nature and our sexuality, we can bring the sacred back into our lives, shape our own ecstatic sexual experiences, and move toward healing the whole planet.
Download or read book Nature S Nature written by Sixto R. Castillo and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2018-08-25 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The temple within is every aspect to all good and committed sin. With a statue for every voice. And the measure to listen carefully and to make the right choice. The sound of the echo is long and everlasting. This would be the best voice to listen to, but all I hear is the other laughing. They all say listen to me, listen to me. But I have to ignore all to make my own decisions to see. In his debut collection, Natures Nature, Sixto Castillo draws readers into his abstract world of rhythmic poetry and prose. This is a unique gathering of words that reflects Castillos thoughts on life and reality, filtered through nothing but his own mind while all other distractions are set aside. Here, there is imagery that appeals to the senses and unexpected ironic twists. Traditional metrical schemes need not apply as Castillo uses a hypnotic, lilting melody that draws readers from one poem to the next. Through his collection, Castillo hopes to inspire people through the written word and share a message of hope, true emotion, and joy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are facing unprecedented environmental challenges, including global climate change, large-scale industrial development, rapidly increasing species extinction, ocean acidification, and deforestation – challenges that require new vocabularies and new ways to express grief and sorrow over the disappearance, degradation, and loss of nature. Seeking to redress the silence around ecologically based anxiety in academic and public domains, and to extend the concepts of sadness, anger, and loss, Mourning Nature creates a lexicon for the recognition and expression of emotions related to environmental degradation. Exploring the ways in which grief is experienced in numerous contexts, this groundbreaking collection draws on classical, philosophical, artistic, and poetic elements to explain environmental melancholia. Understanding that it is not just how we mourn but what we mourn that defines us, the authors introduce new perspectives on conservation, sustainability, and our relationships with nature. An ecological elegy for a time of climatic and environmental upheaval, Mourning Nature challenges readers to turn devastating events into an opportunity for positive change. Contributors include Glenn Albrecht (Murdoch University, retired); Jessica Marion Barr (Trent University); Sebastian Braun (University of North Dakota); Ashlee Cunsolo (Labrador Institute of Memorial University); Amanda Di Battista (York University); Franklin Ginn (University of Edinburgh); Bernie Krause (soundscape ecologist, author, and independent scholar); Lisa Kretz (University of Evansville); Karen Landman (University of Guelph); Patrick Lane (Poet); Andrew Mark (independent scholar); Nancy Menning (Ithaca College); John Charles Ryan (University of New England); Catriona Sandilands (York University); and Helen Whale (independent scholar).

Download or read book Wild at Heart written by Alice Outwater and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2019-04-02 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Alice Outwater’s infectiously readable Wild at Heart captures the essence of ecology: Everything is connected, and every connection leads to ourselves." —Alan Weisman, author, The World Without Us and Countdown "A wonderful book. Information rich to say the least, and the indigenous human connections and portrait of the deep connectivity of nature, are both strong elements." —Jim McClintock, author of A Naturalist Goes Fishing Nature on the brink? Maybe not. With so much bad news in the world, we forget how much environmental progress has been made. In a narrative that reaches from Native American tribal practices to public health and commercial hunting, Wild at Heart shows how western attitudes towards nature have changed dramatically in the last five hundred years. The Chinook gave thanks for King Salmon's gifts. The Puritans saw Nature as a frightening wilderness, full of "uncooked meat." With the industrial revolution, nature was despoiled and simultaneously celebrated as a source of the sublime. With little forethought and great greed, Americans killed the last passenger pigeon, wiped out the old growth forests, and dumped so much oil in the rivers that they burst into flame. But in the span of a few decades, our relationship with nature has evolved to a more sophisticated sense of interdependence that brings us full circle. Across the US, people are taking individual action, planting native species and fighting for projects like dam removal and wolf restoration. Cities are embracing nature, too. Humans can learn from the past, and our choices today will determine whether nature survives. Like the First Nations, all nations must come to deep agreement that nature needs protection. This compelling book reveals both how we got here and our own and nature's astonishing ability to mutually regenerate.
Download or read book Open Your Heart to Nature and Beyond written by Dr. Linda N. Cameron and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2021-09-09 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Open Your Heart to Nature and Beyond maintains there is one problem—separation from the Divine— and one solution—applying some form of forgiveness. It details the holding relationships that actually separate us from the Divine and how to use the Law of Forgiveness to let them go and open our hearts to God’s presence. Like a computer delete key, the activity of forgiveness allows us to let go physically, emotionally, and mentally until we join Universal Being. This Divine encounter is divided into 7 distinct stages with descriptions based on experiences of the author as well as poets and individuals from other major religions. This book also suggests that a religious experience is simply having an experience of the Zero Energy Field as defined in quantum physics. The Zero Energy Field is defined as the activity of subatomic particles such as photons, electrons, and other quantum particles in space at temperatures of absolute zero. Research indicates that humans can affect this field with pray which is the mental activity of calling these energy particles to organize and outpicture as manifestations in nature. We also have the ability to apply the Law of Forgiveness that Jesus introduced and release the electrons, neutrons, and protons forming something in the world and in our minds and thereby causing them to disorganize them and return to the Zero Energy Field. The human activity of forgiving or letting things, thoughts, and emotions go shows that we have the mental ability to apply the Law of Entropy and disorganized manifested things and release them back into subatomic particles in the Zero Energy Field.
