Awake in the Wild Mindfulness in Nature As a Path of Self-discovery

"Awake in the Wild includes short-palatable and poignant-two to three page chapters on topics related to nature and our relationship to nature. Each chapter includes a concrete nature mediation relating to the topic, with essays such as Attuning to the Natural World, Reflecting the Rhythms of Nature, Walking with Compassion, Releasing the Inner Noise, Freeing the Animal Within, Coming into the Peace of Wild Things, Weathering the Storms of Life, and more. Peppered with anecdotes from the author's myriad nature retreats, Buddhist wisdom and teachings, other nature writings, and nature herself, AWAKE invites the reader to: Participate in, not just observe nature; Develop a loving connection with the earth as a form of environmental activism; Lessen our sense of modern, urban alienation through connection with nature; Embody the peaceful presence of nature; and Connect with ancient spiritual wisdom through nature meditations."Kornfield, Jack is the author of 'Awake in the Wild Mindfulness in Nature As a Path of Self-discovery' with ISBN 9781930722552 and ISBN 1930722559.
