Reflections on Self-Healing from the Living World

A nature therapy session for the soul--encounter the benevolence of the living world through 12 essays on the Earth-healing powers of self-compassion and empathy.

When healing is needed at the deepest level, nature will always call us back home--not only to the oak woods or water-filled coves, but to the homes within ourselves.

In a series of 12 lyrical nature essays, herbalist, writer, and Earth intuitive Asia Suler illuminates the healing power of the living Earth--and gives us permission to nurture self-compassion and empathy as forces for personal and ecological healing.

In a time of unprecedented ecological devastation, it’s easy to feel hopeless and disconnected. It’s easier still to mask our inherent goodness--to imagine that our unique and precious gifts simply aren’t enough, or forget the power of our inborn empathy. For those of us who are highly sensitive, innately attuned to the workings and whispers of the natural world, it can be hard to embody the belief that we’re enough as we are--and that can heal the Earth.

Here, Suler reveals the opposite: our goodness, our empathy, our intuitive connections, and our capacity for self-compassion are more than personal traits or antidotes to despair: they are, in fact, our most potent vehicles for planetary transformation. And as we learn to more deeply nurture and accept ourselves, we unlock living, healing connections to Earth.

Combining poetic nature writing with exercises and reflection prompts at the end of each essay, Mirrors in the Earth coaxes us to come as we are: to discover and tend the inherent brilliance and medicine that lives in each of us. From the manatee-calm springs of wild Florida to the flower-dotted coves of the world’s most biodiverse mountains, Mirrors in the Earth is an invitation and encounter with the benevolence of the living world--and a nature therapy session for the soul.

This is one of my top books I've ever read! I feel like anyone could walk away from hearing this book as a better and calmer person. I have probably listened to this book at least 5 times thru and I get something new from it each time! I have always been a sensitive person and felt a strong connection to nature. this book has encouraged me to live a life in alignment and connection to our earth more.

One of the best books

Life changing, heart touching, soul speaking book. Calming and inspiring all at once. A gift and a must listen!

A love song to the Earth, the self and the soul of

This book is part love song, part poem, part earth science and part psychology all woven in small stories of intimacy and awakening with the Earth. Weaving Ethobotany, Eco Psychology, Animism and Activisim, this old soul in a young body speaks eloquently and emotionally about the value and vulnerability of being alive at this moment in Earth's story. Asia Suler is both scholarly and simple in the sharing of her deep relationship with her earthly belonging, giving voice to the ache and alchemy so many humans feel in this moment and time. She is deeply understanding and empowering, helping humans claim their kinship with nature and inspiring us all to act with love, kindness and hopefulness in these hard times. I bought five copies and wish I could buy five more to share with my nearest and dearest Eco feminism friends who have been singing this song for a while, but this is missing music. Grateful for her words, actions and capacity to bring the world these notes that are much needed in order to move towards better harmony both within and all around us. Shine on Asia, you a made for these times!
