Produktbeschreibung

Steeped in beautiful art and verse that invites reflection, Morning Leaves is the perfect gift book or self-purchase.

Morning Leaves is an invitation to dream of a life where you are moving away from whatever has stopped you toward the next step. It might be a death, trauma, loss of a relationship, some wild dark night of the soul is upon you and you enter this book, these poems, and Kelly Leahy Radding's magnificent nature art.

You enter the possibility: Walk it. Talk it. Write it. Create it. Keep moving forward. Find your joy. Find your blessing. Find who you are going to be in your wild and precious life - one butterfly flight, one mourning dove wing, one frog leap at a time. This is a book that invites a journey into wholeness through creativity and conversation and writing and movement.

Healing isn't static. It's energetic! I am here to take your hand. Morning Leaves is a love letter to the growing soul who wants to move on to the next place and find joy.

Autorenporträt

Laing F. Rikkers was raised in New York City and earned her BA from Harvard College, followed by an MA in psychology from Columbia University. She spent most of her career as a medical device investor and co-founded ProSomnus Sleep Technologies. Currently, she works as an executive coach and public speaker, supporting leaders through periods of transition and growth. Laing lives in Southern California with her husband and their spirited dog and is the proud mother of two adult children.

Kelly Leahy Radding honors the natural world she loves through her art. She finds all aspects of nature interesting subjects for her paintings. Animals, plants, butterflies, rocks, the sometimes overlooked minute details of Nature, are to her an integral and necessary part of the whole. Kelly grew up in rural Connecticut on the edge of a state forest and has come full circle living on a farm in Columbia, Connecticut at the end of a dirt road surrounded by woods. She shares the farm with her husband, her brother, three gray cats, seven elderly goats and one perfect border collie.
