Experiencing the Healing Power of Nature

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Wilderness is not just a place; it's also a state of being. Nature is not only found outdoors; it exists deep inside all of us and reveals who we really are. The awe-inspiring power of nature is explored by beloved psychiatrist and author Gerald May in his final book.

The Wisdom of Wilderness is both a memoir and a spiritual guide. May discusses the lessons he learned when he stepped away from his busy life and let nature speak to him; lessons we can all learn if we take the time to get in touch with the "greater power" manifest in all living things.

Gerald G. May, M.D. (1940-2005), practiced medicine and psychiatry for twenty-five years before becoming a Senior Fellow in Contemplative Theology and Psychology at the Shalem Institute for Spiritual Formation in Bethesda, Maryland. He was the author of many books and articles blending spirituality and psychology, including Addiction and Grace, Care of Mind/Care of Spirit, Will and Spirit, and The Dark Night of the Soul.

"Rarely are we graced by such honest and profound reporting of what it is to be a spirit in a body on earth. You can only enliven yourself by drinking here."

- Mark Nepo, author of The Exquisite Risk and The Book of Awakening.
