5.0 out of 5 stars
Terrific way to clear the mind,

This review is from: Earth Medicine (Paperback)
This book has 364 poems/short pieces of prose so you can read one per day. I just pick it up and flip to a page when I need to get grounded again. There are lots of life stories, one that sticks out for me is one that talks about remembering to be balanced. Following each poem/short story there's a sentence or two on the learning to take away and reflect on. Its really great - definitely a nice thing to do upon starting the day. Each entry has a connection to the earth, the Great Mystery, and often human behaviors (e.g. kindness, humility, love, qiet mind, etc) that we all can relate to and reflect upon.

This review is from: Earth Medicine (Paperback)
This is a remarkable book for understanding a particular place in life. Whether you follow the pages corresponding to the movements of the moon, this book will give powerful insight into your life. On the day I was moving out of my hometown for the first time I opened to a page radomly it spoke about cherishing old friends and places and having the courage to move on. Jamie Sams is an incredible author and a wonderful person to read.
