In this book of healing meditations by non-traditional shaman and healer, Judith Hirst, you will discover that there are depths to Nature that you have not imagined. The images in the words spark a memory in the cells that calls each of us to return to our place in Nature. We are part of the whole. As you meditate through each of the beautifully phrased 111 contemplations, you find that you go on a journey of discovery about what Nature is saying. You will observe, with the writer, the messages that suddenly seem so clear. Your first thought is, "Why did I not see that before?" And then you may realize that you have absented yourself from Nature, even though you have walked in many parks and hiked many trails. You have held yourself back from being in full contact with the animals, the trees, and the elements. The stories within each of the meditations remind us that the oldest language is not of words; it is of symbols and pictures. If we take the suggestions in many of the verses to the point of action, then we will find that we regain a bit of our soul each time we allow ourselves to be caught up in the energy. With these meditations, you can be your own guide and walk into different places. Have a wonderful journey ""This is a meditation book like no other - for "Earth Wisdom Meditations" gently connects us to the vast and intricate web of energies that surround us. Judy's thoughts and words inspire us to open our mind and senses to these loving and supportive energies-which in turn enables us to 'hear', to 'notice', and to 'recognize' their soft murmurs."

Her book is a gift of personal discovery; it provides us with insight into our own unique abilities, and we learn."" - Dianne Steen, Speech Instructor at Mount Royal University, Calgary, Alberta ""This is a truly beautiful book: truth is beautiful.

Buy it for your children, give it to your friends, and certainly read it yourself, over and over."" - Jackie Branagan, Healer, Shaman, and Animal Communicator www.dragonflyessence.com

In Bringing Heaven Down To Earth, Tzvi Freeman explored an original means to deliver the wisdom of a great sage of our times, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson, known universally as simply "the Rebbe." Using pithy yet highly readable, brief meditations, that book unveiled for us a deeper meaning to life and provided practical guidance to weather its waves and storms. It is a book that changed tens of thousands of lives. Now, in Wisdom to Heal the Earth, Freeman continues with that winning format, this time along with complementary brief essays. But now he takes us yet further, peering toward the Rebbe's vision of a world towards which all humanity is headed, and demonstrating how the details of our everyday lives are vital, crucial, and today especially urgent in reaching that grand and ultimate destiny. In Jewish parlance we call this Tikun Olam"€"the notion that we all enter this world with a mission to accomplish: to repair and perfect our assigned share of the world, so that it can become the world its Creator meant it to be.
