~James S. Korcuska, Ph.D. NCC, Resource Review Editor for Counseling Today~ "How to describe
this extraordinary book! Susan Scott's stunning photographs, her
lovingly attentive verbal descriptions of woods like those I and
my dogs walk in each morning has enabled me to notice the amazing
stories embedded in the beautiful and miraculous pattern of growth
of this cedar or that fir, as it has responded to the particular
challenges of its immediate setting and life history. She helps
us see how our lives--her own, those of her patients and friends,
mine--are informed by the same natural patterns, exhibit the same
fierce resilience, the same quiet coming to terms."
"Healing With Nature is an inspirational
book that gives depth insight into the heart of healing. Beautifully
written, the book shows how the simple act of walking in nature
can be a profound healing process available to everyone. Susan Scott
shares her own story of healing a painful back injury, along with
other people's stories of healing somatic and psychological illnesses.
She shows us a way to heal our wounds as we learn to be with the
healing gifts of nature."
"Susan Scott's Healing With Nature is a lyrical, literary journey through nature and through Jungian concepts of healing. A delightful amalgam of science, natural science, and beautiful description, Healing With Nature is about the difficult craft of being human. All those who love nature or are concerned with personal growth will find this irresistible. This is psychology in its finest form--storytelling." ~Susan Zwinger Ph.D. Still Wild Always Wild~ |
