Earth Medicine and Healing StonesEarth Medicine and Healing Stones starts from a very simple premise: the health and well-being of body, mind, and spirit that we are looking for is dependent upon our relationship with the earth on which we live. Modern life can easily lead to anxiety and stress, even mental and physical exhaustion. To regain our balance and refocus our energies, author Carollanne Crichton outlines, simple, meaningful and gentle practices, including meditation, yoga and chakra work. She particularly emphasizes healing stone massage, and, offers, as well, a practical philosophy that can form the basis of a more fully engaged life. |
