She writes of gardening as a spiritual practice, one that has the power to ground us in the seasons and cycles of Nature. Gardening, she says, plants us firmly in the circle of birth, life, and death, \"smack dab in the middle of life's gore and glory.\" While gardening focuses on the world of touch and sight and scent, it also opens doors to deeper realities. It teaches us resilience; it shows us how to let go; it comforts our aching hearts; it leads us to repentance-and it offers us a conduit to the Divine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cem\u003eSpirit, I give thanks\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003ethat I am held in a great web of Being, \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003ewhere the energy of earth and memory, \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003etree and thought, flower and emotion, \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003eare all knit together into You. \u003c\/em\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 148\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.34 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 01, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45662912512102,"sku":"9781625247841","price":21.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0599\/7255\/0758\/files\/Nk9mV054ZXBIT3hhc3dENkZ4N05wUT09.webp?v=1779807057","url":"https:\/\/infinitylightwa.com\/products\/sacred-soil-a-gardeners-book-of-reflection-paperback","provider":"Infinity Light","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
