description: NATIONAL BESTSELLERDeepen your connection to the natural world with this inspiring meditation a path to the place where science and spirit meet (Robin Wall Kimmerer).In Rooted  cutting-edge science supports a truth that poets artists mystics and earth-based cultures across the world have proclaimed over life on this planet is radically interconnected. Our bodies thoughts minds and spirits are affected by the whole of nature and they affect this whole in return. In this time of crisis how can we best live upon our imperiled beloved earth?Award-winning writer Lyanda Lynn Haupts highly personal new book is a brilliant invitation to live with the earth in both simple and profound waysfrom walking barefoot in the woods and reimagining our relationship with animals and trees to examining the very language we use to describe and think about nature. She invokes rootedness as a way of being in concert with the wildernessand wildnessthat sustains humans and all of life.In the tradition of Rachel Carson Elizabeth Kolbert and Mary Oliver Haupt writes with urgency and grace reminding us that at the crossroads of science nature and spirit we find true hope. Each chapter provides tools for bringing our unique gifts to the fore and transforming our sense of belonging within the magic and wonder of the natural world.
