Eco-Spiritual Book Club
Rooted: Life at the Crossroads of Science, Nature, and Spirit
Join in our first Eco-Spiritual Book Club of the year on Sunday, June 21st as we read and discuss Rooted: Life at the Crossroads of Science, Nature, and Spirit by Lyanda Lynn Haupt.
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? Haupt’s book is a brilliant invitation to live with the earth in both simple and profound ways—from 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 wilderness—and wildness—that sustains humans and all of life.
Please purchase the book on your own, in any format you prefer, or check it out from your local library. We will meet at the Garden Chapel Sanctuary (1040 Dautel Ln) at 5:00pm on June 21st. We will not only share our reflections but also engage in some of the earth-based spiritual practices found in the book together. Light snacks will be provided; feel free to bring something to share too.

Monthly Offerings
We gather each 2nd Saturday morning for a nature-themed community song circle. The monthly facilitator(s) will teach simple, a cappella songs for all to learn and join in. All voices welcome, no previous experience necessary!
These song circles will gather in our newly created "Council Circle" clearing within the nature sanctuary. Please meet in the lower parking lot of Garden Chapel Sanctuary along Dautel Ln. and then follow the short path to the Council Circle.
Through gentle guided movement (yoga & qi gong), awakening and calming breath practices, and simple meditative practice, we will explore questions like: What does your body have to teach you about being calm and grounded? What does your breath have to teach you about being alive? What does nature have to teach us about being and living AS resource? Please bring your own yoga mat and a blanket if you have them.
