Solstice asks us to consider what we want to let go to the dark and move toward in the light.
To that end, I am sharing my holiday gifts to myself paid for by my hand knits to further my education and answer the call heard in my heart. All but one here are some of the required readings for the Nature Therapy Certificate program I intend to enter May 2015, all dependent on a miracle of cash flow that is as yet uncertain. I have been introduced in the past to many of these books but have read none thoroughly.
Books of wisdom words are a classroom in themselves that augment experiential learning every time I head out the door and into the fern-laden woods under the clouds and watch great blue herons stretch out above me.
2015 is bound to be a great adventure. I resolve to leave behind my fears:

My 2014 Great Education
The work of Dr. Michael Cohen via Project NatureConnect has been a tremendous personal gift to me in continuing to heal from posttraumatic stress (without knowing I was doing that). Reading his writings, enrolling in the Orientation course and practicing nature connecting exercises through a "webstrings" model has helped me experience my place in the natural world in a much more satisfying and deep level than before. I do not personally know another human being in my culture who has slept outside for 40 consecutive years, allowing dreamtime in nature to inform his understanding. Here are some of the books I have and am willing to loan to anyone who asks.
My Own First Publishing Adventure 2014!
What I learned:
1) If you are going to self-publish something that earns you $0.11 per copy, you might as well invest in software to give it away for free as an eBook and then create a workshop around it. Pondering development of a 2015 workshop for school age children and children of all ages using the activities in "Naturography".
2) Paginating in Word 2007 or any MS Word for publication is a bear! I cannot understand how this system was created. This YouTube tutorial helps:
