Book Synopsis Around the World in 80 Trees by : Jonathan Drori
Download or read book Around the World in 80 Trees written by Jonathan Drori and published by Laurence King Publishing. This book was released on 2018-05-28 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An arboreal odyssey” – NATURE “One of the most quietly beautiful books of the year” – DAILY MAIL Discover the secretive world of trees in Jonathan Drori’s number one bestseller... Bestselling author and environmentalist Jonathan Drori follows in the footsteps of Phileas Fogg as he tells the stories of 80 magnificent trees from all over the globe. In Around the World in 80 Trees, Jonathan Drori uses plant science to illuminate how trees play a role in every part of human life, from the romantic to the regrettable. From the trees of Britain (this is a top search term), to India's sacred banyan tree, they offer us sanctuary and inspiration – not to mention the raw materials for everything from aspirin to maple syrup. Stops on the trip include the lime trees of Berlin's Unter den Linden boulevard, which intoxicate amorous Germans and hungry bees alike, the swankiest streets in nineteenth-century London, which were paved with Australian eucalyptus wood, and the redwood forests of California, where the secret to the trees' soaring heights can be found in the properties of the tiniest drops of water. Each of these strange and true tales – populated by self-mummifying monks, tree-climbing goats and ever-so-slightly radioactive nuts – is illustrated by Lucille Clerc, taking the reader on a journey that is as informative as it is beautiful. The book combines history, science and a wealth of quirky detail - there should be surprises for everyone. Perfect for fans of Peter Wohlleben’s The Hidden Life of Trees, this new book will certainly whet the appetite of any tree lover to take an around-the-world trip, or simply visit your local botanic garden. The perfect travel guide for nature enthusiasts.

Book Synopsis Rivers of Existence by : Leanne Dawson
Download or read book Rivers of Existence written by Leanne Dawson and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2013-04 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My journey took me to England, USA, and Europe, through the guidance of Archangel Michael, activating Earth Acupuncture healing on major ley lines and power sites. The trip was life-changing, in that it provided me with answers to life's mysteries which I had been searching for and unknowingly found the love of a partner. This book delves into the following topics. - The heart healing aspect of the modality. - Includes the Earth Acupuncture process. - How to find and what to look for in a black stream. - How to work with angelic beings and elementals. - Examples of the space-clearing process. - The dowsing response and how to work with it. Earth Acupuncture is a technique that sends healing to an area of environmental distress, restoring balance to the land and provides emotional and spiritual relief to the people who inhabit the area. The process of Earth Acupuncture is built on the concept that there are many energy lines that crisscross the planet. These lines or grids have been mapped out and named by many dowsers who have journeyed across the globe. Many of the sacred sites across the world such as Chartres in France and Stonehenge in England reside over these energy grids. However, these energy grids can get out of balance when affected by catastrophic events such a war, famine, and human atrocities. When these events happen, the energy that was once sacred, clear, and flowing energetically can turn into a black stream, absorbing and carrying with it energy that can have a detrimental effect on the mental, emotional, and physical health of all.
