Reviews

“Gifted storyteller Gail Rex follows the wisdom threads of her own deep longing into the heart of nature’s mystery--making it clear that we and the Earth are one. The nature within and around you will come alive as you follow her steps to restore sacred relationship, healing yourself as you bring harmony to the Earth.”
