Simply put, The Nature Embedded Mind: How the Way We Think Can Heal Our Planet and Ourselves by author Julie Brams, MA, LMFT (out now) is a definitive must-read for anyone just starting, or deep into, their development journey.

Julie Brams’ book is an incredible dive into the connection between nature and oneself. She removes the pressure that modern day life brings and introduces ideas that are completely new, yet absolutely familiar to one’s inner self. Even after finishing the book, I found it lingering in my mind for days on end and I can only hope that applies to you, the reader, also.

Beautiful, thought provoking, a read that touches the human soul and its connection with the soul of the Earth, if you take notes along the way of all the exercises and willingly continue to incorporate them into your daily practices, well, believe me your life will change for the better.

I mean, her tone is reminiscent of an old friend guiding you down a familiar path and thus is a truly inspiring read from start to finish. I mean, don’t get me wrong, the book does not tell you how to think, moreover it reminds you of what connections already exist within you and around you.

Insightful. Passionate. Genuinely healing. Julie Brams truly shows us a way back to health through re-discovering our original connection to the Earth and ourselves; where we can experience a deep healing connection with the natural world that can only be known by living it, by being it.
