2. The Sacred Path of Eco-consciousness
Healing our Culture of Discontent
By Alice Iida
Tantalized by how an experience in the
Amazonian rainforest relieved and positively
transformed years of struggle with anxiety and
depression, Alice became interested in
discovering what brought her such healing in the
jungle. She embarked on a journey to Peru and
Ecuador and discovered that in a world where
material possessions and accomplishments are
the prime expression of a person's identity and
source of happiness, a growing emptiness is
taking over the world. This void is driving us to
consumption, addiction, stress, and disease.
Take a journey from the Big Bang into the deep forests of the Peruvian
Amazon, and ask yourself how we got here, where we are, and what's possible
for our future. Embrace the ecological crisis that is unfolding, and commit to
doing the inner work required to nourish our planet, and our souls. The Sacred
Path of Eco-consciousness is a book that sews together the world's ancient
wisdom traditions, to bring healing to our discontented modern culture.
