Reviews"I love this book. Walking with Trees is a portal into the world of some of nature's most sublime sentinels. Dip in and be bathed by trees and their wisdom." --Polly Higgins, lawyer and ecocide law expert "I love the way that this exquisitely illustrated book encourages us to take our meditation practice outside and in to the natural world. Glennie skilfully shows us how through contemplation we can form healing, nourishing, and inspiring relationships with trees." --Jilly Shipway, author of Yoga Through the Year "Glennie Kindred has always been such an abundant and finely-honed wordsmith, reaching into the alchemical infusion of nature, seasons, sacred land and ancient craft to beautifully envision their interface with our human lives and understanding." --Carolyn Hillyer, writer, musician, artist "Reading this book makes me want to grab my coat and disappear into the woods and wander the tree lined lanes this very moment. From watching the Spring Equinox sunrise through Alder to embarking on an ancient Yew pilgrimage, Glennie has taken me to a new level of inspiration to deepen my relationship with trees. Packed with fascinating information spanning from natural history to folklore, medicines to meditation, this rich resource is a must for every tree lover and earth warrior s bookshelf. If there was ever just one book to read about trees then it is this one. Glennie's passion and experience oozes out on every page, and there is enough wisdom and inspiration here to keep me going for a lifetime. I will be returning to this much needed resource again and again as an essential guide to drawing on the deep wisdom and healing power of trees." --Nicola Smalley, co-founder of The Way of the Buzzard "Once again, Glennie has delivered! Having read virtually all of her output over the years, the word which springs to mind to link them all is quality. The thoroughness of her approach to her chosen subject is very apparent. This time around her focus dwells upon our relationship with thirteen of the principal British native trees, from alder to yew. Very artfully, she surrounds her subject, by covering aspects of habitat, folklore and medicinal qualities, plus a practical guide to their growth. Whilst doing so she discusses such related topics as the doctrine of signatures, the ogham alphabet and where these trees fit into the wheel of the year. This is truly a love song to the trees , and Glennie contributes not only the prose, but also the illustrations and poems, all in her inimitable and beautiful style. The design of the book is aesthetically pleasing, and I am sure readers will treasure it. I cannot recommend it highly enough." --Ark Redwood, author of The Art of Mindful Gardening

SynopsisIn Walking with Trees , Glennie Kindred takes us on an intimate and profoundly connecting walk with thirteen of our native trees. She leads us into their worlds and opens our hearts to their wonders, their qualities and their potential to heal. This is a book about relationships and inter-relationships: our relationship with the trees, their relationships with each other and with the natural world around them, and the flow of our communal relationship, past and present, which affects us all as the web of life on Earth. Glennie's passion for trees is infectious, and inspires us to look more closely, listen more intently and walk with trees more often. She shares her stories and encounters with trees and weaves together many ways to deepen our engagement with them, from growing them, harvesting and using them for medicine, food, and craftwork. She also encourages us to find our way into a more subtle and intuitive relationship with the trees, as part of our journey to heal our fractured relationship with the Earth. As with all of Glennie's books, the seasonal cycles and the Earth festivals are interwoven and provide further ways to deepen our journey with trees and is illustrated with the author's exquisite pencil drawings. This is a book about possibilities, for those who care for our environment. This is a book that reminds you of what you might have missed or forgotten, and reminds you of your power. This is a book of our time, where we recognise our deep interconnectivity with the trees, with all of life and with the Earth herself. It inspires us to open our arms and hearts wide, and joyfully embrace the changes., In Walking with Trees , Glennie Kindred takes us on an intimate and profoundly connecting walk with thirteen of our native trees.
