How does the
global ecological crisis affect your personal
health? Are you being selfish when you spend an
hour focusing on your own wellness instead of
global wellbeing? How do your personal choices
affect the whole? How do the big choices we are
collectively making as the human species affect
your personal long-term prospects for
survival?
I asked myself
these questions as I sat at my desk in my little
publishing office in Northern California, working
on books and articles that I believe make a
difference to our collective future. Out of these
endeavors, a massive and ambitious project was
born: an anthology that chronicles the birth of a
planetary culture embracing both pristine personal
health and vibrant global welling. I invited
world-famous authorities to comment, people like
the Dalai Lama, Deepak Chopra, Jean Shinoda Bolen,
Huston Smith, Helen Caldicott, Larry Dossey, Debbie
Ford, Neale Donald Walsch, Gay Hendricks, Joan
Borysenko, Ram Dass, Mary Catherine Bateson and
Barry Sears. I discovered unknown yet brilliant and
inspiring new voices working on the frontiers of
consciousness and personal growth. I put it all
together in a remarkable new anthology, Healing
Our Planet, Healing Our Selves. In the pages of
this book you will discover some of the most
astonishing, simple, profound and challenging
visions of where humankind as a planetary species
is heading, and what it means for every breath you
yourself take in the next year and beyond. These
brilliant contributors bring together quantum
physics, leading edge medicine, social activism,
mysticism, case histories, and the outer limits of
science and systems thinking to paint a
multi-faceted vision of the future, and how it will
affect you personally.
I urge you to
purchase a copy of this book from one of the web
sites below. I urge you to read it, find the ideas
that inspire you most, to incorporate them in a
powerful life mission for yourself, and to share
that with your friends and colleagues. I urge you
to forward a link to this site to everyone you
know, and ask them to purchase the book too. I urge
you to write reviews on the online bookselling
sites, to include this site in your signature line
of all your e-mails, to order the book in your
local bookstore and ask them to stock five or more
copies. I urge you to join me in a planetary
revolution that far transcends politics, economics
and social progress as we know it today. I urge you
to join me in the healing of our precious Earth,
even as you heal the deepest wounds in your own
psyche and body.
With
thanks and blessing,
