Medicine for Individuals, Communities, Environments, Earth
Sandra Ingerman's ground-breaking book deserves careful reading, study, and practice. Through her analysis of spiritual texts and recountings of miraculous events, she provides the reader with a fresh look and understanding of the existence and practice of miracles. Written for a general audience that accepts the spiritual nature of existence, her book presents clear and precise methods to work on our own physical, emotional and mental toxins as well as those in found in water, and by extension in all of the natural world. What is extraordinary about her book is the clarity of her vision and the simplicity of her methods. And more to the point, these have proven to be successful. While religious historians may balk a bit at her overview of miracles, Sandra Ingerman decribes a blue print for individuals and groups to follow to purify the inner and outer worlds- a heartening prospect indeed!
I highly recommend this book, and encourage all readers to try the practices she suggests.

Harmony Within, Harmony Without
Medicine for the Earth offers hope for all of us in the power of our intent: to cleanse environmental toxins, to heal our world under attack, and to open our hearts. Ingerman focuses on solutions, weaving research and personal experience, tools for shifting consciousness, and a philosophy of healing as she returns always to what we can do. Many writers talk about consciousness of the earth and our relationship with all beings; few provide such a clear map and so many experiential vehicles to us for visioning a different future and making it happen.Ingerman writes from the worldview of a deep ecologist (though she does not identify herself this way) and a lifetime of shamanic healing and counseling. She provides guided visualizations, meditations, and many ideas for shamanic journeying for readers to expand their relationship with and consciousness of all aspects of the natural and human worlds. Like Cameron's The Artist's Way, this is a book rich with practices to be explored individually as well as in group and community. Unlike most self-help books, however, Medicine for the Earth speaks to our deep desire to transform the world as well as ourselves.
As a meditator I have been moved profoundly by Ingerman's philosophy that we need to shift the internal assumptions and perceptions that get in the way of making change. As a shamanic practicioner, I've had a wonderful time exploring Ingerman's journeying ideas and using my skills in a reciprocal way to heal the earth. And as an environmental activist I have found it exciting to focus my spiritual energy on the problems of pollution and environmental degradation. In sum, this groundbreaking book is inspiring to read and deeply rewarding to work with.
