Have you ever wondered if the world is alive, sentient, listening?

Do trees perceive time?
To whom do ants pray?
What wisdom do coyotes sing?
Why do bees dance?
Would you run if Jaguar stared you in the eyes?
Have you ever been a lizard?
Do you speak with dogs? Cats? Spiders? Mosquitoes?

Once, When I Was Tree is a spiderweb mandala spun from the edges inward. Each true story is a thread, pulled from different times and places in the author's life—woven through common themes of interspecies communication, magic, adventures, soul unraveling, and deep listening.

So take your time. Or dive in. But know this: nothing in this book is fiction.
And nothing is here by accident—not even you.

🌿 For readers of Braiding Sweetgrass, Desert Solitaire, How to Change Your Mind, The Hidden Life of Trees, and The Spell of the Sensuous—those drawn to spiritual memoirs, plant medicine, nature mysticism, animism, and eco-spirituality.
