Recommendations for books about nature, culture, and spirituality

Mindfulness, Personal Healing and Spirituality Awakening

The essence of spirituality isn't about mysticism or new-age thinking. Spirituality is a practice of awareness. Here are some classics I recommend for anyone to read and re-read on their spiritual journey.

Society and Collective Consciousness

The human mind likes to separate knowledge into distinct categories but human experience transcends boundaries. Here are some insightful books that intersect the personal and the collective, the scientific and the mystic, and the push-pull dynamic between rationality and emotionality.

Environmental Philosophy and Ecopsychology

Our inner and outer worlds mirror each other. How we interpret our inner nature as human beings is how we interpret the outer nature of our environments. Dive deep into this relationship with these books on environmental philosophy and psychology.

Heartfelt Reflections on Life and Nature

We exist in the world as individuals through experience but we exist in the world as a species through language. Between the beauty of nature and the vulnerable lessons of life is the ultimate gift of language: the ability to share our hearts with others. Soften your heart with these inspirational and poetic expressions of humanity.

Wisdom From the Inner Child

The beginner's heart of a child is perhaps the best teacher we can find in the school of life. Get reminded again and again about the true value of being alive with these classic children's stories.
