The Language Before Words

The Language Before Words is a love story between a human soul and the natural world that has been reaching toward it since before language existed.Most of us had it once. A circle of branches. A patch of clover. A particular quality of light on a childhood afternoon when the world opened and we fell through into something vast and wordless and holy. And then, gradually, we lost access to it - talked out of it by the noise, the doctrine, the rooms that weren't built for us.Kabbalist, certified shamanic practitioner, and Nature photographer Sarah Woodard has spent her life finding her way back. In this book, she invites you to find yours - not through dogma or doctrine, but through the oldest teacher there is: the living world itself. Included are color renditions of her own photographs.Nature has never stopped speaking. You just have to get quiet enough to hear it.Praise for The Language Before Words "Finally someone put words to what I feel!" Carlene M. "Love the vulnerability and authenticity. It made me go back and think about my youth and far away we've gotten as adults." Sandy C.
