Thanks for the list! I have a recommendation for you - it's called Mirror's in the Earth by Asia Suler. It's one of the most beautiful and life changing books I have read this year. I feel seen by her writing and by the nature that surrounds me. It's insightful, powerful and has taught me how to ground into the world better as a sensitive human. I also loved the book, if women rose rooted by Sharon blackie, which is about women who come from more of a English or Celtic lineage and tending to the land.

Braiding Sweetgrass was impactful for me, I loved it, and it's been awhile since I read wild but it made me want to explore the Appalachian mountains.

Thanks for the list, I look forward to reading it!

Such a wonderful list, thanks for sharing! I'm currently reading Wanderlust: A History of Walking by Rebecca Solnit. I'm nearly halfway through and the book has discussed everything from when our ancestors became bipedal to when humans started walking recreationally to the function of walking in Jane Austen's novels. It's an absolutely wonderful, very 'down to earth', and is making me want to go for more walks--highly recommend!
