Description
PRAISE
“The true activist and the soul-poet are united in their longing to seed this world with the healing waters of the enlivened heart. Jack Adam Webster expresses this union through these evocative invitations into the beauty, mercy, and grace of inner and outer nature. Reading these poems is like having a window open with the fresh mountain air nurturing us at deepest levels—personally, culturally, and collectively—at a time when such nourishment is essential.”
—Matt Licata, Ph.D., author of A Healing Space and The Path is Everywhere
“These poems beautifully combine lyric power with sound psychological and spiritual sense. I recommend Jack’s book both for meaningful reading and for deep meditation.”
—David Richo, Ph.D., author of Being True to Life: Poetic Paths to Personal Growth
“These brilliant, wise, passionate poems are a wakeup call to humanity to rediscover its divine nature, and act from it, to preserve the planet.”
—Andrew Harvey, author of Teachings of Rumi and The Hope
“Jack’s wonderful book, Climate Cure, now has a twin companion in Rebearth which we might also call, Climate Care. This delicious book of poems isn’t so much about caring for the climate as it is about caring for the sacred within us that has become so estranged from our beloved planet. Rather than navel-gazing, Jack writes that “The Earth is falling. There’s no time for meditation, that doesn’t produce a solution, at the end of every day.” Tending the soul and taking action—that is the essence of Rebearth. We shouldn’t try to navigate these times without this gorgeous offering.”
—Carolyn Baker, PhD, author of Collapsing Consciously and Love in the Age of Ecological Apocalypse
“A passionately articulate call to a deeper life, a life of uncompromising ecological attunement not only outwardly but also inwardly, a life of radical openness and raw care, through which we find intimacy with both our brokenness and our wholeness, no matter what the season.”
—Robert Augustus Masters, Ph.D, author of Transformation Through Intimacy, Spiritual Bypassing, and To Be a Man
“Weber’s collection of poetry is a gift. It pays homage to earlier writers, particularly the poet Rilke. More importantly, and more to the point, it pays homage to Earth. Read it and grieve. Let your heart break open with Weber’s words. And then, heal. May the Earth join you in the recovery.”
—Guy R. McPherson, Ph.D., author of Extinction Dialogs
