Skywoman Falling – a Lesson for These Times

Our Sufi Book Club recently read and discussed this amazing book and it truly opened up a new way of seeing the world for me and many of us. In the most recent Emergence Magazine post, they sent the following that felt so important for these days of uncertainty and fear. Please follow the link below to read this beautiful essay.

In this excerpt from the new introduction to her acclaimed book Braiding Sweetgrass, Robin Wall Kimmerer draws upon the creation story Skywoman Falling and the wisdom of plants to guide us through our present moment of deep uncertainty. Her words of hope, transformation, and courage feel especially poignant at this moment as we look to find ways to heal and address the monumental challenges that lie before us.
