Yarning with Plants

Every plant has a story to tell. Every story is medicine for the soul.

Are plants at the heart of living a more connected life? Could talking with plants unearth much needed wisdom and restore a forgotten sense of belonging?

Yarning with Plants traces the everyday yet wondrous adventures of plant-human friendships, revealing the capacity everyone has to 'inner-stand' the language of trees and flowers. It contains both inspiration and down to earth guidance on developing and deepening relationships with plant allies, followed by the stories of six plant whisperers as they practice deep listening to nature.

Communicating with six Australian native plants over several months, the friendships each woman develops with their respective plant spirit - banksia, flax lily, native violet, hibbertia, geebung and Sydney red gum offer insight, guidance, healing, transformation and re-connection within the web of creation. Each unique and captivating journey reveals a common thread - how the magical wisdom of plant kin can support humanity to remember, rewild and reweave itself home.

For anyone that has ever felt a subtle whisper from a tree, bush or potted herb, this book not only shares how to listen, but why it matters.
