What does it mean to be just wild enough?This is a collection of poetry that explores wildness through the lens of the seasons, the elements, the four directions, and ultimately, through the mystery at the heart of it all. Author Heidi Barr invites a wander through one's own wildness, from finding songs in your pockets to befriending mossy logs to tuning your ears to ballads written by branches. Take a walk through words in this timeless collection and emerge more beautiful in your own creatureliness and more wonder-filled, than before.

Spending time in nature provides countless benefits. But our lives leave little room for connecting with the natural world, and a history of colonization complicates our relationship to the land. Guided by wellness coach Heidi Barr, this journey of self-inquiry calls you to embrace wildness as an integral part of being fully alive.

Slouching Toward Radiance is a collection of nature poetry, meditations, gentle advice, and nudges toward reflection. It’s the sort of poetry that anyone can read, even people who don’t like poetry—a book that can be picked up and paged through to whatever sections fit for the day or season of life. Heidi Barr's words are worthy companions on the way toward living a life steeped in integrity and compassion for one’s fellow beings—from the human down the street to a deer in the forest. It’s a walk through a metaphorical day, from dawn to dusk, noticing the holy ordinary even through storms, by way of solitude and community.  It’s an invitation to start where you are, to find beauty and healing in the everyday stuff of life, and to make the choices that lead to fully living in the ways that work best.Part invitation, part musing, part blessing, Slouching Toward Radiance is a call to fully show up to life, and to take ownership of what you find when you do. You may just find it’s possible to find renewal in the ordinary dance of living.
