Main description:

Reflecting and exploring the connection between the environments we live in and our moods, motivations and dreams, this insightful volume takes the growing field of Terrapsychology into new and exciting directions.

This book draws together a group of contemporary voices in terrapsychology to explore lived topics, such as ecotransference encountered with sacred place, alternative mapping and expressions of solidarities with sacred sites, place dreaming, locianalysis, trans-species encounters, deep genealogy, terraplomacy and hermeticism. The chapters focus on praxis, demonstrating how each author's relationship with the more-than-human world has been reenchanted, revealing, remembering and co-creating relationships and community for life to flourish.

Co-edited by Garret Barnwell and Craig Chalquist this collection will interest scholars, students and practitioners across a range of fields, including Analytical Psychology, Environment Psychology, Ecopsychology, Ecotherapy, Environmental Studies and Cultural Anthropology.
