Earth Magic

This compact set offers a low-key introduction to the topic of communion with nature and related spiritual practices. Starhawk narrates this program, which first sets out general principles and history and then moves to a series of exercises and tips for practice. The program's structure will be particularly welcome to those who listen in their cars, for whom a program with exercises sprinkled throughout must be reserved for listening at a later time. Starhawk is easy to understand. Her conviction regarding her subject matter is strong, but she avoids proselytizing. Her exercises are easy to follow; many are short and easy to integrate into everyday habits and various belief systems. J.E.M. (c) AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine
