Dark Nights of the Green Soul Santoshan (Stephen Wollaston)

While bringing together a collection of articles published mostly in GreenSpirit magazine, 'Dark Nights of the Green Soul' highlights insights about facing difficult times, alongside reflections on our interactive relationship with Nature and our shared responsibilities. The book's four main parts present various perspectives about working with darkness and ways in which we can creatively move forward. The first section considers different types of darkness as well as its benefits. The second and largest section includes further wisdom, along with personal stories about times of difficulty people encountered, and how each of the storytellers found new meaning and growth by either connecting with an animal friend or in Earth-centred spiritual awakenings and teachings. The seven articles in the third and final sections reflect upon the state of the planet and offer practical views for the times in which we live and 'the great work' we need to embrace.
