'I love the important and empowering message of psychotherapist Julie Brams' new book The Nature-Embedded Mind. Her profound work offers us the first step in addressing the escalating, converging eco-disasters now happening on our planet.' Linda Buzzell, LMFT, Co-editor, Healing with Nature in Mind (Sierra Club Books) Researcher/Writer, College Educator at Pacifica Graduate Institute Featured in Huffington Post on Ecopsychology and Ecotherapy

The Nature Embedded Mind explores some of the most vital questions our culture is facing, regarding the broken relationship between humans and nature. Our persistent and shared delusion that we are different from the rest of nature is at the heart of why we behave in ways that destroy our own habitat. Focusing on our personal and collective beliefs, The Nature Embedded Mind shows how we can begin healing the most important relationship we have, our relationship with Earth. These pages combine the latest scientific research, personal stories, and writing prompts that will allow you to expand your own thinking. Challenging Western psychology, this book aims to prioritize its offered repair as the new foundation for mental health and social wellness.
