Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

Rocks and mountains have withstood aeons of life on our planet - gradually eroding, dissolving, recycling, shifting, solidifying, and weathering. We might spend a little less time on earth, but humans are also weathering: evolving and changing as we're transformed by the shifting climates of our lives and experiences. So, what might these ancient natural forms have to teach us about resilience and change?

In a stunning exploration of our own connection to these enduring forms, outdoor psychotherapist and geologist Ruth Allen takes us on a journey through deep time and ancient landscapes, showing how geology - which has formed the bedrock of her own adult life and approach to therapy - can offer us a new way of thinking about our own grief, change and boundaries.

In a world shaken by physical, political, and medical disasters, Weathering argues for a deeper understanding of the ground beneath our feet to better serve ourselves and the world we live in.

The insight from the author and her beautiful descriptive writing.

A beautifully written book which envelops all the things I love: nature, deep thought and healing....oh and to top it off, a dog. Who doesn't love a dog? Ruth really captures the beautiful landscape around her and tells the story of therapy and healing so well. I loved all of it.

Thought provoking

What a fabulous journey of discovery. I was prompted throughout to reflect on who I am in relation to the earth and this book. It's helped me unearth some real gems.
