Veteran 'horse whisperer' and communication expert Grant Golliher has trained thousands of horses, many of which have been traumatised or abused, and can tame a wild horse to calmly accept a saddle and a rider in just hours—without the use of any force. Through his work, Golliher has learnt essential lessons about communication, boundaries, fairness, trust and respect—lessons that apply not just to horses but to humans as well.

We live such busy lives and have completely lost touch with nature. This is a handbook for reconnecting back with nature's energy, wisdom and a natural way of living.

Packed with nourishing rituals, practices and Kirsty's trademark wisdom, Sacred Seasons will show you how to draw on inspiration from nature's events, including the spring equinox, the summer solstice, the autumn equinox and Imbolc.

Adrian West, a.k.a. the internet sensation VirtualAstro, will take you through the seasons, showing you exactly what you can spot in the sky throughout the year, whether you're in your back garden or sitting on an exotic beach somewhere! While you're learning how to spot constellations, meteors and comets, you will be switching off your busy mind, sitting still in nature and paying attention to the small details that make up the big picture of life.
