75 ESSAYS & POEMS100 ORIGINAL COLOR PHOTOSQUOTATIONSThis full-color journal includes essays and poetry about nature, stunning photography, and a collection of quotations by philosophers, poets, naturalists, and famous writers.LOOK UP! Musings on the Nature of Mindfulness is an antidote to the frenetic pace of this world. It is a clarion call to get up and get out--to look up from our work, our distractions, our routines--and find our way back to the simple pleasure of being in Nature. This is a journal of one woman's reconnection with Nature, told through heartfelt essays and poems by writer Jennifer Payne, and illustrated by close to 100 stunning, full-color photographs of the woods and shoreline of Connecticut. Woven in between, you'll meet kindred spirits like Emily Dickinson, Henry David Thoreau, the Dalai Lama and Jon Kabat-Zinn, each expressing their own thoughts on the vast and wonderful lessons to be learned from the natural world.
