What could a revolutionary 12th-century German mystic and a 20th-century Austrian psychotherapist have to do with one another? More than you might imagine. Come to charming Astoria, Oregon to find out!

My book, My Sap Is Rising, invites you on a pilgrimage of discovery and healing. Walk with me each morning through chapters and exercises from My Sap is Rising as you explore holistic mental health healing through the wisdom of two extraordinary teachers separated by eight centuries - yet united in their approach to wholeness: Hildegard of Bingen and Alfred Adler.

Part spiritual memoir, part self-help, part educational, this book and class weaves together ancient remedies and modern psychology, offering insights you can apply to your own journey toward healing. You'll discover how medieval wisdom speaks powerfully to contemporary life, and how the greening power of viriditas—the life force Hildegard celebrated—can rise within you again.
