Publisher's Synopsis
What actually happens to the earth when one of its heart chakras is ruthlessly blocked by a building that has been erected without sensitivity (Cologne Cathedral, for example), when a wall with a 'no-man's-land' cuts an integral landscape in two (the Berlin Wall, which still stands despite having been physically dismantled), when massive constructions of steel and concrete slice through the sensitive energy lines of the earth (road networks), when battles fought in past wars continue to 'rage' as a memory in the subtle tissue of a landscape? All this leads to blockages and imbalances in the subtle organs and energy systems of the earth which culminate in a life-endangering malfunction. Healing the Heart of the Earth illustrates this kind of problem with numerous examples based on the experience gained by the author in earth-healing projects throughout Europe. Our growing sensitivity to the ever-increasing amount of damage to natural and urban landscapes would be expanded in constant lament if we did not take a third, practical step: one that requires the human being as the root of all these difficulties to undergo an all-encompassing inner transformation. This process of transformation in every human being needs to have started before turning to earth healing makes sense. For the spiritual and energetic purification and revitalization of the subtle systems of a place or a natural or urban landscape, it is possible to use the healing vibrations of sound, color, dance and guided imagery, amongst other techniques, as well as the art of lithopuncture. In the final part of the book, the author addresses the question of how each and every one of us can contribute towards earth healing in our own personal space and surroundings. Those who wish to turn lovingly inwards and also outwards to the living world around us will find an abundance of inspiration here. The earth is our concern, the earth that gives life to us all.
