Little Dipper: Roots of Healing - Tides of Change

I would like to pose a series of questions to those of you who might read this book.
Imagine what it might be like to go - alone - to a different country, stay in a rustic
one-room cabin in the woods near the sea, and become disengaged from the phone,
e-mail, the Internet, and even the TV - and to do this for an extended period of time. What might you do? What might happen to you? This is the story of such an experience.


I went north to Canada in an open-hearted spirit of seeking. I carried with me a meditation practice, a spiritual mind-set, the knowledge of sixty-some years of living - and little else. I desired to live a basically simple and simply basic life for several weeks during three separate seasons.



For the first time in my life, I learned how it feels and what it means to stop. Little Dipper is a memoir of that experience and of some of the surprises that occurred when I let go - into the present moment.
