Sacred Natural Sites, Experiences In The U.S.

With Lori Erickson, author of Every Step is Home, we uncover the sacred essence within natural wonders in the U.S. -- each linked to an element such as air, water, and stone. From the Marching Bears Iowa mounds to the hallowed dirt of El Santuaro in New Mexico, to the spiritual stones at the Pipestone National Monument in Minnesota, Lori leads us on these and other journeys of discovery. Our talk includes the mesmerizing Northern Lights, the astronomical marvels of New Mexico"s Chaco Canyon, and the destructive and regenerative power of fire at Hawaii"s Volcanoes National Park. Lori ends with the Sandhill Crane migration in Nebraska. You"ll see that the sacred is all around us, waiting to be discovered, as you join us in this captivating conversation. _____ Lori Erickson"s newest book is Every Step is Home: A Spiritual Journey from Appalachia to Alaska.
