Lawn Wars

The Struggle for a New Lawn Ethic

By: Lois B. Robbins

Like it or not, we're embedded in the natural world. We might as well learn to live more harmoniusly with it. Part memoir, part how-to, part problem-solving, Lawn Wars gives a historical context and resources for a new movement that is showing up across the nation. Difficulties encountered by aspiring natural landscapers are explored with wit and factual information. The rich rewards of making such a shift are described in lyrical prose as the author tells her own story of heartache and delight.

Waking Up!

In the Age of Creativity

By: Lois B. Robbins

We live in a time of enormous and radical change. As old structures fall away -- structures built on the separateness of all human activity -- new ideas emerge: about ourselves, our interrelatedness to one another, to the cosmos, to all matter. New values emerge from these awarenesses which are building blocks to leading new lives and transforming society. The author shows that the key to understanding this basic paradigm shift is for each of us to tap into our creative potential. Many mental and emotional blocks stand in our way, and in a most informative manner, she offers tips on helping the creatively blocked person explore his or her deepest resources. Most significantly, she shows the essential link between creative acts and spiritual acts. Both are healing acts, acts of power; both are experienced in the body and by the body, whether in song, dance, pottery, painting, or meditation. The way of the artist and the mystic are one. By rediscovering ourselves, our oldest traditions, and our newest cosmological discoveries, we can once again unite art, science and religion, thereby fusing the periods of the pre- and post-Enlightenment in today's emerging new order."
