Grounded

“There was a time in Western civilization when women were the keepers of a sacred trust: humanity’s deep connection to the natural world. They held aloft our sense of divine relationship to the earth, the waters, and the sky. With the destruction of pagan culture, the sacred power of such women all but disappeared. What they represented is reappearing now–not a moment too soon–and Erin McMorrow is a proud and worthy daughter to their ancient legacy. Ageless voices seem to be reaching across the years to speak to her, delivering an eternal passion for reconnecting all of us to the divine, to each other, and to the earth on which we live.” –Marianne Williamson, four-time #1 New York Times bestselling author

“How do we face the fierceness of this collective moment with courage and tenacity? How do we restore our own health as a reflection of restoring the Earth’s? Grounded, in its revised edition, offers directness and caring hopefulness, valuable insights, necessary information, and clear pathways for us to pursue this matrix of healing. Erin’s voice is both artful and wise, a must-read for anyone seeking both restoration and guidance as we face, together, how to renew our relationship to our Earth, ourselves, and one another.” –Seleyn DeYarus, founder, RepresentativeRising.org, Co-Founder, Ideaphoria B.V.

“To me, people working on ecosystem science and soil carbon are planetary rock stars in the making! Their work may be critical to people’s long-term symbiotic relationship with the earth system–and each other–in more ways than one may initially realize. Humbly, the interconnected and healing world of soil and the carbon cycle that Erin McMorrow gives new insights to couldn’t come at a more critical time.” –David Addison, founder, Planetary Practitioners

“I have a deep love and surrender to keep learning from soil, and Erin McMorrow’s Grounded resonated profoundly with me in my journey within this relationship. It not only gave me permission to embrace my own feminine connection to the Earth, but Erin’s ability to intertwine these concepts felt like a deep healing. This book is more than just insightful; it’s a powerful remembering and a blueprint for patterning forward our relationship with the Earth in a more actionable, nurturing, and regenerative way.” –Karen Rodriguez, founding member and COO, Kiss the Ground

“McMorrow takes us along a personal journey in which her most powerful teachers–and healers–are the often-invisible aspects of nature, down to the microbes in the soil.” –Judith D. Schwartz, author of Cows Save the Planet, The Reindeer Chronicles, and Water in Plain Sight

“A divine masterpiece, one of the true voices of our generation, purpose-aligned with the environment.” –Pashon Murray, founder and CEO, Detroit Dirt
