by Nicholas E. Brink (Author)
So much can be learned about how to live a healthy and sustainable life by listening to the spirits of our ancestors and of the Earth. The spirits were a central part of providing direction in how our hunter-gatherer ancestors lived. If we open ourselves to these spirits and listen-through our dreams, and through trance, whether hypnotic or ecstatic-they can again become part of our lives.
In Nicholas Brink's travels to Sweden, Denmark, Ireland, Finland, Peru, California, New York, and New Mexico, he discovered special places where the spirits became alive. While listening through ecstatic trance, these spirits come alive at the deepest level, and have taught him ways we can again live in a sustainable manner.
Chronicling Brink's use of ecstatic trance Listening to the Spirits explores the destruction human beings have imposed upon the Earth and how we can hope to survive this coming apocalypse. In these ecstatic experiences Brink often finds himself as a young boy learning the shamanic ways of his tribe, seeing what is beyond his eyes and hearing what is beyond his ears.
