Ecotherapy in Practice A Buddhist Model

"The Ten Directions approach, as described in Caroline Brazier's very helpful book Ecotherapy in Practice: A Buddhist Model, provides a useful framework for working in many different styles of outdoor healing, social or educational endeavors. This guide is a marvelous contribution to our field."

Linda Buzzell, Co-editor, "Ecotherapy: Healing with Nature in Mind" (Sierra Club Books)

"In her book, Ecotherapy in Practice: A Buddhist Model, Brazier offers a new conceptual model for ecotherapy practice. This is intelligently woven together using ideas from Buddhism and the field of psychotherapy. Interspersed throughout the book is clear guidance for anyone wishing to work therapeutically outdoors. Brazier shows how Buddhism offers a natural home for ecotherapy with its teachings on mindfulness, presence, interconnectedness, reciprocity and the nature of change. This is a much needed practice as we head into climate change and global social unrest."
