LOOK UP Musings on the Nature of Mindfulness is an antidote to the frenetic pace of this world. It is a clarion call to get up and get out--to look up from our work, our distractions, our routines--and find our way back to the simple pleasure of being in Nature. This is a journal of one woman's reconnection with Nature, told through heartfelt essays and poems by writer Jennifer Payne, and illustrated by close to 100 stunning, full-color photographs of the woods and shoreline of Connecticut. Woven in between, you'll meet kindred spirits like Emily Dickinson, Henry David Thoreau, the Dalai Lama and Jon Kabat-Zinn, each expressing their own thoughts on the vast and wonderful lessons to be learned from the natural world. "When I finally learned to look up," writes Payne, "I found my way back to that spirit who loved to play outside, who was curious about her surroundings, whose imagination knew no boundaries. When I finally learned to look up, I found much more-peace, solace, joy, connection." For more about the book and to purchase a signed copy, visit www.lookupthebook.com.
