BW Tree roots from a tree in Balboa park
This tree grows its roots down into the cenote, a cave holding a freshwater lake, as long as 10-15 meters. And the lucky tourist can take a swim in the cooling water. Ez a fa a cenote vizéhez növeszti le a gyökereit. A cenote egy olyan barlang, amelyben kisebb-nagyobb tó található. Ilyenekből több ezer van Mexikó déli részén, és sokban fürödni is lehet.
**NATIONAL BESTSELLER Deepen your connection to the natural world with this inspiring meditation, "a path to the place where science and spirit meet" (Robin Wall Kimmerer).** In Rooted*,* cutting-edge science supports a truth that poets, artists, mystics, and earth-based cultures across the world have proclaimed over millennia: life on this planet is radically interconnected. Our bodies, thoughts, minds, and spirits are affected by the whole of nature, and they affect this whole in return. In this time of crisis, how can we best live upon our imperiled, beloved earth? Award-winning writer Lyanda Lynn Haupt’s highly personal new book is a brilliant invitation to live with the earth in both simple and profound ways—from walking barefoot in the woods and reimagining our relationship with animals and trees, to examining the very language we use to describe and think about nature. She invokes rootedness as a way of being in concert with the wilderness—and wildness—that sustains humans and all of life. In the tradition of Rachel Carson, Elizabeth Kolbert, and Mary Oliver, Haupt writes with urgency and grace, reminding us that at the crossroads of science, nature, and spirit we find true hope. Each chapter provides tools for bringing our unique gifts to the fore and transforming our sense of belonging within the magic and wonder of the natural world.

Various tasks -- from planting to installing a mail post -- require digging through dirt. Unfortunately, not all soil is soft and easy to dig. Digging through hard dirt and roots can be a difficult process when using normal gardening tools.
A powerful movement is happening in farming today--farmers are reconnecting with their roots to fight climate change. For one woman, that's meant learning her tribe's history to help bring back the buffalo. For another, it's meant preserving forest purchased by her great-great-uncle, among the first wave of African Americans to buy land. Others are rejecting monoculture to grow corn, beans, and squash the way farmers in Mexico have done for centuries. Still others are rotating crops for the native cuisines of those who fled the "American wars" in Southeast Asia. In Healing Grounds, Liz Carlisle tells the stories of Indigenous, Black, Latinx, and Asian American farmers who are reviving their ancestors' methods of growing food--techniques long suppressed by the industrial food system. These farmers are restoring native prairies, nurturing beneficial fungi, and enriching soil health. While feeding their communities and revitalizing cultural ties to land, they are steadily stitching ecosystems back together and repairing the natural carbon cycle. This, Carlisle shows, is the true regenerative agriculture - not merely a set of technical tricks for storing CO2 in the ground, but a holistic approach that values diversity in both plants and people. Cultivating this kind of regenerative farming will require reckoning with our nation's agricultural history--a history marked by discrimination and displacement. And it will ultimately require dismantling power structures that have blocked many farmers of color from owning land or building wealth. The task is great, but so is its promise. By coming together to restore these farmlands, we can not only heal our planet, we can heal our communities and ourselves.

Research is beginning to show that fibromyalgia (FMS) is not a rheumatologic syndrome, but rather a neurological one. As a result, it is finally recognized that the root causes of FMS, while still a mystery, are based in the nervous system rather than joint or other tissues. It also means that the brain and the … Continue reading "The brain and nervous system in fibromyalgia"

And, yes, we know that not everyone is a cat person - take dog people, for instance - but for whatever reason, it seems that musicians in particular have a recurring tendency to prefer their companions to be of the feline persuasion. We've collected 20 examples to show you that we're not making this up, and as a bonus, we've dug up a number of cat-centric tracks and compiled them for your listening enjoyment. We don't want to suggest that it's the purr-fect playlist - when it comes to music, we know some of you are pretty persnic-kitty - but hopefully you'll find something in the mix to enjoy.
