I'm a little behind on social media posts, so consider this your advance warning that there may be a flood of them next week! 😅
But before that, I had to take a moment to rave about Ayrmid's book and just how incredible it is.
Before reading her work, I often felt a slight disconnect when reading spiritual books written outside of Australia. That's not to say those books don't hold value—they absolutely do—but there was always something that felt just a little out of step with my own experience of place and practice.
Reading Ayrmid's work felt different. It genuinely felt like she was speaking directly to my soul.
She has beautifully woven together the importance of cultural practice, respect for Country, and a thoughtful understanding of First Nations knowledge in a way that speaks to those of us who call Australia home while recognising that many of us are not from here. Her writing encourages a deeper relationship with the land we live on and the responsibility that comes with that connection.
If you're interested in earth-based spirituality, seasonal living, nature connection, or creating a practice that feels rooted in the Australian landscape, I cannot recommend her work highly enough.
This is one of those books that I know I'll be returning to again and again.
