Kosmos
Connecting with Nature
​
Heartwood Path Book 1

Kosmos sets you up for a revolutionary but fun course of study that simultaneously solves two of the most prickly issues: unhappiness and the destruction of the natural environment. Who knew getting “glad” and getting “green” could be accomplished together at the same time and in such an effective and rewarding way?

Readers will be made ready for an enjoyable course of study—the Heartwood Path—which shows a novel and proven way to connect with nature. It turns out that this approach changes lives for the better and simultaneously improves the health and beauty of the natural world. But only if you are prepared, and that is what happens along the Kosmos section of the Heartwood Path.
Kosmos is available as a printed book or e-book on Amazon.com, Apple Books, and BarnesandNoble.com.

Logos
Connecting with Universal Principles of Integrity

Heartwood Path Book 2

Logos prevents you from perpetually swimming against the current of life and shows you how to use eco-psychology and communing with nature to uncover universal principles and fundamental truths.

By living so much of our lives indoors, away from natural processes, we have largely forgotten that our abiding, abundant, and authentic happiness is tied to a lovely and sustainable environment. As a result, we are too often fighting the tide.

​
Logos corrects that. This second book in the Heartwood Path series describes the structure of the integrity that needs to be rekindled if one expects to flourish.
Logos is available as a printed book or e-book on Amazon.com, Apple Books, and BarnesandNoble.com.

Egos
Connecting with the Individual Self

Heartwood Path Book 3

Egos helps you become the change you seek for the world. It helps you maintain your own inherent and unique gifts as you work on causes, especially environmental sustainability and protecting the beauty of nature.

Ecos
Connecting with the Ecological Self

Heartwood Path Book 4

Ecos helps you expand your sense of self so that you no longer feel separate from nature. By widening your relationships, one psychologically gathers up forgotten extra-human parts of oneself.  

This reawakening makes you feel responsible for all natural beings. No longer isolated in a human case, one naturally seeks to protect “others” as a form of self preservation. When one cares for the Greater self, happiness goes up along with the sustainability of the natural environment.

In Ecos—the fourth book in the Heartwood Path series—you will discover how your relationships allow you to attain a more complete maturity. Until an awareness of the More-Than-Individual Self is achieved, all plans for world betterment will be sabotaged by the limited perspectives of those involved.
Ecos is available as a printed book or e-book on Amazon.com, Apple Books, and BarnesandNoble.com.

Ethos
Connecting with Valued Traits

Heartwood Path Book 5

Ethos helps you develop the personal traits that are revered in your community. Such traits include: honesty, responsibility, fairness, and respect. Without incorporating these traits into your character, without being kind or contributing to your community, one will not be able to have a happy life and a regenerated natural environment. The achievement of such characteristics is the purpose for reading Ethos.

After the four interesting and helpful preparatory books in Heartwood Path, Part One, Ethos is the first of three books devoted to guiding you on your spiritual journey as an individual. You will learn about the useful natural laws (different from universal laws printed in earlier Heartwood Path books) that will affect your safe and effective progress through the stages of your life cycle. 
Ethos is available as a printed book or e-book on Amazon.com, Apple Books, and BarnesandNoble.com.
