These poems are openings into a wide range of human experience. From explorations of our resistance to life through to exuberant and passionate engagement; from piercing laments for the loss of species through to fierce calls for action in the face of climate breakdown; from tumblings through the realms of love and lust to elegies for lost friends and contemplation of death: the poems in Cairn navigate the timeless themes of being human against the constant backdrop of the sixth mass extinction. Timely, eloquent and forged deep in the heart, these poems are destined to be shared far and wide.

One of the most important steps towards self-healing is to take responsibility for your own nourishment. This book provides a set of tools to do this. It takes guidance from the insights of traditional Chinese medicine and makes them accessible to the modern day person. There are over 100 recipes using familiar foods that reflect the cosmopolitan nature of Western cuisine. Each recipe's energetic actions are described to enable the reader to choose recipes suited to their own individual needs. There are no good foods or bad foods: all the reader has to do is listen to the wisdom of their own body. This book can be read alone or as an accompaniment to "Helping Ourselves" and "The Energetics of Food".

This manual is intended as a resource for students and practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine, such as Acupuncture, Shiatsu and Qi Gong as well as for the general reader. The book details the energetic properties of around 300 common foods, and explains the principles of Chinese medicine and how to apply them for daily use. This manual encourages the reader to know their own body, in order to help themselves and get the best out of the information provided. "Helping Ourselves" is not designed as a quick-fix or dietary revolution, but is intended as a supplement to, rather than a substitute for, skilled professional guidance. This book can be read alone or as an accompaniment to "Recipes for Self-Healing" and "The Energetics of Food".
