  • “Connection is Health. And what our society does its best to disguise from us is how ordinary, how commonly attainable, health is. We lose our health - and create profitable diseases and dependences - by failing to see the direct connections between living and eating, eating and working, working and loving.”

    Wendell Berry

  • There is no restoration without rest.

    DeeAnn Dean

  • Our first step towards strengthening our health will be to simply create the space to Breathe, Listen, Ask, Look, Touch© and rest.

    DeeAnn Dean

  • “What does our health need? To see things whole, to see things clearly, to see things with sanctity, to see things with love.”

    Wendell Berry

  • “Driven by fashion, death, and bad science, the desire for more overrides completely the idea of a home or home place or home economy or home community. The desire for quantity replaces desire for wholeness or holiness or health. The sense of right proportion scale cannot survive the loss of the sense of relationship, of the parts to one another into the whole. The result, inevitably, is ugliness, violence and waste.”

    Wendell Berry

  • “The soil is the great connector of lives, the source and destination of all. It is the healer and restorer and resurrector, by which disease passes into health, age into youth, death into life. Without proper care for it we can have no community, because without proper care for it we can have no life."

    Wendell Berry
