Produktbeschreibung
Based on true experiences on women's land in Australia at various locations in the mid 1980s, this story weaves together many of the grassroots feminist tenets and motivation for seeking a lifestyle without men and outside the establishment. Through the eyes and travels of the author, a young radical feminist impulsed by her Saturn Return to leave everything near and dear to her in the city, this story reveals personal insights into why women at the time sought solace and community in rugged women-only wilderness. Survival off-grid evokes individual and collective resourcefulness and innovation. Many soul revelations take place in a land closer to the stars as questions on the quantum nature of existence evolve. Mother Earth inspires healing, song and creativity. Cut off from the status quo, new ways are invented and new skills awakened. Shedding the past, shedding limitation, these women discover far more than they have ever known.
Autorenporträt
GEORGI STONE grew up in Perth Western Australia where she graduated in psychology in 1977. She travelled and worked overseas for a few years in the trades and in women's refuge and rape crisis services, then returned to Australia in 1980, continuing employment throughout Australia in the women's refuges and rape crisis centre, as well as a government-funded women's carpentry project to maintain these services.In the 1990s, disillusioned with clinical and drug-based approaches to healing, she completed post-graduate studies in Drama Therapy and Expressive Arts Therapy, which utilised psychotherapeutic techniques in drama, dance, art, sound, writing, and ritual. She incorporated this in her counselling and therapy, then went on to design and facilitate workshops and therapy programs. On the country property where she had listened to the granite as a child, she built an open plan house of granite and recycled timber where the old asbestos cottage had burnt down. This place came to host many a community gathering, ritual and workshop. Her work has been motivated by grassroots activist radical feminism and an interest in the esoteric and quantum sciences. Studies in Herbal Medicine, Energy Healing, Naturopathy and Remedial Massage have complimented her work in alternative therapy. She has a daughter Hannah born by home birth in 1994.
