The Greenest Branch - An Eco Spirituality Day Retreat

This “greenness” is an expression of heaven, the creative power of life, which can be witnessed in the gardens, forests, and farmland all around us. And like those lands, 12th Century mystic Hildegard of Bingen saw viriditas—the greening power of the divine, as something to be cultivated in both our bodies and our souls
