Taking this journey through the Soulscapes not only awakens the soul, but opens one's eyes to each individual's responsibility for the fate of our planet. I am deeply touched by Mary's work and wisdom.

Elizabeth Banning, Writer and Editor


Mary’s insight and stunning evocative metaphors give us access to whole, intact dimensions of ourselves longing to be breathed alive. She uses the power of landscape to pierce our denial and awaken our passion for life, and responsibility for its safekeeping.

What is an Eco-Soul? It’s an otter, floating, playful. It’s vast blue skies with redwood borders in daylight. It’s twinkling starlight. It’s expansive. That's my Eco-Soul. Thank you, Mary.

On environment, Thompson is a first-rate writer. What sets this book apart from other books is the fact that we are capable of change, of developing an eco-consciousness that can save and protect the environment. The soul of the land is our soul and she shows us in words.

Anne Robinson, Poet and Writer


Mary Thompson's poetry workshops on the spiritual connections between inner and outer landscapes were very valuable to my creative process. Her work is exciting and fresh, a celebration of the soul and an enthusiastic invitation to chart the worlds we inhabit.

Mary Reynolds Thompson does pioneering work, connecting the inner terrain of psyche and soul with the great landscape archetypes of the earth.  Her lucid explorations of the multi-valenced metaphor linking environment and mind help her clients find their own paths toward insight and healing.  Her work is also part of what Thomas Berry calls the Great Work of our times—recharging the human relationship to the living earth and committing our hearts to heal the massive wounds we have inflicted on our planet and ourselves.

Mary's work adds a whole new dimension to the phrase 'nature lover'.  I've always enjoyed the 'great outdoors', but Mary's turns of phrase and use of metaphor have opened me to a whole new way of seeing the planet and my place in it.  A few years ago I began to see my interconnectedness to all things, but Mary has helped me 'connect the dots' of that truth at an even deeper level.  She guides her readers to find an inspired and appropriate response to a wounded self, a wounded world.

Mary’s Eco-Soul poetry class was an enlightening experience for me. Using the Soulscapes was very effective in seeing the issues in a unique way. I was pleasantly surprised at the poetry that I wrote, despite the fact that I'm not really a "writer". I would highly recommend this class to anyone who is looking for a unique (and fun) method to explore one's inner wilderness in a deep and creative way. Thank you!

This is a powerful and beautifully poetic evocation of the connection between our wild and sacred souls and the healing of our world.  It is inspiring and urgently needed.
