THIS BOOK IS NO LONGER IN PRINT

May 2007 release helps readers understand how their well-being is directly linked to nature.


THIS BOOK IS ABOUT LIVING AN AUTHENTIC LIFE USING ECOLOGIC TENETS AS GUIDANCE.

Aligning with today’s popular quest for self-improvement and self-fulfillment, Gianetta Ellis gives us a unique outlook on our human link with nature. Ellis takes the reader on a personal journey, illustrated through an intuitive case study of the life of a 19th century woman, to describe a three-step process for awakening our own authenticity. Truly inspirational, the book explores time, self and nature in a manner that leaves you reeling with possibilities. Ensconced in this experience are Rachel’s Ballads, freestyle and lyrical writings that will capture your heart and imagination.Stewards of Spirit, the first book in an eco-inspirational trilogy, blends spirituality, ecology and psychology in a uniquely creative way as the reader learns to look at our planet as a model to fulfill individual potential. Ellis cleverly intertwines spirituality and self-development into the world of ecology, and gives us a whole new concept for self-awakening. The reader becomes aware that human wakefulness is not a constant state of being or ever finished; it is a never-ending journey. Stewards of Spirit achieved within the first 60 days of publication a position of number 16 on Amazon’s list of “hot new releases” under the “inspirational” category. It is a must for those seeking a change in their approach to life, or those simply looking to enjoy a thoroughly exceptional reading experience. Watch for the next in this series, The Mystic Among the Willows, to be available in 2009.         
     

 


Excerpt

“Wind blows Cherry blossoms to my feet
Like gifts from God – as nature is surely replete
With all that fulfills and makes us truly complete.”

Ecology helps us to see ourselves holistically. It provides a basis upon which we can evaluate and adjust the interrelationships between all of the components of self that are interacting within the physical environment of the human body. This “Community of Self” includes our ego, emotions, intuition, imagination and spirit as well as the flow of energy between them. In ecologic terms, you might say that most of these inhabitants of self are “indigenous” to the human form. Spirit, however, is indigenous to the Cosmos, and intuition is the connecting strand between the local and broader environments of self and Cosmos, respectively. As humans, we have been entrusted with ensuring optimal conditions for our spirit to accomplish what it intended. Our purpose, then, is to strive to be the highest expression of our authentic, whole selves in relationship to others and our environment, and to model this for the young ones in our lives. Know that in expressing your truth, you model expression for your children. Conversely, if you suppress your authenticity, you model suppression for all those within your realm of influence. We are stewards of that which we model, whether we realize it or not. Remember that we are all of the same Eternal Spirit and that by liberating your own truth, you liberate the same Spirit that runs through all creation. And, by enabling others to support and strengthen their truths, you support and strengthen the Spirit that bonds us. Think and act in terms of unity. In so doing, you will progress toward becoming a Steward of Spirit.

Holy burning wood smoke! That is like an almost unheard of feat for a "new" writer. Who was the publisher. I never escaped being "buried" along with all the other POD historical novels. Well you are a professor. I'm not in literary circles. Don't be so "self-depreciating" this is something marvelous. And that cover is a 10. What I'm wondering is where on your site(s) can I find any excerpts of the "Rachel's Ballads'? Sounds so Appalachian and i crave that. (i.e. Like David Hightower)

What a powerful topic! Yes, only in our connection to nature can we be truly authentic and aware of our guiding spiritual connection.
Reviewed by Debby Rosenberg 3/24/2008
Stewards of Spirit touched me immediately as more than just the tale of Rachel. Gianetta your carefully constructed prologue set the stage for me, to see into the sonnets of Rachel. I experienced the sonnets as both beautiful and lyrical to read, and they were expressed with emotional depths, linking one to the next telling a personal story. My personal favorites exist in volume II, “My mothers Words” and Unseen Glories”. The epilogue is instructional, assisting me to acknowledge the greater lesson of “being” the authentic self. “Awakening in the Light of Rachel’s Ballads”, is a perfect companion to bask one’s thoughts into, as it reflects the personal harmony with the greater world all around us in nature, which will acknowledge your thoughts with the simplest of breezes or song of a bird at just the right moment to make you smile out loud; reminding you that you are awakening to a greater reality. Anyone sensing they are on the path to higher consciousness will find comfort in this book, and for those who are so involved in everyday, stressed to their limits, will find the knowledge within these pages, to live a more satisfying life. I will reread and adore its pages often.
