More about the book: My Sap is Rising: A Pilgrimage of Holistic Mental Health Healing with Hildegard of Bingen and Afred Adler by Danae M. Ashley, M. Div., M.A., LMFT

What could a revolutionary 12th-century German mystic and a 20th-century Austrian psychotherapist have to do with one another? More than you might imagine.

My Sap Is Rising invites you on a pilgrimage of discovery and healing. Walk with me along the Hildegard of Bingen Pilgrimage Way as you explore holistic mental health healing through the wisdom of two extraordinary teachers separated by eight centuries - yet united in their approach to wholeness.

Part spiritual memoir, part self-help, part educational, this book weaves together ancient remedies and modern psychology, offering insights you can apply to your own journey toward healing. You'll discover how medieval wisdom speaks powerfully to contemporary life, and how the greening power of viriditas—the life force Hildegard celebrated—can rise within you again.

Know what’s Happening Next — before everyone else does.
