About this lesson

Reflecting decades of work, Herman students Anna Racicot and Gabrielle Herbertson organized, edited and compiled two books containing hundreds of Herman’s lessons. The books, Earth Journey I and Earth Journey II, are the source of most of the weekly lessons published on this site.
Each of the books contains more than 100 photos of Herman’s paintings, an introduction detailing the history and suggested use of the lessons, and an appendix that contains additional information about the communities practices.
Both books are available for sale through the Earth Journey organization’s online store.
A Herman Rednick Lesson
I can move out of a state of chaos when I know that within my center there is great peace and freedom. The intensity of the spirit within has a power that will calm the mind and body. When we are caught in the trap of a turbulent mind, we can break this hypnotic hold by concentration on the divine center within the heart. Stay there in spite of the storm and chaos without. When the peace is secured within, you will quiet the storm around you.
