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 breathe in rhythm and my body and mind are still.
I breathe with a mantra.
I breathe and my heart glows with Christ fire.
I breathe and I enfold my brother.
I breathe and the love of Christ enfolds me.
I live in the divine breath of God.
My body moves in rhythm with the earth.
My soul is one with the City of God.
