Yoga with Trees Love Jenny's newest book. Every bit as intriguing and delightful as her Imagery for You. Even if you don't "do" yoga.... but you love trees and nature, you will enjoy this book. It will reach inside of you to that spot that really cares for the trees in your world. Before you know it, you will be interacting with your favorite trees in the way that best suits you! I'm giving it as gifts to several of my best friends! Read more
