A transformative collection of essays on the power of walking to connect with ourselves, each other, and nature itself. In 2010, Jonathon Stalls and his blue heeler husky mix began their 242-day walk across the United States, relying on each other and the kindness of strangers along the way. In this collection of essays, Stalls explores walking as waking up: how a cross-country journey through the family farms of West Virginia, the deep freedom of Nevada's High desert, and everywhere in between unlocked connections to his deepest aches and dreams-and opened new avenues for renewal, connection,...
A transformative collection of essays on the power of walking to connect with ourselves, each other, and nature itself. In 2010, Jonathon Stalls and his blue heeler husky mix began their 242-day walk across the United States, relying on each other and the kindness of strangers along the way. In this collection of essays, Stalls explores walking as waking up: how a cross-country journey through the family farms of West Virginia, the deep freedom of Nevada's High desert, and everywhere in between unlocked connections to his deepest aches and dreams-and opened new avenues for renewal, connection, and change. While most of us won't walk or roll across the country, the deep wisdom and insights that Stalls receives from the people, land, and animals he meets on his pilgrimage have profound impacts for each of us. He shares how walking deepened his relationship to himself as a gay man, offering deep and clarifying emotional medicine. He confronts the systemic racism, classism, and ableism that shape and reshape the communities he walks through. And he invites readers to become awakened activists, to begin healing our culture's profound separation from the natural world. WALK is for those who crave to feel and embody, not just know and study, their way through complex themes that live in each chapter: vulnerability, human dignity, presence, mystery, and resistance. With dedicated practices-like connecting to Earth stewardship, moving into vulnerability, and walking and rolling with intention-Stalls' WALK is an urgent and glorious call to slow down, look around, and engage with the world in front of us. It awakens us to what we miss when we're driving by, flying over, and rushing past what surrounds us. It's an invitation to move, to connect, to participate deeply in the world-and to dissolve the barriers that disconnect us from each other and the living Earth.
