A few years ago, the author got hopelessly lost on a walk through the Surrey Hills. With no map and no other walkers in sight, she did something unexpected: she asked a tree for directions. It answered. And it was right.

That moment launched a year-long journey in which 28 trees across England's forests, sacred groves, and ancient landscapes shared their stories with her: channeled aloud, recorded, and transcribed exactly as they were given.

An ancient oak, the sole survivor in a commercial plantation, speaks about loss and individuality. Twin yews guarding the Chalice Well at Glastonbury describe the sacred energy most visitors walk right past. A tree the Forestry Commission confirmed was dead still had something to say.

Their messages are surprisingly direct: slow down, stop performing your life, feel what's actually around you. And their suggested experiments—not just advice, but things to do outdoors—give you a way to experience it yourself.

This book is for you if:

You love nature but sense there's a deeper relationship available to you
You're curious about plant consciousness, animism, or tree communication
You practice forest bathing, druidry, or nature-based spirituality
You've read The Hidden Life of Trees and want to go further — from science to direct experience

What's inside:

28 channeled tree stories, unedited and unfiltered
The author's honest narration — including her neurodivergence, her self-doubt, and why she almost published this as fiction
Botanical and historical context for each tree species
Practical outdoor exercises after every chapter, to deepen your connection with trees
Journaling prompts, to explore your experiences with nature

"This is your work: to share our wisdom."
— The Newlands Corner Yew, the tree who suggested this book
