Remembering 2016 and looking forward to 2017.

To the Land

I go to the woods because in the woods I feel alive, because in the woods I am home. A poem by Tim Corcoran.

Time for quiet reflection can be good for the soul. That’s what happened when author Jean Sage spent a year in contemplation, living remotely in a mountain range. She reveals some of her discoveries in her new memoir.

Santa Cruz & the Central Coast

My love affair with Santa Cruz and the central coast started when I was six years old. The meeting of sea and land at this place called the central coast is in my blood and always will be. This book is a chance for me to express my gratitude to this place for shaping my life.

Mt. Shasta the Beautiful

Mt. Shasta the Beautiful is three volumes of art books by Tim Corcoran, founder of Headwaters, celebrating the beauty of Mount Shasta and its surrounding region.

“My first winter class back in ’93 was a monumental event in my life, as my journal reveals. My connection to the Earth was so powerful (right then). I owe much of that to Tim and his presence with Nature.”

“Between the strokes of the bow drill and reading tracks in the snow, I received gifts unexpected: family, community, inspiration, laughter and the relationship with nature beyond belief.”

“As a teacher and a counselor—and simply as a human being—my life is still enhanced daily by things I learned over 20 years ago with Tim and the Headwaters family. I happily carry nature awareness and earth philosophy in my bones, even decades later. Whether it’s a long hike, or a quick walk around the block, my experience is so much deeper because of this good medicine. I am forever grateful and wholeheartedly wish the same for you.”

“I’ve been making a pilgrimage to Headwaters at least once a year for 15 years, and bringing people to this land for nearly as long. The space that Tim, Julie & the staff create is powerful & sacred, and no person is not better for having spent time here. Both of my children have been coming to this land their whole lives. There is nowhere I would rather they be, and there is no one I trust more with the lives & spirits of my children than Tim & Julie. If there is any way to get yourself and/or your children here, you should definitely do it – you won’t regret it!”
