Description
This book tells the incredible story of a boy growing up into a man living his vision with Nature as his life’s foundation, healer and teacher. It tells of Tim Corcoran’s childhood adventurous journeys and the life lessons he learned along the way. From a six year old boy running through the once abundant orchards of what is now Silicon Valley, to exploring the Canadian Wilderness on his own at age 17. This book will inspire the reader to bring Nature back to our children as a foundation in their lives.
As we move into the future and the attack on Nature continues from humankind, children being raised today will need a deep connection to the natural world in order to help heal nature, plus find stability and inspiration for their own lives. After all, Nature is an amazing teacher and constant friend; it just takes knowing how to listen and communicate to the Earth, and the teachings come flooding in.
As Tim Corcoran always says, “Get out in the woods, it’s the best place to be.”
This book is a must read for parents and children alike. It will change your life.
About the Author
Tim Corcoran’s Irish heritage, as taught to him by his uncle and grandfather, has linked him deeply to Earth people’s philosophy of life. He first went to the woods at age six. He knew then that it was his home. Tim began a career teaching wildlife conservation in 1974. During this time he learned how to communicate with the spirits of the animals he worked with, enhancing his abilities to connect on an intimate level with them.
He has an extensive background in working with wildlife. He has worked at the Alberta Game Farm in Alberta, Canada as an animal caretaker, the Crandon Park Zoo in Miami, Florida as an animal relocation director, and Marine World Africa U.S.A. as a chimp and elephant trainer. Tim co-founded the Native Animal Rescue in Santa Cruz, California, rescuing and releasing injured wildlife. He also took that opportunity to speak at schools to educate children on wildlife conservation. Tim founded Headwaters Outdoor School in Mt. Shasta, California, and has been teaching wilderness living skills to children and adults since 1992.
