A page from one of Saint Hildegard of Bingen books of visions.

I contacted novelist Mary Sharratt after reading her wondrous book ILLUMINATIONS to see about interviewing her, to which she agreed (see interview below), and then to my pleasant surprise she took some time to investigate my blog, and in turn asked if I would be interested in writing a guest blog post about writing and yoga for her blog Viriditas.  

Here is the post that followed…

“Yoga & Writing: How Yoga Can Help Your Writing“

 Thank you Mary!

“Viriditas”  is a Latin word meaning greenness, vitality,  fecundity, lushness, verdure, or growth. It is particularly associated with Benedictine abbess Hildegard von Bingen, who used it to refer to or symbolize spiritual and physical health as aspects of the divine nature.
