Affirming words from the Abbess Christine Valters Paintner PhD
who lead the enriching 3 weeks Pilgrimage
of walking in Hildegard of Bingen’s footsteps in the Benedictine Way
which I was a part of with 30 other pilgrims in Autumn 2013
Christine’s latest book Dreaming of Stones is a very reflective selection of poetry
“Hildegard of Bingen was a woman of extraordinary creative expression and this book approaches her wisdom through the gift of poetry which allows us to move into a more intuitive space. It is a book to slow us down, that invites us to ponder, and calls us to follow Hildegard toward a growing greenness in our lives.”
