“Natural principles as a manual for the modern world”
Nature holds the secret to your happiness, health and wellbeing. Now at last, you can unlock it.
We associate trees and woodlands with harmony, health and vitality. And yet, so often, we struggle to experience these qualities in our everyday lives.
What if we could harness the wisdom of the forest for ourselves?
Think like a Tree, the first guide of its kind, reveals the underlying principles of nature’s secrets of success one by one, and demonstrates ways you can apply them to your own life, in this practical personal development guide.
These natural principles evolved over billions of years—they’re the rules and patterns that all living things have in common for:
- finding purpose
- growth and success
- solving problems
- building resilience
- creating ideal conditions to thrive
- developing positive relationships
- leaving a lasting legacy
Drawing on woodland examples from around the globe, Think like a Tree shares the amazing abilities of trees, their, evolutionary success stories and their abilities to heal.
Real-world case studies demonstrate how the Think like a Tree principles are being applied right now by people around the world.
Exercises for each of the principles allow readers to put into practice the wisdom shared by the living world in this unique and practical personal development book. .
This book guides you to discover your own personal route to happiness, health, success and fulfilment—whatever your circumstances.
The natural principles, harnessed from observations in nature, can be used for: .
- wellbeing
- physical health
- psychological health and happiness
- overcoming a life-challenge
- motivation
- coping with stress, anxiety and depression
- transforming your life
- relationship problems
- work life balance
- planning for the future, and more!
In addition, the book shares secrets from environmental philosophy, environmental psychology, biomimicry, permaculture, green living and sustainable business, to make this a comprehensive guide for living the life that you want to lead, whilst considering your impact on the planet.
Throughout the book author Sarah Spencer shares her inspirational real-life story of health recovery - how she used the natural principles to overcome significant illness, including chronic fatigue, allergies, auto-immune disease and migraine, and find her purpose and achieve happiness. She now spends her time inspiring others to use trees and nature to design the life they want to lead via books, workshops and online courses.
Author Sarah Spencer is passionate about trees. She lives on a smallholding in the National Forest in Derbyshire in the centre of the UK with her family, and loves growing vegetables, fruit and flowers. She manages a woodland that she designed and planted. Whilst designing landscapes, gardens and woodlands, Sarah came to realise that the same principles that make forests successful and enduring can be applied to our own lives. Sarah has used these tools and principles in a wide range of applications in her own life.
Edited by Gina Walker; and beautiful illustrations for each group of principles (in the print edition) by Eva Elliott Spencer make this a book to treasure.

Store description
In 2002, World of Books Group was founded on an ethos to do good, protect the planet and support charities by enabling more goods to be reused. Since then, we've grown into to a global company pioneering the circular economy. Today, we drive the circular economy through three re-commerce brands: - Wob: Through Wob, we sell. We provide affordable, preloved books and media to customers all over the world. A book leaves our collection of over seven million titles and begins a new chapter every two seconds, enabling more goods to be reused. - Ziffit: Through Ziffit, we buy. We give people around the world the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet, by trading their unwanted books and media. - Shopiago: Through Shopiago, we help others. By sharing the technology that has grown World of Books Group into the business it is today, we’re helping charities increase revenue and reduce waste through re-commerce.…
