Introduction: Bioregional thinking -- Grounding: finding the physical place -- Living: awakening to a live region -- Reinhabiting: recovering a bioregional culture -- Fulfilling: celebrating the spirit of place -- Imagining: creating art of the life-place -- Trading: exchanging natural values -- Planning: designing a life-place -- Building: making bioregions work -- Learning: spreading local wisdom -- Acting: taking personal responsibility.
Summary: Robert Thayer brings the concepts and promises of the growing bioregional movement to a wide audience in a book that passionately urges us to discover "where we are" as an antidote to our rootless, stressful modern lives. LifePlace is a provocative meditation on bioregionalism and what it means to live, work, eat, and play in relation to naturally, rather than politically, defined areas.
