Her memoir From the Fire Into the Garden, speaks of her pain and struggles from a heart stopping diagnosis to healing through the deepest of spiritual paths as she opened herself to the possibility of living and to the creation of Healing Gardens. In her new book, Deborah explores a year of insight and healing with daily meditations. Along with her husband, Deborah owns and operates Healing Gardens at Stone Hill Farm, a meditative sanctuary for everyone.
