Robin Easton was born in the remote Daintree Rainforest of Queensland, Australia at the age of twenty five. In the rainforest, where Easton lived with her husband, she fell deeply in love with earth. Her world was so completely impacted by this ancient rainforest that she was inspired to write Naked In Eden, a true story filled with edge-of-your-seat adventures, fascinating animals and plants, mysteries of life and death, and forgotten magic. Living among poisonous snakes, stinging trees, and huge spiders, Easton quickly realized that she had become part of the food chain. If she wanted to stay alive, she had to face her fears and be as acutely aware as the rest of life in the forest. In Naked In Eden, Easton explains that for her, Nature was both teacher and healer.
Easton experienced Nature as a true source of solace, healing, insight, and regeneration. She says, "In the forest I felt raw and exposed... I couldn't hide from myself in the same way I'd been able to in the outside world." Totally immersed in Nature, Easton carefully observes her environment and becomes keenly aware that attributes in her are highlighted in the characteristics of plants, animals and elements (i.e. the hardness of rocks). She explains that the more that we participate with Nature on its own terms, the more we learn and understand its language, the more likely we can move towards the deeper levels of healing, peace, love, balance, and respect - all vital to complete well-being.
