"Joanna has written an enchanting and practical book about natural magic that will appeal both to the beginner and advanced practitioner alike. Written in an easy conversational style, she offers simple everyday practices that can easily be incorporated into everyday life. Above all, she encourages us to listen to our hearts and souls rather than follow complex, established traditions, and emphasises the importance of trusting our own experience as we explore the beauty and wisdom of the natural world. An invaluable handbook for the budding hedge witch!"—Mara Freeman, author of Kindling the Celtic Spirit and director of the Avalon Mystery School

"This book is an absolute joy to read. It is both simple and profound. It guides the reader step by step in the core practice of the hedge witch (spirit travelling into the Otherworld—known as hedge riding.) And, all is presented in the context of natural magic and nature's cycles. The author's approach is non-dogmatic, encouraging everyone towards an individual and creative approach. She knows from experience just how to walk with one foot in Faerie and one in the Everyday World—without recourse to hallucinogens—and she tells us about it and what can be gained from it. This is the real deal. Although it is written for beginners, it made me think, and it reinspired me. I give it ten stars!"—Rae Beth, author of Hedge Witch
