The Great Physician: Medicinal Poetry for the Anthropocene is Dr. Mines' first major collection of poems. Poetry, she says, helps make possible the spaciousness needed to match our inner experience to the outer catastrophe that is accelerating before our eyes. It helps us to understand. These poems are inner experiences through which she, and indirectly the reader, find a way to understand planetary experience, personal and generational cause and effect, and hopefully, the courage and energy to change organically-from war, intolerance, fear, ennui.
In her autobiographical poetry and prose, Dr. Mines shares how her personal and professional background shaped her insights into a fusion of trauma recovery and climate activism. In her global activism through her Climate Change & Consciousness nonprofit, Dr. Mines focuses on humanity's forward moving direction where inner and outer climates meet. In that place of mystery is our connection with the natural world and the living systems waiting to communicate with us, to give us what data cannot record.
In more than a dozen books that reflect her three decades of research as a neuroscientist and embryologist. She has investigated shock and trauma as a survivor, a professional, a clinical researcher, and a healthcare provider. Her work has resulted in her nonprofit, The TARA Approach, which provides practical means for the systemic change she promotes as a Regenerative Health paradigm. Her training and healing modality is used by individuals internationally and by professional counselors and organizations such as addiction clinics, abuse centers, and refugee charities.
