Inhaltsangabe

Time Is of the Essence is part memoir, part design manifesto, and part field guide for living sustainably in body, mind, and community. Written from the cliffs of Big Sur and inspired by the landscapes of Esalen, Henry Miller, and the Human Potential Movement, this intimate reflection traces one artist’s journey through burnout, risk, and renewal.

Weaving personal narrative with systems thinking, ecological design, and creative philosophy, Rainey King explores how we can sustain the human experience through care, feedback, and connection. From the redwoods of Pfeiffer Falls to the restless flight of a crow, every story becomes a lesson in resilience and interdependence.

Both poetic and practical, this book invites readers, artists, educators, and seekers alike, to imagine sustainability not as a discipline, but as a way of being: relational, regenerative, and deeply human.

Perfect for readers of:

• Robin Wall Kimmerer’s Braiding Sweetgrass

• Kate Raworth’s Doughnut Economics

• Peter Senge’s The Fifth Discipline

• Design educators and creative practitioners exploring ecological literacy
