ABSTRACT

This article presents the profile of poet and essayist Gretel Ehrlich. He was struck by lightning near her Wyoming ranch. What followed was a painful recovery and an extraordinary book, "A Match to the Heart." Ironically, Ehrlich has always been drawn to the extremes of nature. Being struck by lightning changed his life. After the accident, his healing protocol was to walk and do sitting meditation as much as he could, every day. I also listened to string quartets with headphones for at least three or four hours.
