Sacred Root book by Shameer Shah

Most Innovative Nature Photographer

What is the Sacred Root book?

I developed the term ‘Sacred Root’ during a time when I had been out of touch with nature for an extended period.

It became my way of describing the deep grounding and renewal I craved.

The Sacred Root book is a deep connection to nature that nourishes our being, reminding us of our intrinsic place within the Earth’s cycles.

By embracing this bond, we unlock the wisdom and energy to live a more balanced, meaningful, and empowered life rooted in harmony with ourselves, others, and the natural world.

Biography

Shameer ShahShameer was born in Nairobi, Kenya, where his overwhelming fondness for nature and the wilderness began – now living in London. He is an experienced outdoor leader and guide, photographer and conservationist — founder of Nature Kicks and the Shameer Shah Project.

Exploring the great outdoors on foot and bicycle has been his obsession since childhood. Having lived on three continents, one common theme is the great outdoors where he focuses much of his time and resources. Whether camping, bouldering, trekking or cycling, he couldn’t get enough of the wilderness, learning about habitats and capturing nature through his camera.

Shameer has a deep passion for nature, and bringing her to life through guided trips, words, and photography is his conservation. This photography book, Sacred Root, is about empowerment and a better way of life.
