The Wind Is My Mother Zusammenfassung

The Wind Is My Mother: The Life and Teachings of a Native American Shaman Bear Heart

With eloquent simplicity, Native American medicine man Bear Heart demonstrates how traditional tribal wisdom can help us maintain spiritual and physical health in today's world.

"As a child I was taught, 'Chebon, the way to attain the beauty in life is through harmony. Be in harmony with all things, but most important, be in harmony with yourself first. A lot will go on in your life, some good, some bad-people may argue and some will try to take control of your life-but that one word, harmony, will neutralize any problems and help your life to become beautiful.'"-from The Wind is My Mother

"A compelling and important work...Bear Heart is a gifted storyteller-readers of all backgrounds will be inspired by his lessons of how to apply traditional Native American wisdom to maintain balance in today's world...Bear Heart's is a truthful, honest voice which has let us into his world, and our world is better for it."-Body, Mind, Spirit

Praise for The Wind Is My Mother: The Life and Teachings of a Native American Shaman

"This fascinating book is a rare combination of universal truths and practical applications. It is an excellent manual for living a healthy life in a complex world."-John Gray, author of Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus

"Bear Heart, a full-blooded Muskogee Creek Indian and one of the last 'trained' medicine men, shares this knowledge, combining it with his more formal, graduate [studies] in psychology to build a bridge between Native American and modern spirituality."-Publishers Weekly

"At once mystical and utterly practical, Bear Heart's message is not a call to conversion, but the testimony of a life so fully lived that it can heal others. To read it is to be inspired to live one's own life with more attention, harmony and hope."-Lorene Cary, author of If Sons, Then Heirs: A Novel

"Bear Heart, a Muskogee Creek Indian medicine man, tells his story, including his insights about receiving the power of the Great Spirit through fasting, chanting, and vision quests."-St. Petersburg Times

"Inspiring...Bear Heart weaves together anecdotes and philosophy demonstrating that traditional Native American wisdom can be applied in today's world to live a peaceful, balanced life. A charismatic storyteller, Bear Heart's autobiography is rich not only with the amazing accomplishments and wisdom of his life as a medicine man but also with the ages-old legends of his people."-Evolving Woman
