The Wind Is My Mother
The Life and Teachings of a Native American Shaman
By Bear Heart
With eloquent simplicity, one of the world’s last Native American Medicine Men 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
