by Sherri Mitchell (Author), Larry Dossey (Foreword by)
A "profound and inspiring" collection of ancient indigenous wisdom for "anyone wanting the healing of self, society, and of our shared planet" (Peter Levine, author of Waking the Tiger: Healing Trauma).
A Penobscot Indian draws on the experiences and wisdom of the First Nations to address environmental justice, water protection, generational trauma, and more.
Drawing from ancestral knowledge, as well as her experience as an attorney and activist, Sherri Mitchell addresses some of the most crucial issues of our day--including indigenous land rights, environmental justice, and our collective human survival. Sharing the gifts she has received from the elders of her tribe, the Penobscot Nation, she asks us to look deeply into the illusions we have labeled as truth and which separate us from our higher mind and from one another.
