New Age. Nonfiction. HTML:

In Native American tradition, everything has a spiritâ??even an illness or injury. "If we know how to listen," teaches Dr. Lewis Mehl-Madrona, "our health issues will often reveal the secret to their own healing."

On Native American Healing Meditations, Dr. Mehl-Madrona offers insights and practices to help you access the healing power of the spirit world. Drawing from his experience as both a medical doctor and a lifelong student of traditional Cherokee and Lakota medicine, he presents four guided practices based on indigenous wisdom:

  • Finding Your Spirit Guideâ??calling upon your unseen allies and ancestors for protection, guidance, and healing energy
  • Heroic Journeyâ??rewrite your life story to one of greater health and happiness
  • Dialogue with the spirit of an illnessâ??letting your health challenges tell you why they have come into your life and how to heal them
  • Traveling to the Futureâ??receiving valuable information from your older self
  • While Western medicine often sees healthcare as a battle against a disease or injury, Native American tradition holds that true healing comes through dialogueâ??with our afflictions, our spiritual allies, and our own innate wisdom. With gentle guidance and a rich understanding of tribal medicine, Dr. Mehl-Madrona offers you essential practices for tapping into the resources of the spirit world with Native American Healing… (more)

    One half because I do not like his voice or narration: his voice is too purposely "soft"... as if I'm being spoken to in a manner that is falsely comforting and the manner of narration, he breaks/pauses in the midst of a sentence as if in writing he were using too many commas. He sounds forced and unnatural.

    The man comes from Lakota (father), Trail of Tears (mother) & european heritage. He has spent time (since the 70's) w/ Native Elders learning about the Spiritual aspects of healing & psychology. He speaks about healing from the point of view of our "stories".

    There are two discs each comprised of several parts.

    Disc One: Introduction; Everything's a story; Circle and community; Our many selves; Four Directions song; Guided practice (Anywhere prayer); The world is a magical place; Guided practice (Finding your Spirit guide); and Guided practice (Heroic journey).

    Disc Two: Introduction; Dialogue w/ the spirit of illness; Guided practice (Traveling tot the future); and The story of bluebird and coyote.

    I'm sure I would have preferred to have read this, or been in his presence in order to learn more of what he has to teach. ( )
