Healing Through Indigenous Wisdom

Mind Body & Soul Ezine Book Review: Healing Through Indigenous Wisdom by Valerie Ringland PhD. Published by Rockpool Publishing. RRP US $18.95 : UK £16.99 

This work book helps you to deepen your understanding of yourself and others. By learning about indigenous cultures, we learn about our own. It is designed to be used each week over the course of a year and it provides exercises and space to record your perceptions. In addition to altars, animals, ceremonies, stories and other shamanic topics, it covers personal trauma, addictions, emotional problems that beset all people wherever they are in the world. It is an exceptional book and one that brings about change through guidance and life wisdom gained from older tribal cultures. 

The author, Valerie Cloud Clearer Schwan Ringland holds a doctorate in Social Work and has additional qualifications that aid her ability to write simply, yet effectively, about the healing methods of the many indigenous cultures she had studied. A fascinating book that will aid self understanding and will bring beneficial change. 

Insightful. Recommended. Review by Wendy Stokes https://wendystokes.co.uk
