It has been clear to me for a long time that the creativity of early inhabitants of the continent was awesome and they were truly resourceful. Communication, Portable Habitat, Transportation, Environmental Protection, Spiritual awareness, Aromatherapy, Spiritual purification, Healing, Vibrational Balancing, Thought Form anchoring of Sacred Space and the power of blessing were early innovations that were used with great success. I have felt some of the power from experiencing rituals that have been passed down even though my skin is pale and white. The elders still share to all who are willing...

Shamanism is a young word for an ancient practice. Academic writing about shamanism - as a general term to refer to Indigenous spiritual traditions - is often controversial. In this volume, John Farrell Kelly suggests that shamanist experiences may emerge organically in non-Indigenous populations and that it may be valuable to reflect on these experiences and to develop thought about them. In a series of independent chapters that move fluidly between creative and academic writing, Kelly uses feminist theory and emergent writing methodologies in feminist studies to express a style of shamanism...

Through journaling exercises and expanded-awareness practices, many of which involve working with and in nature, and which are influenced by Jungian and shamanic traditions, anyone can tap into hidden...

Shamans were a part of all early civilizations and they remain among us today, despite the fact that the "modern world" is less aware or appreciative of their role in the fabric of life. Shamans are often misunderstood, as fakes, frauds, and fools tend to give true shamans and shamanism a reputation that does not match its true nature and purpose. Someone needs to set the story straight. Nightwing, or Roberta Lee, sets out to do so with her memoir Nightwing: Reflections of a Traditional Shaman.
