Seasoned master shamanic healer and spiritual teacher, Gregory Drambour, in his 35 year career has guided over 12,000 clients to a better understanding of the code of the spiritual warrior and hundreds into successful healing practices. Now he’s sharing his teachings with you through The Shaman Series. You’ll discover: How to create partnerships with the Tree-, Plant-, and Rock-People How to "see" inside clients to their core issues. How a shaman is guided in healing clients. How to merge with your animal totem and develop an intimate partner and friendship. How to project yourself to another location. How to listen and act on the wisdom inside you. How to overcome your own resistance to your healing gifts How to clear yourself and clients of blocks, and much, much more! The Woodstock Bridge “A marvelous adventure! I recommend it highly!” —Richard Carlson, author of Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff A lost soul. A man desperate for meaning. Can he discover his inner Warrior and unleash the power to change? Two decades after the heady 60s, John struggles to make sense of his life. With fading optimism, he’s unsure if he can ever make a difference in the world. But crossing paths with two Sioux warriors gives him another chance for mentorship and wisdom. As John learns to confront his fears, can he find the passion that makes life worth living? The Shaman & His Daughter The Shaman & His Daughter contains 18 short stories that explore the special bond between a Shaman and his apprentice daughter, Angel-Girl. Come inside and get a close-up view of a shaman-in-training and a shaman on the ground in the real world – even shopping at Safeway! Through these tender tales you’ll learn how to let Spirit guide to develop and expand your unique healing abilities The Lead Guitarist & The Sisterhood of the Wolf You have a special uniqueness inside you -- never doubt it! Do you feel there is a talent you were born with but you are not getting a chance to use it? James Ryder, the lead guitarist, is a shaman in his own right – in the same vibe as Jimi Hendrix and Jim Morrison and other musicians who embodied a connection with Spirit. James has “seeing” dreams and mystical happenings throughout the book, and his fiercely soulful guitar playing embodies a deep communication with another world. The other character, Char Montgomery is deeply bonded with her Wolf-Totem-Sister and was adopted by a Native American Crow Elder. She truly walks the path of the shaman. I felt it was important for me as a teacher to bring shamanism into real world situations in all three books. We want to walk the path of the warrior in our daily life. I hope these books reflect that mission.

Download or read book Native Storiers written by Gerald Vizenor and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2009-03-01 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gerald Vizenor presents in this anthology some of the best contemporary Native American Indian authors writing today. The five books from which these excerpts are drawn are published in the University of Nebraska Press’s Native Storiers series. This series introduces innovative, emergent, avant-garde Native literary artists and promotes a sense of survivance over the conventional themes of victimry, historical absence, cultural tragedy, and separation that often accompany Native characters in popular commercial fiction. These original narratives demonstrate a new and distinctive aesthetic in the literature of Native American Indians. The five Native authors in this anthology, drawing from the practices of traditional oral storiers, create an active sense of presence, both in the literary world, and the wider world of cultural studies. Native Storiers includes selections from Mending Skins by Eric Gansworth, Designs of the Night Sky by Diane Glancy, Bleed into Me by Stephen Graham Jones, Hiroshima Bugi: Atomu 57 by Gerald Vizenor, and Elsie’s Business by Frances Washburn.

Download or read book The Ojibwa of Western Canada 1780-1870 written by Laura Peers and published by Univ. of Manitoba Press. This book was released on 2009-09-08 with total page 523 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among the most dynamic Aboriginal peoples in western Canada today are the Ojibwa, who have played an especially vital role in the development of an Aboriginal political voice at both levels of government. Yet, they are relative newcomers to the region, occupying the parkland and prairies only since the end of the 18th century. This work traces the origins of the western Ojibwa, their adaptations to the West, and the ways in which they have coped with the many challenges they faced in the first century of their history in that region, between 1780 and 1870. The western Ojibwa are descendants of Ojibwa who migrated from around the Great Lakes in the late 18th century. This was an era of dramatic change. Between 1780 and 1870, they survived waves of epidemic disease, the rise and decline of the fur trade, the depletion of game, the founding of non-Native settlement, the loss of tribal lands, and the government's assertion of political control over them. As a people who emerged, adapted, and survived in a climate of change, the western Ojibwa demonstrate both the effects of historic forces that acted upon Native peoples, and the spirit, determination, and adaptive strategies that the Native people have used to cope with those forces. This study examines the emergence of the western Ojibwa within this context, seeing both the cultural changes that they chose to make and the continuity within their culture as responses to historical pressures. The Ojibwa of Western Canada differs from earlier works by focussing closely on the details of western Ojibwa history in the crucial century of their emergence. It is based on documents to which pioneering scholars did not have access, including fur traders' and missionaries' journals, letters, and reminiscences. Ethnographic and archaeological data, and the evidence of material culture and photographic and art images, are also examined in this well-researched and clearly written history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this stunning work of narrative nonfiction, Lars Anderson recounts one of college football’s greatest contests: Carlisle vs. Army, the fateful 1912 gridiron clash that had far-reaching implications both real and symbolic. The story centers on three men: Glenn “Pop” Warner, who came to the Carlisle Indian School in 1903 and saw beyond its assimilationist agenda, molding the Carlisle Indians into a football juggernaut and smashing prejudices along the way; Jim Thorpe, who arrived at Carlisle as a troubled teenager–only to become one of America’s finest athletes, dazzling his opponents and gaining fans across the nation; and a hardnosed Kansan back named Dwight Eisenhower, who knew that by stopping Carlisle’s amazing winning streak, he could lead the Cadets of Army to glory. But beyond recounting the tale of this momentous match, Lars Anderson reveals its broader social and historical context, offering unique perspectives on sports and culture at the dawn of the twentieth century. Filled with colorful period detail, Carlisle vs. Army gives a thrilling, authoritative account of the events of an epic afternoon whose reverberations would be felt for generations. Praise for Carslisle vs. Army: “Richly detailed and gracefully written . . . In an often overlooked football era, Anderson found a true Game of the Century.” –Sports Illustrated “[A] remarkable story . . . Carlisle vs. Army is about football the way that The Natural is about baseball.” –Jeremy Schaap, author of Cinderella Man “A great sports story, told with propulsive narrative drive . . . Anderson allows himself to get inside the heads of his characters, but as in the best sports-centered nonfiction (Hillenbrand’s Seabiscuit and Frost’s Greatest Game Ever Played, for example), the technique is based on solid research.” –Booklist (starred review) “A masterly tale of the gridiron.” –Neal Bascomb, author of Red Mutiny “A magnificent story that’s as rich in American history as it is in sporting lore. Carlisle vs. Army is a dramatic and moving book, told with an unrelenting grace.” –Adrian Wojnarowski, author of The Miracle of St. Anthony “Gripping, inspiring coverage of three powerful forces’ unforgettable convergence: the sports version of The Perfect Storm.” –Kirkus Reviews

Book excerpt: The debut novel from the bestselling author of Don't Let's Go to the Dogs Tonight and Leaving Before the Rains Come. “Awe inspiring . . . An ardent, original, and beautifully wrought book.” —The New York Times Book Review Lakota Oglala Sioux Nation, South Dakota. Two Native American cousins, Rick Overlooking Horse and You Choose Watson, are pitted against each other as their tribe is torn apart by infighting. Rick chooses the path of peace and stays; You Choose, violent and unpredictable, strikes out on his own. When he returns, after three decades behind bars, he disrupts the fragile peace and threatens the lives of the entire reservation. A complex tale that spans generations and geography, Quiet Until the Thaw conjures, with the implications of an oppressed history, how we are bound not just to immediate family but to all who have come before and will come after us, and, most of all, to the notion that everything was always, and is always, connected.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gifts from the Thunder Beings examines North American Aboriginal peoples’ use of Indigenous and European distance weapons in big-game hunting and combat. Beyond the capabilities of European weapons, Aboriginal peoples’ ways of adapting and using this technology in combination with Indigenous weaponry contributed greatly to the impact these weapons had on Aboriginal cultures. This gradual transition took place from the beginning of the fur trade in the Hudson’s Bay Company trading territory to the treaty and reserve period that began in Canada in the 1870s. Technological change and the effects of European contact were not uniform throughout North America, as Roland Bohr illustrates by comparing the northern Great Plains and the Central Subarctic—two adjacent but environmentally different regions of North America—and their respective Indigenous cultures. Beginning with a brief survey of the subarctic and Northern Plains environments and the most common subsistence strategies in these regions around the time of contact, Bohr provides the context for a detailed examination of social, spiritual, and cultural aspects of bows, arrows, quivers, and firearms. His detailed analysis of the shifting usage of bows and arrows and firearms in the northern Great Plains and the Central Subarctic makes Gifts from the Thunder Beings an important addition to the canon of North American ethnology.

Download or read book To Live and Die in the West written by Jason Hook and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-01-27 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The apocalyptic clashes of culture between the land-hungry whites and the American Indians, which reached their climax in the latter half of the nineteenth century, were among the most tragic of all wars ever fought. These conflicts pitted one civilization against another, neither able to comprehend or accommodate the other. To the victor went domination of the continent, to the vanquished the destruction of their way of life. This volume describes those who took part in these wars, focusing on the Plains Indians such as the Sioux and the Cheyenne, the Apache peoples of the south-west, and their implacable foe, the US Cavalry.
