From an authentic visionary and teacher – a definitive book on the Native American tradition which weaves storytelling with teachings on sacred ceremony and ritual.

The Native American tradition has long been the most popular and accessible of the earth wisdom teachings but there are few books which describe the practical ways of conducting ritual or healing practises. Consequently some of the important keys are becoming lost or changed beyond recognition.

This book brings authentic teachings from Wa’Na’Nee’Che’s Lakota and Ojibway ancestors. These include stories and visions inspired by the wisdom teachings on the sweat lodge, smoking the peace pipe, vision questing, animal totems and little known facts about the Ghost Shirt, Shape Shifters, Skin Walkers and the rites of Death and Birth.

Wa’Na’Nee’Chee’ is descended from a long line of medicine men of the Ojibway and Lakota traditions. He is a former civil rights attorney who set up the first Indian Studies programme in the US and is an acknowledged teacher of Native American wisdom. Recently he moved to Britain where he runs sweat lodges, workshops and holds talks.
