Sacred Instructions: Indigenous Wisdom for Living Spirit-Based Change
Description
A “profound and inspiring” collection of ancient indigenous wisdom for “anyone
wanting the healing of self, society, and of our shared planet” (Peter Levine,
author of Waking the Tiger: Healing Trauma). A Penobscot Indian draws on the
experiences and wisdom of the First Nations to address environmental justice,
water protection, generational trauma, and more. Drawing from ancestral
knowledge, as well as her experience as an attorney and activist, Sherri
Mitchell addresses some of the most crucial issues of our day—including
indigenous land rights, environmental justice, and our collective human
survival. Sharing the gifts she has received from the elders of her tribe, the
Penobscot Nation, she asks us to look deeply into the illusions we have
labeled as truth and which separate us from our higher mind and from one
another. Sacred Instructions explains how our traditional stories set the
framework for our belief systems and urges us to decolonize our language and
our stories. It reveals how the removal of women from our stories has impacted
our thinking and disrupted the natural balance within our communities. For all
those who seek to create change, this book lays out an ancient world view and
set of cultural values that provide a way of life that is balanced and humane,
that can heal Mother Earth, and that will preserve our communities for future
generations. Read more
