Listening to the grandmother spirit
the chance for prophetic change in contemporary healing
pp. 78-91
Abstract
In this paper, I hope to share some information that was told to me by informants from the Native American communities in Canada and the USA. I humbly present this information in the hopes of stimulating a discussion of the value of traditional healing. Furthermore, I would like to suggest that modern medicine does benefit from investigating these well-worn practices and will continue to benefit from integrating this knowledge into contemporary health practice.
