I'm thinking of contacting one.

I don't know TOO much about it but it couldn't hurt right?

For those native americans on the board, could you contact me with some information about what this can entail? Im interested, and as far as I can see it couldnt hurt and maybe would help me with some of the issues I am going through.

I too have often thought about doing some thing similar to what you are seeking...... as I believe our Native American Ancestors had a grasp on Spirituality that many of miss, never experience.

I would be interested in any information you get. Thx.

I have quite a few Native American friends, and I belong to a board that addresses exploitation of native culture. Please use extreme caution if you plan to seek out a Native American "healer" because SO MANY of them aren't for real. Many of them are just out to take your money or make themselves feel good, with no regard for you.

Here's a link that might help you pick out the phonies:

i have 'accidentally' come across some native healers... many people are not what they pretend to be it seems, but in my own experience, it is up to me to decide the truth of words, regardless of the sources...

may we all find healing...

just a note....sanityseeker....aka chocolatelover......had a huge posting group on the previous spiritual forum.....I can't seem to find all that information at this time, but you might be able to search out what was posted there....you would find much information that would be an interest to you....I am sure.

wish I had a link for you....just couldn't find it right now.

There is so much of value that comes from our native amreicans that can become a wonderful part of life & most can work even with other beliefs
