"We want to live as if there is no other place," Hogan tells us, "as if we will always be here. We want to live with devotion to the world of waters and the universe of life." In offering praise to sky, earth, water, and animals, she calls us to witness how each living thing is alive in a conscious world with its own integrity, grace, and dignity. In Dwellings, Hogan takes us on a spiritual quest borne out of the deep past and offers a more hopeful future as she seeks new visions and lights ancient fires.

Long before it came to be known as Duluth, the land at the western tip of Lake Superior was known to the Ojibwe as Onigamiising, "the place of the small portage." There the Ojibwe lived in keeping with the seasons, moving among different camps for hunting and fishing, for cultivating and gathering, for harvesting wild rice and maple sugar. InOnigamiisingLinda LeGarde Grover accompanies us through this cycle of the seasons, one year in a lifelong journey on the path to Mino Bimaadiziwin, the living of a good life.
In fifty short essays, Grover reflects on the spiritual beliefs and everyday practices that carry the Ojibwe through the year and connect them to this northern land of rugged splendor. As the four seasons unfold--from Ziigwan (Spring) through Niibin and Dagwaagin to the silent, snowy promise of Biboon--the award-winning author writes eloquently of the landscape and the weather, work and play, ceremony and tradition and family ways, from the homey moments shared over meals to the celebrations that mark life's great events. Now a grandmother, a Nokomis, beginning the fourth season of her life, Grover draws on a wealth of stories and knowledge accumulated over the years to evoke the Ojibwe experience of Onigamiising, past and present, for all time.
Non-Indian theologian and editor Nerburn attempts to bridge the gap between the world into which I had been born and the world of a people I had grown to know and love by narrating the fascinating toils and truths of Dan, a 78-year-old Lakota man.
Against an unflinching backdrop of 1990s reservation life and the majestic spaces of the western Dakotas, Neither Wolf nor Dog tells the story of two men, one white and one Indian, locked in their own understandings yet struggling to find a common voice. In this award-winning book, acclaimed author Kent Nerburn draws us deep into the world of a Native American elder named Dan, who leads Kent through Indian towns and down forgotten roads that swirl with the memories of the Ghost Dance and Sitting Bull. Along the way we meet a vivid cast of characters -- ranging from Jumbo, a 400-pound mechanic, to Annie, an eighty-year-old Lakota woman living in a log cabin with no running water. An unlikely cross between On the Road and Black Elk Speaks, Neither Wolf nor Dog takes us past the myths and stereotypes of the Native American experience, revealing an America few ever see.

This dual chambered hollow clay replica of a pre-Colombian whistling vessel bears an anthropomorphic form, likely a shaman, emptying a large vessel into a smaller container. Sculpted by ethnomusicologist Jose Vitancio Humeres of Peru, it is a replica of an original design. "I think the sounds these instruments make were to create positive energy," says Vitancio Humeres.
Constructed of two chambers, as well as a system of air ducts and aqueducts, the vessel is filled partially with water, and when held and tipped, pushes the air outward to create melodic sounds, depending on the size and number of whistle holes. The whistle on this piece works with a strong sound. A functional whistling vessel and a brilliant piece of art. Exquisitely made in Peru.

Twenty-five years ago, a young musician and painter named Martin Prechtel wandered through the brilliant landscapes of Mexico and Guatemala. Arriving at Santiago Atitlan, a Tzutujil Mayan village on the breathtaking shores of Lake Atitlan, Prechtel met Nicolas Chiviliu Tacaxoy--perhaps the most famous shaman in Tzutujil history--who believed Prechtel was the new student he had asked the gods to provide. For the next thirteen years, Prechtel studied the ancient Tzutujil culture and became a village chief and a famous shaman in his own right.In Secrets of the Talking Jaguar, Prechtel brings to vivid life the sights, sounds, scents, and colors of Santiago Atitlan: its magical personalities, its beauty, its material poverty and spiritual richness, its eight-hundred-year-old rituals juxtaposed with quintessential small-town gossip. The story of his education is a tale filled with enchantment, danger, passion, and hope.
Honeybees are fascinating creatures. But in today’s rushed world our only thoughts of bees seem to be about what “busy bees” we have to be to stay afloat in this economy. Dancing with a Thousand Bees offers a different perspective. Inspired by the multifaceted approach that bees themselves take to creating, author Karrie Marie Baxley weaves together visual art, poetry, and prose to create her story of a honeybee, a woman, and the magic of nature. When an artist decides to move from the city to the country and take up beekeeping, she has no idea the impact her decision will make on her life. Embarking on a surprising journey of self-discovery, which also awakens her to the mystical world around her, she begins to see just how critical the tiny bee is to life on this planet—and how much we all can learn from one of nature’s greatest feminine masters.
Touching on themes of environmentalism, feminism, and shamanism, this book is a creative, layered story that educates, inspires, and delights. Addressing fun facts about the honeybee as well as the plight it currently faces, the author recognizes that the first step toward changing our environmental impact is to be awestruck—and she writes accordingly.

In The Key of Earth is a celebration of our planet as a living organism - its pulse, breath, rhythms, and cycles. In this ambient recording, Marjorie de Muynck, sound healer and pioneer of works composed in the key of Ohm, bends and reinvents the boundaries between sound and music through seldom-heard harmonics created with acoustic instruments, all supported by the primordial tone of Ohm, a scientifically calculated frequency that matches the elliptical path of our planet as it orbits the sun. The effect is symphonic and inspirational, evoking the macrocosm and the forces of creation.
Featured instruments include bass, baritone saxophone, Native American flute, Brazilian berimbau, vocals, Ohm Crystal Bowl, and four octaves of Ohm Tuning Forks!
