Weisheit der Urvölker für westliche Köpfe

Wisdom for Daily Life. The author Anne Wilson Schaef was commissioned by tribal elders of indigenous peoples - Native Americans, Maori, Aborigines, Africans, and others - to make the completely different perspectives and ways of life of native cultures accessible to people with Western ways of thinking. The messages of the indigenous peoples are neither content-wise nor linguistically altered and are not adapted to our Western thinking. They offer us a new perspective on everything that is: on lifestyles, relationships, family, nature, medicine, politics, child-rearing, spirituality, work, and joy in life. Each quote is followed by what the author has learned from it. In the current situation, where all life on Earth is threatened by our way of living, this wisdom can help us expand our perspective and find new solutions. These tribal peoples have succeeded for thousands of years in living in abundance and harmony with nature - and not at the expense of nature.
