Think Indigenous will help you to find your purpose in life, connect with your own indigenous roots and ancestors and remember that all beings are divinely connected. With each generation, we have drifted further and further away from our ability to recognize and connect with the source of our original design. In this modern world, we spend our attention in ways that benefit the powers that be, and not ourselves or the earth. Think Indigenous centres around three concepts: · The way of the seven generations: conscious living. · The way of the buffalo: mindful consumption. · The way of the village: collective impact. Author Doug Good Feather, with Doug Pineda, shares the knowledge that has been handed down through his Lakota elders to help you connect with your purpose in life, find your personal power and discover your place in this interconnected web of Spirit, Mother Earth and humanity as a whole.
