What a shame that I'm not a fortune teller. I would tell fortunes only with flowers and I would heal the earth's wounds with a rainbow.
—by Nika Turbina, Russian poet

”Wise Woman Ways to Boost Your Energy” ”Are there ways to boost energy that are effective and healthy? My guide, Grandmother Growth, gave me some ideas of how to help myself when I feel bone-tired. And I gathered together the best remedies I know, plus the wisdom of my Wise Woman friends, so you can help yourself too, when you are too weary for words.” By Susun Weed, one of America 's best-known authorities on herbal medicine and natural approaches to women's health.

From a modern standpoint, the shamanic journey is a very useful means of accessing inner wisdom. It
is a method of perceiving the psyche and world of spirit, as well as a means of gaining deeper insight into the world around us. The journey can be taken by anyone who has the intention of knowing themselves and the willingness to undergo the
inner initiations that will lead to deep healing and deep self-knowing.
