Synopsis

'Sharing The Medicine of Love' presents original ceremonies and daily practices of expressing love to children, family and friends,based on Native American rituals. The ceremonies begin with' Moontime' for young pubescent girls; others give solace to the grieving and the depressed; the types of ceremonies are limitless. In addition, techniques are discussed to encourage dialogue in our daily lives with family, friends and children, leading to open communication where there may have been none. Everyone will want to read the intimate portrayals of caring and compassion in these loving ceremonies. Families can adapt these practices to honor their loved ones and creat new traditions. Adults, parents and grandparents are given a common sense approach to emotionally bond with children and other adults. Starting at any age, there is no child or adult that will not welcome or willingly participate in building an authentic relationship in their life. Readers will embrace the potential for personal life changing happiness. If you choose to recreate these celebrations, we believe it will benefit all who participate in your life.

We invite you to join our circle of infinite love, hope, and harmony. We will introduce unique ideas and suggest ways to help spread soul- nourishing love with those who enter your world. The 'sharing ceremonies' we have initiated were born in the ancient traditions of Val's dreams and Native American heritage. They are simple, thoughtful,and inspired. This powerful book provides the mechanism to empower readers to be instruments of love with family,friends and children. Embrace indigenous ceremonies and daily practices to change our chaos and negativity to personal light and inner peace.
