Crossing into Medicine Country

Here is David Carson's personal story of his initiation into the healing rites of the Choctaw with medicine woman Mary Gardener. Through her teachings and his own mind-bending experiences, he gives us a glimpse into an alternate reality. "Part Mark Twain, part Carlos Castenada, David Carson is a born storyteller. His tale is a rich broth of enchantment, wisdom, and holy mischief." --Julia Cameron, author of "The Artist's Way" "In his "Crossing into Medicine Country," David Carson sings a particularly American song. . . . His lively style, quiet wit, and sharp perceptions combine to show us that more ancient land that runs parallel to the one we think we live in, the one Indian people know is real. To read this book is to draw nearer to truths that transcend superficial facts.^ A great read." --Paula Gunn Allen, author of "The Sacred Hoop" ""Crossing into Medicine Country" is just the recipe for our modern lives and a vital contribution in these changing times when people are looking to traditional shamanic knowledge to provide us with tools to guide us on our journey into the future. This is a work that will strike at the consciousness of many." --Lynda Hill, astrologer and author of "360 Degrees of Wisdom" ""Crossing into Medicine Country" is a rare account of a true transformational experience, which holds the key to profound healing. David Carson reveals sacred Native American knowledge in a unique, new way. Here is an exceptional opportunity to follow him on his journey through 'myths with hidden meaning and a deep touching of the soul.'" --Olga Kharitidi, MD, author of "Entering the Circle" and "The Master of Lucid Dreams" Part Mark Twain, part Carlos Castenada, David Carson is a born storyteller.^ His tale is a rich broth of enchantment, wisdom, and holy mischief.
