The Price Of A Gift

by Gerald Mohatt, The Price Of A Gift Books available in PDF, EPUB, Mobi Format. Download The Price Of A Gift books, Joseph Eagle Elk (1931?91) was an effective and highly respected traditional Lakota healer. He practiced for nearly thirty years, treating serious physical and mental illnesses among the people of the Rosebud Reservation and elsewhere. In 1990 he began collaborating on his memoir with Gerald Mohatt, a close friend and cross-cultural psychologist. Eagle Elk?s story of his life, practice, and beliefs provides a uniquely introspective, demystified, and informative look at the career of a traditional Native American healer. We learn how a persistent vision and recurring visits by thunder spirits led Eagle Elk long ago to become a healer. On a more general level, we gain valuable insights into how Lakota healers practice today. Eagle Elk?s story and teachings also demonstrate the importance of community support and consensus in the development of traditional healers. Gerald Mohatt?s perspective as a cross-cultural psychologist enables him to highlight the psychological dimensions and efficacy of Eagle Elk?s healings and place them within a cross-cultural context. Eagle Elk?s life and career are presented in a way that brings together formative episodes from his life, selected teachings that emerged from those experiences, and case studies in healing. This arrangement allows readers to grasp the close relationship between the personal and cultural dimensions of traditional healing and to understand how and why this practice continues to affect and help others.

The Price Of A Gift

by Darrel William McGovern, The Price Of A Gift Books available in PDF, EPUB, Mobi Format. Download The Price Of A Gift books, Harry Street's character is the catalyst for this book which binds the several principals and their separate actions to make the story flow. Although the work is fiction, Harry Street was a real person from the author's boyhood. A gentleman, always affable and decidedly English. However, gentleman he may have been, the author could never reconcile why he succumbed to his exile so readily and why his family turned their back on their son. The author has taken a liberty and changed Harry's easy disposition to express his wrath for Harry's ready acceptances of his circumstances. Too, the time frame has been altered to reveal an entwined vendetta that takes the reader from the horrors of the First World War, to the pampered lives of the aristocracy and the vastness of Australia. A race to secure aspirations for one man, domination for another and reparation for yet another.

The Price Of A Gift

by Ashley Drake, The Price Of A Gift Books available in PDF, EPUB, Mobi Format. Download The Price Of A Gift books, On the outside, Hannah Price had it all; popularity, beauty, and a nice family with an upstanding status in the small Hudson, North Carolina community. It was a facade Hannah has worked, her entire life, to keep up. In The Price of a Gift: The Price Of Secrets Series Hannah is not only entering her high school sophomore year with the same insecurities and pressures of any typical teenager, but also with the heavy burden of an inherited secret. Hannah is a psychic, who, among other things, can speak with the living impaired. Hannah, positive that if her secret got out it would ensure a padded cell with her name on it, has protected the knowledge of her abilities from the rest of the world. Her parents and Jaycee, Hannah's life long best friend, were the only exceptions. Hannah's parents consider her abilities a gift, while Hannah sees it as a curse that is preventing her from enjoying a normal life. Especially after Samantha, a living impaired, comes to Hannah pleading for help, claiming a shadow demon is after her soul. Just when Hannah thinks it couldn't get any worse, her parent's decide to sell their house. Hannah is introduced to the Carver's, the family new to the area, that was going to buy the only home she has ever known. Their oldest son, Daniel Carver, quickly catches her attention. But after an embarrassing first impression, Hannah is sure she will never see him again. Daniel, however, proves that he is not so easy to get rid of. With secrets of his own, Daniel is determined to help Samantha cross over to the other side before the shadow demon has a chance to harm Hannah. Hannah soon realizes she is not alone in her supernatural battle. She has the support of Daniel, and Jaycee, whose actions show she can be more than just a sidekick. Will juggling a social life with a paranormal one cost Hannah, and will the price be Samantha's soul?
