About Spirit Recovery Medicine Bag: A Transformational

Product Description Feeling limited by circumstances, substances, or behaviors often leads to the simple, yet profound question, "Is this all there is?" This question is an opportunity to rediscover one's truth and live life more fully and authentically. Spirit Recovery Medicine Bag offers readers a path to finding their personal answer to this question in an engaging two-part format. In Part One, readers will join Lee McCormick as he reflects on his personal journey of recovery and transformation—a journey that initiated him into a life of helping others recover their own sense of self and purpose. Part Two is a medicine bag of healing practices designed to guide readers in developing self-awareness and awakening their sense of power-specifically the power of choice rooted in personal values and commitment to living those values. Covering a variety of topics addressing spirituality, awareness, and consciousness, the authors pose questions for reflection and self-investigation along the way. Spirit Recovery Medicine Bag is not a negation of Twelve-Step recovery, but a tool for expanding awareness and increasing involvement regardless of the path one is walking. In Twelve-Step language, it builds on Step 12's direction to practice these principles in all one's affairs. The authors believe that the inner journey to one's truth and the creative expression of that truth make for a good definition of spirituality, and they offer readers a very real message of the possibility of living "happy, joyous, and free" through spirit recovery.

All rights reserved. Introduction If you have more than a few self-help books on your nightstand, why would you want to add Spirit Recovery Medicine Bag to the stack? One reason might have to do with the nature of self-help books. Many of these books have some good ideas, and they work sometimes for some people, at least for a while. Perhaps you got a temporary fix―scratched the itch―but if you are still searching, you probably did not experience the healing you seek. Spirit Recovery Medicine Bag isn't about fixing or scratching; it's about healing and growing. Many self-help books, as well as most traditional therapies, operate from a compartmentalized mind-set. They isolate symptoms and treat them as being independent of one another―managing, micromanaging, and often overmedicating. They fail to look at a person as a whole human system in relationship with self, in relationship with others, and in relationship with the natural world. Compartmentalized strategies are focused on the problem and are organized around illness. They can be fine for a time for those seeking immediate help, but when the strategies fail to focus on letting go of the illness and old beliefs to make room for expansion and personal truth, their usefulness becomes debatable. Spirit Recovery Medicine Bag is organized around wellness; it honors the life within you. The varied practices in this book connect you to your inborn desire for wholeness and your amazing ability to find it when you give yourself the right instructions and get out of your own way. Your desire to heal―to feel whole―is probably why you were willing to buy one more book and try one more time. That desire is your life insisting on being lived. Put
