Charlotte Weiland (aka Granny Earth), a Clayton College of Natural Health MS in Natural Health and ND Graduate Publishes a New Book, The Journey IN-Triad of Transformation

Friday, November 30th, 2007

From Granny Earth’s Web site:

Body, mind and spirit- it’s all one, you know. And you can’t have one without the other- at least not here, on this Earth Plane- this time around. YES - they are all one. They can-not be separated. You cannot separate the spirit (energy) from the body (physical) from the mind (physic). AND- they can all work together for total health!

Read that again: They can all work together for total health.

If we simply learn what ancient healers knew- Great Spirit is Nature- is us- is ALL. Indigenous people, like the American Indians knew this too. The Divine Wisdom of Nature continues to show us the path to healing ourselves- if only we learn how to listen.

AND-The body is always talking to us!

We can learn to listen. We can ALLOW the Wisdom of the body to heal us.

Learn more about this amazing, simple, little book, The Journey IN-Triad of Transformation.
