WISDOM LESSONS, by Ojibwe Great-grandmother Mary Lyons, is the culmination of a lifetime steeped in indigenous spiritual traditions, as well as the proverbial school of hard knocks. At once plainspoken and lyrical, Grandmother Mary offers invaluable lessons for anyone interested in living in alignment with their higher self. A spiritual advisor, storyteller and wisdom keeper, she travels and teaches internationally, with a focus on healing children, families and communities from the negative effects of alcohol and drug addiction. After her own recovery, guided by her ancestors, she has dedicated her life to helping others, fostering and adopting many children with family problems, disabilities and fetal alcohol syndrome.
