Follow the beauty way to generate happiness and good relationships, fulfill your life purpose, manifest peace and abundance, and renew the planet.
Dhyani Ywahoo’s powerful, prophetic, and compassionate voice returns in this new expanded edition of the book that’s sold over 90K copies.
This beloved book has resonated with thousands of spiritual explorers and other readers wishing to ground their activities in harmony and well-being. In this expanded edition, Dhyani Ywahoo continues to be a guiding source of wisdom for all who walk the Beauty Way. As the twenty-seventh generation to carry the Ywahoo lineage of the Eastern Tsalagi/Cherokee Nation, she shares the precious oral teachings of her people that remain timely, powerful, and accessible.
Weaving together Buddhist and Native American traditions, Voices of Our Ancestors offers practical ways of transforming obstacles into happiness and good relationships, fulfilling our life purpose, manifesting peace and abundance, and renewing the planet. The Tsalagi worldview teaches us to infuse each moment with the three fundamental principles of intention, compassion, and doing good. We have the opportunity to let go of fear and aggression and begin to live a life of enlightened consciousness, with tools like:
- Meditations;
- Healing rituals;
- Instructions for working with crystals; and
- Teachings on how to practice generosity and harmony.
Our journey is enriched by Dhyani Ywahoo’s new reflections on the expansion of Native American communities in the United States and how they have cooperated to bring Indigenous voices into larger conversations about conflict resolution, the climate crisis, and the need for inclusion of underrepresented groups and individuals. With a voice that is powerful, prophetic, and compassionate, Dhyani Ywahoo calls on us to become peacekeepers in our hearts and in the world.
