Now in paperback! US bestselling author of Mother Earth Spirituality returns with a call for a spiritual awakening to create a new global culture. Beginning with the ways of the Lakota Sioux and branching outward, Sioux tribal leader Ed McGaa, known as Eagle Man, shows the error of using animals and the natural world as a whole for economic and political gain. He then offers everyday lessons and values gleaned from Nature that endure for all times and people. In this call for spiritual awakening, McGaa explains how we can create a new global culture based not on dominance over nature for economic and political gain, but on values that endure for all times and all people. Nature's Way explores Native American belief systems, oppression of Native Americans by the dominant society, the desacralisation of Nature, and the complicity of institutional religion. Taking on religion, politics, and culture, McGaa provides a template for readers – a path designed by Nature that anyone can follow. Using the lessons of eagle, bear, lion, wolf, orca, owl, tiger, buffalo, rat, deer – even the cottonwood tree, Nature's Way teaches all of us how we can overcome religious intolerance, treat women and men equally, preserve our environment, and live in peace.

Decades of research and discussion have shown that the human population growth and our increased consumption of natural resources cannot continue – there are limits to growth. This volume demonstrates how we might modify and revise our economic systems using nature as a model. The book describes how nature uses three growth forms: biomass, information, and networks, resulting in improved overall ecosystem functioning and co-development. As biomass growth is limited by available resources, nature uses the two other growth forms to achieve higher resource use efficiency. Through a universal application of the three ‘R’s: reduce, reuse, and recycle, nature thus shows us a way forward towards better solutions. However, our current approach, dominated by short-term economic thinking, inhibits full utilization of the three ‘R’s and other successful approaches from nature. Building on ecological principles, the authors present a global model and futures scenario analyses which show that implementation of the proposed changes will lead to a win-win situation. In other words, we can learn from nature how to develop a society that can flourish within the limits to growth with better conditions for prosperity and well-being.

The Simple and Natural Way offers a practical and simple guide to perfect weight, radiant health, and, eventually, a transformed life. The book is about something that most of us know in theory but very few practice; it focuses on Fletcherism, in theory and in practice. The theory is supported by the work of the American health guru Horace Fletcher (18491919), including various experiments of strength and endurance conducted on him and several Fletcherites before and after him. The practice is based on my own experience and results with Fletcherism. This book is for all those who are struggling with weight issuesthe underweights and the overweights. Fletcherism works like magic. On a comparative analysis, this practice is easier to adopt than any of the diet or exercise routines. This raises its acceptance quotient even with hard core foodies. It is for all those who are struggling with any health issue, whether directly or indirectly connected with incorrect eating and nutrition, and for all those who wish to live life to fullest possible physical potential in terms of their strength, endurance and physical health. This guide points out all the massive and unbelievable benefits of Fletcherising, which are not just confined to your body but also reach your mind. The practice can help quit lifelong addictions, cravings, and even unnatural walking, breathing and sleeping habits. It can transform your lifeeven if you dont believe it can! When you align even one part of your life to natures ways (through Fletcherism), every other aspect follows harmoniously. Fletcherism has changed author Shailaja Kedaris life in ways she couldnt have imagined. With the help of this book, you can experience the same or even more miraculous changes in your life.
