Big Medicine from Six Nations is a series of reminiscences and essays by the late Ted Williams on the themes of ""medicine"" (physical/spiritual/psychic healing). Williams intertwines the lore and lifeways of his Tuscarora upbringing, illustrating the dynamic encounter of tradition and innovation at the heart of contemporary Haudenosaunee culture. At the same time, he writes with an irreverence, irony, and good humor unmistakably his own. Colored by his wry wit, ""Big Medicine from Six Nations"" amply fulfills the promise of its title. It offers a fascinating view not only of herbal medicine but also of prayers, omens, feasts, vision quests, sweat lodges, spirits, and the sacred teachings of the Great Law of the Great Peace. But readers will find that there is more to this book about the ""spiritual mechanics"" of humankind writ large.

Lupus shares Wise Betty's #MeNow movement to not only help those with Lupus find their path to ultimate healing and success in their health and well-being, but also to learn the best natural practices from those who have traveled the road ahead of them. Being diagnosed with Lupus can be terrifying. People are told they will get better if they do just what the doctors say. But what happens when they don't? What happens when the symptoms get worse? Wise Betty has lived with Lupus all her adult life. Along the way, she has learned of many natural remedies that have led her to full remission. Lupus details those remedies for readers with Lupus and other autoimmune diseases, while also inviting them into Wise's #MeNow community, a self-healing movement bringing together patients walking similar paths of self-healing. In Lupus, readers learn why it's called "the disease of a thousand faces," why most people with Lupus never heal their symptoms (and how to be different), what science and evidence-based medicine reveal the most successful Lupus patients do, and more! The journey to a better self is just beginning.
