....the medicine man in the path of Surrender (islam) will tell you to increase Love in your relations... to seek forgiveness... to do good deeds... to walk light... accumulate little and give lots...
...then you may ask them about your health issue... the migraines... how its been happening for 20 years... the medicine man will use the above as a basis for questions - what are all the barriers within you that is keeping you from Love?...that has kept you?... this is what's keeping you from deep full breaths... this is what's causing obstructions in your vessels... that is causing pain...
...you may wonder if diet and lifestyle are a part of it... of course, the medicine man will say... but diet and lifestyle are outcomes of Love... of where you fall in relation to it... but what if i was abused/violated/traumatized... have you let that experience keep you from Loving?... the medicine man will ask...
...and of course... in the traditional way... which the majority of teh worlds village women embody... the medicine is in the food, the village, the culture of the sacred...
...without a degree... without ever stepping into a school... you can know to eat right/well, plant foods and medicines... use them to help you and others... you can know the essentiality of being in togetherness... in community... in being interdependent... in bowing your head down and without a word... dissipating...
