After her first week teaching at a boarding school on the Navajo Reservation near Canyon de Chelly, young Erica Elliott almost leaves in despair, unable to communicate with the children or understand cultural cues. But once she starts learning the Navajo language, the people begin to trust her, taking her into their homes and ceremonies. As she is drawn deeper into Navajo life, Erica has a series of profound experiences with the people, animals, and spirits of Canyon de Chelly. Fulfilling a Navajo grandmother’s prophecy, she returns years later as a medical doctor.

The essence of Medicine!
Revisado: 12-03-20
This extraordinary book is, in my vision, about the essence of the invisible healing power of medicine. At least what medicine should be. Erica takes us in epic journey where she courageously shares her inside and outside experiences of being.
Erica Elliott drives us through a path that doesn’t looks like she is saying anything about medicine... she is saying everything about it!
I intended to just take a brief look and leave it on hold, as I have many books to read before this one... no way I could stop!
The book is also about the beauty of life, the beauty itself, no matter the struggles you are facing.
It remembered me some wisdom from Joseph Campbell.
The main gift of this book is that is narrated by the author. You feel much more beyond the words.
I’m looking forward to read the next.
