Sitting in Pictures: Vision Meditations for Addiction Recovery

Sitting in Pictures, the practice of visualizing a harmonious reality and allowing that reality to manifest, is a Hopi tradition, but the custom is not confined to the Hopi peoples alone.
Interactive meditation that aligns us to our Higher Power and the Mother Earth has been practiced by various peoples throughout the history of the world. Indeed, the vision quest of Native Americans may be a form of Sitting In Pictures, the Dream-time of the Aborigines, shamanic journeying, and even so-called modern psychology s creative visualization is, no doubt, a similar endeavor.
The book, Sitting in Pictures contains a daily meditation format (similar to Day By Day) for drug addicts and alcoholics with an extraordinary difference. There are very few words! Each page consists of a title; a brief recovery principle, then an image which becomes the meditation to sit in. The page concludes with a passage, quote, or brief parable from an authoritative indigenous person or tribe.
It is easier for indigenous, native, tribal, and spiritual seekers to grasp the healing message of a meditation when approaching it by creating a door to the reality we heal in. This doorway or gateway is the daily sacred drawing from Sitting in Pictures.
These Vision Meditations include the Wisdom of the Elders from:

African Tribal Sayings
South American Indigenous Peoples
Wisdom of the Ancients

Traditional meditation books for healing and growth have been based on intellectual premises--wise words that stir the soul, but originate from the head. This meditation book will humbly attempt to draw healing, wisdom and guidance from other realities--for those of us who don't live so much in the intellect but dwell in the soul of our planet.
This is one of the LOWEST PRICED recovery meditation books available that carries the 12 Step spiritual messages.
