We stand on a precipice, the future unknown. But Indigenous people carry forward the values that humans need to survive and thrive. In \u003cem\u003eJourney to Eloheh\u003c\/em\u003e, Randy and Edith Woodley help readers transform their worldviews and lifestyles by learning the ten values of the Harmony Way. These ten values, held in common across at least forty-five Indigenous tribes and nations, can lead us toward true well-being: harmony, respect, accountability, history, humor, authenticity, equality, friendship, generosity, and balance. By learning, converting to, and cultivating everyday practices of Eloheh--a Cherokee word meaning harmony and peace--we have a chance at building well-being and a sustainable culture.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn this riveting account of their own journeys toward deepening their indigeneity and embodying harmony, Edith, an activist-farmer, and Randy, a scholar, author, teacher, and wisdom-keeper, help readers learn the lifeways of the Harmony Way. The journey to Eloheh holds promise for all of us, Indigenous or not.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWe know the Western worldview is at odds with a sustainable Earth, a just common life, and personal well-being. Together we can convert to another way of living--one that recognizes the Earth as sacred, sees all creation as related, and offers ancestral values as the way forward to a shared future.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Randy Woodley, Edith Woodley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1506496970\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781506496979\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Broadleaf Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/08\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Randy Woodley","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44860317499647,"sku":"9781506496979","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_70ef2ecb-a56f-4ada-b9cc-d2cb66b69ef6.jpg?v=1709135812","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/journey-to-eloheh-randy-woodley-9781506496979","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
