Books on personal development and indigenous wisdom
They say you teach best what you most need to learn? I can say that I needed to learn about betrayal and forgiveness, destructive relationships and healing the heart. I lost myself in an existence that didn’t suit me until I chose to honor my sacred fire. I gave my power to others for a long time before discovering my own power… In short, I intensely learned to love myself, to be loved and “to become love”.
So here’s what these books are about, in the hope that they may in turn help you in your own learning process.
Getting to know yourself better and reconciling with yourself

Indigenous wisdom of acceptance and forgiveness
THEY CALLED US SAVAGES
By Marie-Josée Tardif and Dominique Rankin
Finalist 2022
for the Governor General’s Literary Awards
A powerful and pacifying account of life, in an age marked by conflict, natural disasters, the denunciation of sexual abuse and the fight against racism.
T8aminik (Dominique) Rankin is one of Canada’s last hereditary chiefs. Born in the forests of northwestern Quebec, his training as a young medicine man began at the age of seven, culminating fifty years later with his induction into the Circle of Elders.
A survivor of the terrible Indian residential school era, T8aminik delivers a vibrant testimony to life, respect, forgiveness and healing.
A finalist in the prestigious Governor General’s Literary Awards in 2022, this book is now published in English by Vidacom Publishing. It was first published in French under the title On nous appelait les Sauvages, from Éditions le Jour.
It is also available in Italian under the title La profezia dei 7 fuochi, from Amrita Publishing.
