Owl Medicine

About the Book

Owl Medicine is a narrative non-fiction adventure of self-discovery, inter-personal struggle, and intrigue.  The story opens with the author’s discovery of a dead owl swinging upside down from a tree.  Believing her discovery to be a message that shouldn’t be ignored, she seeks insight from a clairvoyant metaphysical ’teacher’ with whom she, her husband Karl, and a small group of friends have been studying.  The teacher responds with surprisingly little insight and the author strikes out on her own to discover the message of the owl.

Owl Medicine is unique because it introduces readers to valuable tools (Runes/Medicine Cards/dream exploration) for spiritual growth, while indulging the simple joy of getting lost in a good story.

The single most unique feature of Owl Medicine, however, is its emphasis on the dynamics of Lisa and Karl’s spiritual growth as a couple and the crucial role that communication plays in their success.  Owl Medicine is not so much a "how-to" book as it is a "See, this-really-can-be-lived!" affirmation.
