The author’s training is comprised of Western approaches as well as training with Native healers and community. Many of the clinical strategies delineated in this book are an amalgamation of these teachings and can be traced to the teachings of his Root Teacher, Tarrence. Therefore, this book is the clinical application of the ideas described in his previous book, Buddha in Redface, which is a narrative of Duran’s experiences with his teacher.
