I recently led an e-mail retreat using "A Retreat With Black Elk" as our guide. It was refreshing in both content and spiritual benefits. The author led us to find our own path on The Good Red Road using the life, inspiration, dreams, example and words of the great holy man of the Oglala Sioux - Black Elk.
