Wonderful, inspiring, and IMPORTANT!

This is a lovely book, with in depth looks at some very formidable and interesting ladies! I had the pleasure (blessing, really) of meeting Agnes Baker-Pilgrim and Flordemayo this month, and they are truly awe inspiring. I can only imagine all 13 of them together! The book is well written, inspiring (especially to women), and carries an important message. The traditional ways are slipping away from the majority of the people on Mother Earth, and materialism is taking hold. People who hold spirituality and a connection to Mother Earth sacred are becoming rare jewels. The Grandmothers encourage each of us to stop and listen to the world, to open our eyes and SEE rather than just look. Don't just speak... walk your talk, as Grandmother Agnes would say!

Take an Intimate Journey of Light and Love

Thank you Carol for the gift of this book.It not only blessed me with timeless and beautiful messages I will treasure,but also took my heart and mind on a quest to remember all the ancient prophecies, the sacred path of traditional healing, and a window to the sacred love that is there for all of us. I pray that you will be moved as I am to read this book and walk the path to wisdom and balance.

URGENT BOOK FOR OUR TIMES

Carol Schaefer's GRANDMOTHERS COUNSEL THE WORLD is a timely book. These indigenous grandmothers have a visionary message of healing for our Earth Mother, and it's time we listen to these holy women and walk in balance again. I urge everyone to read this excellent book, and then read it again!

A Grandmother & Healthcare Professional

The Grandmothers introduce themselves to us and at the same time begin to share some of their stories with us. This is a book I want to share with my grandchildren so they will always remember the beauty of the Earth!!I love it when Grandmother Agnes says that the most important journey we can make today is that 14 inches from the head to the heart!!
