Sometime the bridges reach over chasms of pain, of fear, or of sadness. An the only way to make it across is to be supported by something that reminds you that you are not alone.All tribes , all religions, are sustained by myths - births, rebirths, faith in miracles. These connection to our way, are the predicates on which all morality is based. The are what sustains us as good people in hard times. Healing is what works.

His experiences force him to confront his old certainties about how people get sick and how they get well. This fascinating account interweaves autobiography with stories of the Native Americans who challenged his medical school assumptions about their methods.

While working as a family physician in a Native American hospital in the Southwest, Carl Hammerschlag was introduced to a patient named Santiago, a Pueblo priest and clan chief, who asked him where he had learned how to heal. Hammerschlag responded almost by rote, rattling off his medical education, internship, and certification.
The old man replied, “Do you know how to dance?”
To humor Santiago, Hammerschlag shuffled his feet at the priest’s bedside. Despite his condition, Santiago got up and demonstrated the proper steps. “You must be able to dance if you are to heal people,” he admonished the young doctor. “I can teach you my steps, but you will have to hear your own music.”
Hammerschlag synthesizes his Jewish heritage with his experiences with Native Americans to produce a practice open to all methods of healing. He discovers the wisdom of the Pueblo priest’s question to his Western doctor, “Do you know how to dance?”
