Les Quatre Voies de l’initiation chamanique, où Angeles Arrien, fils d’un berger pyrénéen émigré dans l’Idaho, dit comment il a développé en lui “le guerrier, le guérisseur, le visionnaire et le maître”, éditions Véga.
—Nouvelles Clés

A leading expert on native spirituality and shamanism reveals the four archetypal principles of the Native American medicine wheel and how they can lead us to a higher spirituality and a better world.

I found this book an interesting overview of ritual in indigenous cultures, especially as it relates to focusing attention on specific situations and aspects of life.

It's also intended to be used in a very "hands on" way: adapting the various ritual elements (drumming, chanting, singing, silent reflection, etc.) into your own practices as you find they best fit. Can't say I've gone that route much myself, but it seems pretty hands-on if that's what you're looking for.
