Authors: Cynthia Bend & Tayja Wiger

ISBN: 9780875420349

Condition: Used — Vintage 1987 Llewellyn, Out-of-Print

A scarce copy of the out-of-print spiritual autobiography and instructional guide by Cynthia Bend and Tayja Wiger. Published in 1987 by Llewellyn Publications, this moving text details the true life story and spiritual awakening of Tayja Wiger — chronicling her journey overcoming a traumatic childhood through intensive training under traditional Native American medicine teachers to become a modern urban shaman. The book serves as both an inspiring biographical document and a practical guide for readers seeking to explore core shamanic techniques, visionary paths, and deep subconscious healing.

As a highly collectible first-generation late-1980s Llewellyn paperback, this title has been out of print for decades and is increasingly difficult to secure on the secondhand market — an excellent addition for collectors of vintage occult history, alternative psychology, and shamanic lore.
