"""A Book of Balance is a conversation that speaks to heart and mind simultaneously. It reminds us that one of the most important forms of activism is to be in heart-based conversations with other people."" — M. Amos Clifford, author of Your Guide to Forest Bathing ""In A Book of Balance Buchholz eloquently quotes and interprets the Kogi’s unique ways of manifesting the worldview that guided us relatively harmoniously for most of human history. From revealing the absurdity of arguing to emphasizing the importance of Zhigoneshi- the belief that a healthy world is based on symbiosis and mutualism- he reminds us that honoring the Laws of Nature is a prerequisite for a world in balance."" — Four Arrows (Wahinkpe Topa), author of Point of Departure and Restoring the Kinship Worldview.  “A Book of Balance provides essential natural wisdom from the past to help us live more fully in the present so we can save our planet’s future. These indigenous teachings make for a powerful read.” — Patrick McDonnell, creator of Heart to Heart with the Dalai Lama “Reading A Book of Balance is a call to action and a precious gift. Through its queries, we come close to engaging in conversation with Kogi wisdom holders concerning Earth-wise living, while learning to be better stewards of our planet. Stimulating and moving at once, A Book of Balance take us on a magical journey that culminates with a transformative message.” — Stephanie Rose Bird, spiritual healer and author of Sticks, Stones, Roots & Bones and Motherland Herbal “A Book of Balance should be read by every architect, engineer, manager, leader, and anyone with authority in the creation of our modern world. With a focus on Life and the balance that can exist between all living things, the stories presented are heartfelt and thoughtful. The Kogi refer to us as younger brothers and sisters and I believe, like older siblings, they are looking out for us. Everyone can benefit from this book and the ancient wisdom it offers."" —  Marcus Bridgewater, author of How to Grow"
