About the author
Shirley Laboucane writes on Indigenous and Celtic-influenced spiritual practice, publishing with Dodona Books and Moon Books. Healing Divination (2013) presents psychic-development methods drawn from the author's own native spirituality, covering work with herbs and plants and the use of totems and power animals in relation to clairsentience, clairvoyance, and clairaudience. Walking the Path — The Cree to the Celtic (2012) sets out ceremonies intended to bring people together through dance, music, prayer, and feasting, framed as accessible to readers regardless of religious background. Both books present ritual and ceremony as communal practices rather than esoteric secrets reserved for initiates, and both draw on Cree tradition in combination with other influences. Laboucane's work is aimed at readers seeking practical, ceremony-based approaches to spirituality grounded in a specific Indigenous perspective rather than general New Age instruction.
