The Seven Paths: Changing One's Way of Walking in the World

Praise for The Seven Paths: Changing One's Way of Walking in the World

“There is much to learn from any person who has lived his life trying to heed the wisdom he has gathered from the lingering voices of his ancestors—especially in an age, like our own, when those voices have been spurned. Ezekiel Sanchez (Good Buffalo Eagle), cofounder of ANASAZI Foundation, is such a person. He has used the ancient, tested wisdom of his people to touch the souls of thousands of once- troubled young people and their families and show them the way to reunion and peace. Such a person also is his literary collaborator, Jim Ferrell. In The Seven Paths, they have distilled their unique and luminous insight. Reading this book receptively, you will likely catch yourself already forward walking in your heart and awakening to the light.”
—C. Terry Warner, PhD, founder, The Arbinger Institute

“This book is profound! The principle of ‘We’ is the secret to every success on and off the field.”
—Steve Young, NFL Hall of Fame quarterback and ESPN commentator

“Through the story of the Seven Paths, my daughter realized how she, too, had walked backward, away from her family. This profound discovery saved my daughter’s life, which in turn saved our entire family. It gave her a solid foundation to navigate through her very difficult teenage years...it gave our lost child new feet to find her way—her path to becoming a loving, successful young adult with truly a heart at peace.”
—Elaine Taylor, President, The Taylor Family Foundation

“Speaking with the wisdom of ancient ones, this guide to life’s chal- lenging journey is brilliantly accessible and spiritually transforming.”
—Richard Ferre, MD, adolescent and adult psychiatrist

“In the universal moments of feeling stuck or lost, the Seven Paths are simple and profound truths that provide not only solace but genuine ways to change your heart.”
—Courtney Merrill, LMFT, marriage and family therapist and educational consultant

“ANASAZI Foundation’s Seven Paths illustrates an oft-forgotten truth that it is not our experiences that determine the quality of our lives but who we are morally when we pass through those experiences. To walk in the light instead of in darkness means we see our experiences truthfully and learn and grow. When we betray the light within us, we walk in darkness and we find our experiences burdensome. This book is an invitation to all to live truthfully and distinguish toxic from nourishing ways of being in the world.”
—Terrance D. Olson, PhD, Ernest Osborne award winner in Family Life Education

“The Seven Paths is truly a blessing. I recommend it to anyone in need of healing, wisdom, power, and goodness.”

“It is a privilege to recommend The Seven Paths. ANASAZI is one of the best programs for helping young people and adults make major changes in their lives, and I am thrilled this book will make the phi- losophy and wisdom its program is based on accessible to a larger audience.”
—Ralph H. Earle, MDiv, PhD, founder and President, Psychological Counseling Services, Ltd.
