In the book of poetry and prose, Fisher-Odjig hopes to touch the hearts of those who may not understand the long term affects of trauma. Medication and therapy are among the treatments for depression as the pains instilled by generations of struggle persist. The author shares in this anthology her belief that the best medicine is listening first to one's own heart, secondly, that no one is alone, and that it is possible to escape the nightmares associated with trauma. Throughout the engrossing pages, readers will experience poems that show many emotions and feelings brought about by those fears and nurtured by the "Seven Grandfathers" as applied toward a better understanding of a balanced value system within.

With breathtaking art and poignant flow of words, My Healing Journey: A Walk in Two Worlds will introduce readers to an uplifting world where the solutions to all personal and social dilemmas are within reach.

Fisher-Odjig comments,"Rivers flow for a reason; bridges are built for a cause. The river flows as directed by nature and her many lines of a ravaged face are evident concerning her structure and environment. We have the choice as to whether we want to go with the flow or build that bridge toward a cause that allows us the control of our own destination. In this book of poetry and pros I hope to touch the hearts of those who may not understand the long term affects of trauma. There are many treatments for depression, drugs, therapy and whatever else helps to dull those pains of the voices long ago instilled by generations of struggle. I feel that the best medicine is to listen and hear that we are not alone and we can live outside our nightmares within. Theses poems will show the many emotions and feelings brought about by those fears and nurtured by the 'Seven Grandfathers' as applied toward a better understanding of a balanced value system within. The holistic view of mind, body heart and spirit. The yearning to be accepted and understood as a resilient and strong person like that of the buffalo. I have a cause and that being to reach out and teach through my pain, through a humbling that is clear to acknowledge 'I am no different from you and you from me' therefore we are the same."
