Boe Glasschild

Biography

My name is Boe Glasschild. I am a proud member of the great Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma.

In 2010 I founded Nature's Own Wisdom. This is my platform for sharing the Green Life Series. These educational workshops, lectures, and classes are designed for living in harmony, balance, and kinship with all denizens of our beautiful planet.

My spirit name is Bvshpolawa, which translates as Many Knives. I was given this name by an elder in Mississippi as I was told that a knife was a tool and that I would have many tools.

I feel that this moment is the most beautiful time to be alive. We are able to experience the transitions of Earth Mother and her four worlds in our daily lives. As everything changes and everything is changeable, it is up to each individual being to decide how to embrace the present moment.

My work experience encompasses over a decade of service as a Health Mentor. For the Genesee Health Systems in Michigan, I instructed group classes, nutrition, stress management, and one on one personal training for consumers diagnosed with severe mental illnesses and chronic health conditions. I was instrumental in creating the metrics for collecting consumer assessment data to secure UMF grants.

As a Fitness Instructor for the University Michigan Flint, I was the resident Pilates instructor as well as the lead water fitness instructor for the Health Alliance Plan weekly water fitness program. I designed the PHIT class program that had incredible attendance, as well as instructing spinning, U-Fit, and yoga classes.

As a Personal Trainer for the Hurley Health Fitness Center, I instructed HIIT classes, yoga, Pilates, and one on one personal training to athletes, youth, and clients completing rehabilitation.

My service as Corporate Wellness Instructor for the Hurley Medical Center allowed me to provide instruction in yoga, cardio, and Pilates to the administrative staff as well as physicians and nurses.

I have multiple years of experience hosting shamanic workshops as resident facilitator for the Meditation Self Healing Center in Michigan, Yoga for Life in Birmingham, and the G. N'Namdi Cultural Arts Center in Detroit. At these locations I developed the Dance Drum Dream workshops that became a monthly staple for years. I also taught shamanic classes, Amerindian spirituality, drum circles, and Khoemmi singing.

Smashwords Interview

All belief systems are equally valid and equally arbitrary. How can you embrace spirituality?
Spirituality is a framework for achieving spiritual balance. Other perspectives are the same as well. There is no duality of better-than or less-than, this is relative to the individual. The spirit without a fixed identity is capable of being closer to the source than those with fixed definitions. In true spiritual cosmology there is no right/wrong duality to do battle with, as both of these assumptions are arbitrary and more relative than one can imagine. The issues of right versus wrong has the tendency to create an unhealthy dynamic of right and rescue- I am right, you are wrong, so I will rescue you. The focus of spirituality is to be most appropriate for the moment, responding to the events instead of reacting.
Spirituality is not about following a rote method but becoming attuned to discovering what works for whom. What does this mean?
This means that for the awakened spirit, the pathway becomes the teacher. We are all mixtures of wisdom and foolishness, but in different percentages. The spiritual pathway merges the seeking spirit with the greatest mysteries; the consciousness becomes the connection to Great Mystery. When this merger happens, the limitations cease and abundance flows. Those of seeking spirit see Great Spirit in all and serves Great Spirit in all. When the seeker does become attuned to using the body’s equipment, the dance of life has the ability to modulate between roles of the warrior and the healer, hard power and soft power. The warrior works from the perspectives of black and white to get things done, the healer encompasses the shades between these polarities to get things done as well. Both are paths of protocol.
