There's a few sites on this page link that do not seem quite right:
http://www.healing-arts.org/nativelinks.htm
Some look a little 'odd' to say the least...just wondering if anyone has had any dealings with these folks or if there's any thought's on these sites.
With respect,
Tsisqua

few are ok, but yeaah, some are not good. I see on there Lewis Mehl-Madrona, I think there is a link here. Also Manataka. Oh, and Robin Youngblood is making money selling books, tapes and ceremonies. I think there is a thread on Rainbow Eagle. But others like the IEN are legit. A mis of good and bad.
A friend, who has traveled with many spiritual people as a helper, NOT to learn ceremony, but because they need help, was told at a nuage store that she needed to read Youngbloods latest medicine wheel how to be "spirichual" book so she could be more "Spiritual". We both had a good laugh on that. She knows what spirituality is and it doesn't come from a book! LOL!

The crafts and environmental sites seem fine, but I would not trust a single one of the sites they describe as "healers" when in fact they are all exploiters, some of them quite dangerous people like H Storm and the late Robert Franzone.
Mehl Madrona, the owner of Healing-Arts.org, is an anthro at University of Arizona that the NDN community can't stand. He tried to sell sweats a few years ago, and also was fired from a hospital position and wound up with a warning about him on Quackwatch. Most of what he does is trying to sell the legitimacy of exploiters to the academic community. I honestly don't know whether he is just very incompetent and doesn't realize everyone he promotes is a fraud, or just does not care.

There is a thread about Lewis Mehl-Madrona, AKA Louis Mehl Madrona:
