THE SCIENCE OF THE SACRED: BRIDGING GLOBAL INDIGENOUS MEDICINE SYSTEMS AND MODERN SCIENTIFIC PRINCIPLES

Book ID/图书代码： 09802019C00018

English Summary/英文概要： Indigenous naturopathic doctor Nicole Redvers pairs evidence-based research with traditional healing modalities, addressing modern health problems and medical processes

Modern medical science has finally caught up to what traditional healing systems have known for centuries. Many traditional healing techniques and medicines are often assumed to be archaic, outdated, or unscientific compared to modern Western medicine. Nicole Redvers, a naturopathic physician and member of the Deninu K’ue First Nation, analyzes modern Western medical practices using evidence-informed Indigenous healing practices and traditions from around the world--from sweat lodges and fermented foods to Ayurvedic doshas and meditation. Organized around various sciences, such as physics, genetics, and microbiology, the book explains the connection between traditional medicine and current research around epigenetics and quantum physics, for example, and includes over 600 citations. Redvers, who has traveled and worked with Indigenous groups around the world, shares the knowledge and teachings of health and wellness that have been passed down through the generations, tying this knowledge with current scientific advances. Knowing that the science backs up the traditional practice allows us to have earlier and more specific interventions that integrate age-old techniques with the advances in modern medicine and technology.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 本土自然疗法医生尼科尔·雷德弗斯将循证研究与传统的治疗模式相结合，解决了现代健康和医疗过程中的问题。

现代医学终于赶上了传统治疗系统几个世纪前的水平。与现代西医相比，许多传统的治疗技术和药物常常被认为是过时的、不科学的。自然疗法医师、迪雷努第一民族的的成员尼科尔·雷德弗斯分析了现代西方医学实践，使用的是有证据支持的本土治疗方法和来自世界各地的传统——从汗屋和发酵食品到阿育吠陀和冥想。

这本书以物理学、遗传学和微生物学等各种科学为基础，解释了传统医学与当前表观遗传学和量子物理学研究之间的联系，并引用了600多篇文章。雷德弗斯曾与世界各地的土著群体一起旅行和工作，他分享了世代相传的健康知识和教导，并将这些知识与当前的科学进步联系起来。知道科学支持传统做法，使我们能够更早、更具体地采取干预措施，将古老的技术与现代医学和技术的进步结合起来。（WYL）

Awards/获奖情况：“雷德弗斯阐明了传统和传统治疗实践的共同基础。每一章都确定并分析了不同的文化假设，这些文化假设可以使治疗实践彼此分离，而作者知识的深度让我们看到这些不同的实践如何扎根于身体的智慧。这是对整体治疗的呼吁，它整合了多种传统来治疗心灵、身体、情感和精神。”——罗宾·沃尔·基默尔博士，《编织甜草》的作者

“利用自己独特的成长经历和智慧收到她的溪谷长老的加拿大北部和教训目睹疾病、贫困、绝望,和环境退化的各个部分。雷德弗斯提供了独特的洞察力,只有“第一民族”人,练习结合医学医生可以带来。《神圣的科学》是指向治疗中急需的反叛的指南针。自我的革命开始了!”——艾伦·洛根，《你的大脑关于自然的一切》一书的合著者

“尼科尔·雷德弗斯巧妙地将她的文化根源和其他土著文化的故事结合在一起，以一种证据充分的方式来看待医学、我们星球的健康，以及人类作为个人和社会的健康。她提出的问题和解决方案值得探索，并会让你思考很长时间后，完成这是她的第一个作品。”——保罗·桑德斯博士

“这是一本关于个人和整个星球的治疗的强大而勇敢的书。它直接指向我们所有问题的核心，也就是我们解决问题的途径。它利用现代科学和第一民族长者的古老智慧，发出了改变的响亮呼吁，小心地平衡合理的实践与实现这些目标所需的灵感和激情。在这个人类和地球健康的剧变时代，我们需要一个地震般的转变——我们可能重新发现我们的目的，我们的根和我们的自我意识，所有的一切都源于此。雷德弗斯博士大胆地把我们带到了这一前沿，并向我们展示了我们可以在哪里跨过门槛，进入一个健康的新时代。”——苏珊·普雷斯科特，医学博士，是西澳大利亚大学的儿科医生和免疫学家，也是体内行星健康的主席

“Redvers illuminates the common ground that underlies both traditional and conventional healing practices. Each chapter identifies and analyzes the different cultural assumptions that can keep healing practices separate from one another, while the depth of the author’s knowledge allows us to see the ways in which these different practices can be rooted in the wisdom of the body. A call for the holistic healing that integrates multiple traditions for healing of mind, body, emotion, and spirit.” —Robin Wall Kimmerer, PhD, author of Braiding Sweetgrass

“Drawing on her own unique upbringing and total lived experience—melding wisdom received from her Dene elders of Northern Canada and lessons learned from witnessing illness, poverty, despair, and environmental degradation in various parts of the world—Redvers provides unique insight that only a First Nations person and practicing integrative medicine doctor can bring. The Science of the Sacred is a compass pointing toward a much-needed rebellion in healing. The revolution of the self begins!” —Alan C. Logan, coauthor of Your Brain on Nature

“Nicole Redvers neatly ties together her cultural Dene roots and stories from other Indigenous cultures in an evidence-informed manner to look at medicine, the health of our planet, and the health of humans as individuals and societies. She poses questions and solutions that deserve exploration and will keep you thinking long after finishing this, her first work.”—Paul Saunders, PhD, ND

DR. NICOLE REDVERS is the first licensed practicing naturopathic doctor in North America who is Dene (a member of the Deninu K’ue First Nation Band). After growing up in Canada’s isolated north, she pursued an advanced Western medical education in the south and has had the privilege of developing relationships with strong elders and medicine people. She has traveled the globe, studying traditional medicine systems in various countries and working with Indigenous patients, helping to bridge the gap between traditional and modern medical systems. In addition, Redvers developed Northern Canada’s only integrative medicine clinic from the ground up. She also co-founded and chairs a non-profit group, the Arctic Indigenous Wellness Foundation (AIWF), whose purpose is to revitalize traditional wellness services in the Canadian north and to focus on the preservation of Traditional Medicines. Her foundation was awarded one million dollars as a Laureate of the 2017 Arctic Inspiration Prize to work with homeless people and those most at risk in the northern part of Canada.
