Got a request. A white former advertising executive who added Lakota to her name, runs sweats mixed with goddess beliefs.

White Tail Center was founded by Marion Wanagi Wi in 1987 and is devoted to realizing some of the insights that flow from the many spiritual and wellness related specialties offered.
The center is located on ten acres of private woodlands that overlook a glacial lake.
After an eleven year teaching career and a ten year advertising directorship in NYC, Marion Wanagi Wi has come to realize her true passions – a nature based spiritual life and teaching.
She has poured water in the traditional Lakota Inipi - Sweat Lodge Ceremony since the center was founded
and continues to do so today.
Marion Wanagi Wi is a certified Massage Therapist and instructor, a counselor, Reiki Master Teacher, Wise Woman Herbalist, Shamanic Healer – Practitioner, Natural Nutrition consultant, and Sundancer in the Lakota tradition.
She has also teamed with Amazon Herb Company to save the Rainforest and to promote natural health through education and the use of these extraordinary nutrients.

they know nothing about my peoples way of life
we don't pay to pray

[Autumn]

The workshop listings appear to be dated (although she may still be doing them).  She seems to be focusing most of her energies now on selling art and jewelry. 

Spirited Gifts...when its time for a change from the ordinary.

Welcome to Spirited Gifts. I hope that you enjoy viewing my original carvings and art. I carve bone, naturally shed deer and elk antlers, wood, and glass -- all resulting in a warm depiction of the subject. I am currently making molds of my original carvings and casting them in earthenware and porcelain. The fine details of my original bone and antler pendants are now available at a very affordable price.

I also make art and jewelry from feathers and anything I find in nature. All the feathers that I use are steamed and sanitized.
Every item is original, one of a kind, and signed. Although I repeat designs, each carving is done individually. When I am asked to create a special piece, there is usually a wonderful story connected to it. I really enjoy co-creating that special gift.

Please convo me for international shipping costs.
Come back soon. I frequently add new items.
