Marlise Wabun Wind, M.S., is the author of twelve nonfiction books, and one Young Adult novel, with over two million copies in print worldwide in many languages. She has written about love, relationships, parenting, female energy, allopathic and complementary medicines, living in harmony with the earth, visionary people and experiences, community, and the environment. In the course of her career, Marlise has directed two non-profit educational organizations, founded a publishing company, edited a magazine, and worked as both a literary agent and a publishing consultant. She spent close to twenty years in the western United States, learning from, living and working with indigenous people from a variety of traditions. She has lectured at schools, conferences, and retreat centers, in the United States, Europe and Asia.
Marlise holds a master’s degree in journalism from Columbia University and a bachelor’s degree in international communications from George Washington University. She is a lifelong student of multicultural approaches to healing, issues concerning women and children, relationships, and comparative religions in their historical perspectives. She helped to establish and run a farm/conference center, and in doing so, learned about gardening, herbology, and other earth-centered topics. She also helped develop curricula for the conference center and acted as both a teacher and ceremonial leader.
While searching for an alternative to the surgical treatments for an arthritic ankle, Marlise was referred to Dr. Brian Shiple, from whom she learned about regenerative injection treatment (RIT) and underwent successful treatment which held off joint replacement surgery for a decade. That positive experience led her to collaborate with Dr. Shiple on REGENERATIVE HEALING FOR LIFE. She is an advocate for RIT, non-invasive techniques, and complementary treatments and increased honesty in allopathic medicine.
Marlise is currently collaborating on a wide spectrum of projects, including a young adult novel, a second spiritual adventure memoir, a simple guide to the Medicine Wheel, and several children’s books. She and her husband, a psychiatrist, have an adult daughter who is an artist, and works as a massage therapist and holistic healer.
