In This Episode:

This week we talk about the Medicine Wheel and do a run through of the different healing practices used my indigenous communities around North America. There are over 2,000 tribes in North America alone although only around 500 are formally recognized. 

We discuss life's seasons, totem animals and compare it to the elements in Traditional Chinese Medicine and Ayurvedic principles. 

Kalyna discusses how we age into each season gracefully and the idea that we might be able to find more reverence and understanding for each season in our lives. Native American medicinal practices focus on creating harmony in the body, mind and spirit. People are meant to take responsibility for their health via their thoughts and actions. 

We look at some key inventions by Native American tribes in the medicine space that are used today by Western medicine. This healing modality incorporates nature's elements and plants, shaman and medicine healers, smudging and ceremonies, dance, and more.
