Grounded Magic

Indigenous Magic for Turbulent Times,

In Part 2 of our discussion with Christin Dennis, he explains the core principles, rituals, and practices that help keep him aligned with the Creator. He shows us how he lives his day-to-day life, conversing with Spirit, praying in unexpected ways, and meeting his challenges with courage. You’ll relish his surprising stories, and the universal wisdom he offers for living better every day.

Christin Dennis is a member of the Aamjiwnaang First Nation in Southern Ontario, Canada. His traditional name is Gzhiiaqwat (She u quot), which translates to Fast-Moving Cloud. He is an artist and a musician. He is also a survivor of the Sixties Scoop, in which indigenous children were forcefully taken away from their families and communities and adopted into predominantly Christian, Caucasian homes.

Christin’s art reflects on the current era in Indigenous culture, focusing on the sweat lodge and carrying the traditions of old into the contemporary world. He tells the stories of indigenous heritage and the importance of preserving traditional values.

For Christin, art is a means of expressing his passionate interconnection with "the spirit of all that exists." A spiritual healer as well as an artist, he stresses the importance of traditional teachings and spiritual growth. As such, he has facilitated sweat lodges for many years. Christin emphasizes that awareness of self and one's place in the world is important for members of both Native and non-Native cultures. Perhaps paradoxically, he uses cutting edge technology to make a statement about the distinctive place of ancient Indigenous cultures in a complex, contemporary, multicultural world.

By understanding and embracing the teachings of the ancestral past, Christin seeks to preserve a way of life, document its core value, and help build a vision for our future.

Bored by the idea of a routine? Why not try creating a *rhythm* instead? Holly Holt explains how to replace the rigidity of discipline with the gentle consistency of devotion: a more compassionate way of creating sustainable patterns based on your internal wisdom.

Holly Holt is a writer and depth facilitator who offers experiences that facilitate self-trust for sensitive, creative women who have struggled to find a place in this noisy, demanding world. Her experiences as a singer/songwriter, yoga teacher, and student of personality theory inspired her to start leading immersive writing circles for women in 2012. Most recently, she released The Rhythmic Ritual, a self-paced embodied journaling practice that can be done every day, and launched the Story Tending Immersion, an intimate group coaching circle. She's excited for her next release, My Messy Memoir, in the fall. When she’s not leading women to the waters of their own creativity, you’ll find her writing, walking, rescuing cats, or driving the backroads without a map.
