WELL FOR CULTURE

Reestablishing our relationships with food is perhaps the most critical step toward reclaiming Indigenous health and wellbeing. Unfortunately, the food conversation can be overwhelmingly complex, but we’ve broken down some of the basics and shared our thoughts to help you start viewing food more like your ancestors did. Topics covered in this episode include the impact of colonialism on modern health; Indigenous values-based food choices; why we don’t say “diet,”; no more one-size-fits-all solutions; the mental/physical/spiritual/emotional components of food; mindful eating; what is ancestral food; and much, much more ! 

This is the first of many FOOD episodes to come.

In this episode, we break down an Indigenous perspective on the importance of MOVEMENT for total health. Contrary to popular belief, movement is not just PHYSICAL, it is also MENTAL, SPIRITUAL, AND EMOTIONAL. We need movement in our lives for preventative healthcare, for healing, and for functioning at our best capacities. Tune in to hear about the many, many ways that movement impacts our lives, and find out how to go about starting your fitness or movement practice.
