Indigenous Healing Traditions

Indigenous healing traditions encompass a range of cultural practices and beliefs used by Indigenous communities to promote wellness and address physical, emotional, and spiritual health. These traditions often involve rituals, storytelling, herbal medicine, ceremonies, and connection to nature and community. Rooted in a deep understanding of the land and spiritual world, they emphasize harmony, balance, and the importance of collective well-being. While traditional practices vary among different Indigenous groups, they are recognized as valuable, culturally significant approaches that complement or differ from Western medicine, often emphasizing holistic health and spiritual healing.
