[Sust-mar] Mi'kmaw Herbal Healing July 4-6

[Meghan MacCulloch]

Mi'kmaw Herbal Healing July 4-6 at Tatamagouche Centre

 

Walk through the woods and fields gathering medicinal plants and making
preparations. Collecting and using plant medicine is part of Aboriginal
practice, teachings and history - using the medicines of the land, you will
have an opportunity to share in ceremony, culture and learn about
traditional Mi'kmaq practices. 

 

You will have an opportunity to create your own medicine pouch, make healing
tinctures, and follow the remedies that have been passed on through the
generations.

 

Leadership: Judy Googoo never visited a hospital while growing up in Baddeck
and Wagmatcook. All her medicines were prepared by her mother and
grandmother and passed on over time. Judy is an Elder who has been studying
and cataloguing medicines from this region infusing her own experiences and
practices with traditional knowledge.
