Ancestral recovery work points in the direction of healing ruptures in the transmission of intergenerational wisdom. These ruptures are the outcome of displacement and the forced or voluntary renunciation of identity and fidelity to languages and homelands severing hundreds or thousands of years of place-based, eco-centric relationship… those things which define Indignity.

EcoSomatics engenders the recovery of place-based and eco-centric practices which restore relationship between our sacred human bodies and the sacred body of the Earth. Relationships and specifically reciprocal relationships are explored with self, other,, and the more-than-human world.

We are in a process of liberation from thousands of years of violence and the re-writing of history with the erasure of stories of migration, violence and assimilation. As we take the next step collectively to untangle ourselves from the subsequent exploitative system of dominators and dominated, we must transform our system of education, successfully re-incorporating the methodologies of Indigenous, body and ecocentric wisdom that were previously dismissed by institutions designed and led by the victors of colonization.
