When we began to excavate these memories, many times we will find our deepest purpose and meaning for living through honoring the ancestors. As we uncover and discover the sacred stories of our ancestors, we can begin to reclaim our own ancient indigenous wisdom. In this reclamation, we can bring forth our sacred soul medicine to contribute to the well-being of ourselves, our families, and our community and to bless the world at large.
