🌿 Honouring Indigenous Healing Partnerships 🌿
In early 2023, McDougall House began a meaningful journey toward deeper healing and understanding through our Indigenous Healing Partnerships. With the generous support of the Stollery Charitable Foundation, we were able to welcome three Indigenous Healing Partners, including a Knowledge Holder, for regular visits and workshops with our clients.
These sessions continue with more Indigenous Healing Partners and are deeply impactful, embracing ceremony, tradition, and connection to self, community, and the land. Clients describe learning how to listen to their ancestors, reconnect with their roots, and heal through cultural practices such as medicine bag making, ribbon skirt teachings, and the salt ceremony.
The feedback has been incredible. Ninety-six percent of participants found the workshops helpful, sharing that they have learned not only about healing but also about living in balance, strength, and growth.
