This week we are continuing our deep dive into the wonderful book Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge, and the Teaching of Plants by Robin Wall Kimmerer. To guide our discussion we are using the four questions set out by Casper ter Kuile in is book The Power of Ritual.
In this episode we talk about:
Gifts! We all love gifts, especially those that come from the heart.
How gratitude and art are gifts everyone can give everyday.
The power of reciprocity to heal grief.
How all humans are nurturers (yes even manly men!).
Books we referenced:
Emergent Strategy by adrienne marie brown
The Gift by Lewis Hyde
Thank you so much for listening! Next week we will deep dive into Part 4: Braiding Sweetgrass.
Until then, may the forest be with you.
