Original Peoples Teachings
Belief, Balance, and Community Well-Being
This series explores how Original Peoples teachings guide personal growth, decision-making, and community well-being. Through oral teachings, storytelling, and circle dialogue, learners examine belief systems, language, and Creator’s Four Laws. Participants engage with the Medicine Wheel, the concept of Wiin-Gush Miikon, and the interplay of traditional and contemporary cultures. By addressing trauma and shame, challenging stereotypes, and integrating ceremony such as Sweat teachings, students will strengthen self-awareness, clarify priorities, and develop culturally grounded approaches to community support and healing.
Held for students on the first and third Wednesday of each month. Drop in at any time during the sessions. Everyone is welcome.
