Times for our Grand Forks screening next Friday, October 24 at the Gem Theatre!
All proceeds from the screenings will go to support our Snslxcin (Sinixt dialect) Language Revitalization Program.

Some information about the films:

Take It To The Water (12 minutes): Through rich sounds and beautiful images of the mountain-waterscapes of the Sinixt Təmxwúlaʔxw (homeland) in BC, Canada; the film invites us to deepen our relationship to Water. Sinixt Matriarch Marilyn James shares this indigenous practice and a group of children reflect on their experience of taking it to the Water.

Beyond Extinction: Sinixt Resurgence (60 minutes): Spanning over 25 years, Beyond Extinction: A Sinixt Resurgence is a visually rich and deeply moving documentary that follows the resurgence of the Sinixt people—whose traditional territories stretch across what is now southwest British Columbia and Washington State, territories divided by a colonial border.

Snk'mip: Dig Deeper (60 minutes): As an idealistic conservation group strives to restore a damaged wetland and tensions escalate with local off-road motorized users, an unexpected revelation uncovers the site's ancient Indigenous heritage, propelling them on a transformative journey of reconciliation with the Sinixt People and reshaping perspectives on land stewardship.

🌑✨ Embrace Your Shadow, Reclaim Your Light ✨🌑
Have you ever felt triggered by someone or something and wondered why it hits so deeply? Or found yourself repeating patterns that hold you back from the life you truly want? 🤔
These moments are invitations from your Shadow Self—the hidden parts of you that carry unresolved emotions, fears, or even untapped potential. Your shadow isn’t something to fear—it’s a guide, a teacher, and a doorway to profound healing and self-discovery.
🌟 What is the Shadow Self?
It’s the part of us we suppress or reject—qualities, emotions, or behaviors we’ve been taught are “unacceptable.” But by facing our shadows with compassion, we can:
✅ Heal emotional wounds
✅ Break free from self-sabotage
✅ Strengthen relationships
✅ Unlock creativity and personal power
✨ Shadow Work = Self-Love in Action ✨
Through reflection, journaling, affirmations, and mindfulness, we can shine light on these hidden parts and integrate them into our whole self. This isn’t about “fixing” yourself—it’s about loving and accepting ALL of who you are. 💛
💡 Ask Yourself:
• What traits in others trigger me, and what might they reveal about myself?
• What am I afraid to express or show the world?
🌿 Ready to explore your shadow and step into your authentic power? Let’s journey together. Comment below or DM me to learn more about shadow work and how it can transform your life! 💬✨

🌿 **Healing from Trauma: A Journey of Strength & Self-Love** 🌿

Trauma doesn’t define you—it is a chapter, not the whole story. Healing is a process of reclaiming your power, releasing what no longer serves you, and stepping into a life aligned with your true essence.

✨ **Here’s how you can begin:**
🔸 **Acknowledge Your Journey** – Honor your experiences without judgment. Healing starts with self-compassion.
🔸 **Feel to Heal** – Emotions are messengers, not enemies. Give yourself permission to process them.
🔸 **Shift Your Inner Narrative** – Replace limiting beliefs with affirmations of self-worth and resilience.
🔸 **Embrace Support** – You don’t have to do it alone. Seek a safe space—whether with a coach, therapist, friends, family or supportive community.
🔸 **Align with Your Truth** – Use tools like meditation, journaling, and the Medicine Wheel to reconnect with your purpose.

🌙 Every step forward, no matter how small, is progress. You are worthy of healing and peace. You are worthy of joy. You are worthy of being authenically YOU. 💖
