There’s so much possibility for healing, and also a responsibility to reckon with the histories that shape how we work with sacred medicines today
At GatherWell, we’re reflecting on what reparations and reciprocity really mean in practice: repair that is tangible, not symbolic, relationships that are ongoing, not extractive, and a way of walking with Indigenous lineage holders, the land, and the medicines themselves with humility and integrity.
This week on Substack, we explore how these principles guide our work, our apprenticeships, and our relationships with the Mazatec lineage. And we invite you to consider:
What does repair look like in your lineage?
What does reciprocity look like where your feet touch the earth?
