Cihuapactli Collective A COLLABORATIVE SPACE FOR INDIGENOUS WOMEN AND THEIR CHILDREN TO SHARE WISDOM ABOUT HEALTH & WELLNESS, ANCESTRAL FOODS, PRENATAL, BIRTHING, AND POSTPARTUM

Cihuapactli’s (womens’ medicina) vision is nurtured by Indigenous women and our semillitas as a collaborative effort to share knowledge and wisdom about health & wellness, traditional foods, art & expression, as well as ancestral/traditional prenatal, birthing, postpartum, and womb wellness. We envision un mundo donde quepan muchos mundos, a Zapatista inspired worldview. We understand that the legacies of colonialism and patriarchy continuously perpetuate our collective dignity. As such, we ask that each of us be inclusive to all muxeres without judgement. We are composed of women of all ages, stay-at-home mothers, queer families, health educators, youth, activistas, artists, students, doulas, midwives, promotoras, mujeres en academia, and the list continues! We meet via platicas, play dates, workshops and provide safe space for healing as we address the challenges of being Indigena and juggling life!

Today we are taking a moment to reflect on our accomplishments over the past 10 years. In 2015 a collective of women came together to support one another through postpartum, mothering, & womb health. We had comadre check-ins, made remedios, exchanged ancestral knowledge in our homes and in coffee shops & eventually extended care to our wider community. Five months ago, we purchased a building that held so many of these extensions for us.

Before the purchase, this building hosted our 2nd & 3rd Annual Ancestral Womb Wellness Gatherings, rebozo workshops, birth story shares, doula advocacy organizing, elder teachings & pop-ups supporting our mama hustles. Later in 2021 we became tenants, giving us a dedicated space beyond our homes. We activated the space with danza, a birthworker photo exhibit, doula and death comadre trainings, wellbriety training, talking circles & countless community meetings to grow & uplift one another.

Never did we imagine – three mujeres indigenas, busy mothers, running a grassroots org –could one day grow enough to own this commercial property. And in this economy?! It felt like a dream. But hope, community and unexpected resources kept nudging us forward.

September’s storms, a month after our purchase, proved this wasn’t going to be easy–but it was a blessing in disguise, giving us time to re-imagine the space. We hesitated to make changes because upgrades are expensive but the circumstances forced us to reconsider, to dream big!

Now, five months later, repairs & upgrades are in the works. We’ve already created so many beautiful memories here & we can’t wait to make more!

If you are interested in sharing this space as a long term tenant or short term renter, we’re taking inquiries to build a coworking community. If you’d simply like to support the unexpected cost of rebuilding, please consider donating to our repair fund (link in bio). 

As always, we are deeply grateful for everyone who’s been a part of our journey! We plan to have a grand opening to celebrate with y’all next month, so stay tuned! Tlazocamati! Maltiox! Diosï maiamu!
