path

the Navajo see your life as a path. illness is a deviation from that path. they have ceremonies to bring you back to where you belong, to re-connect you to your surroundings, your self, your land, your family, the mountains and the sky. the ceremonies take hours, but they all begin the same way. someone comes to them for help, tells them that they are suffering, that they have come off their path-- that it is time to find their way back.

i think the healing starts right then.

Great post!

this is called transforming stagnation and opposition into positive change, at a small but very powerful level. i truly enjoyed your direct action.

on another note, i LOVE that one of the tags you created for this post, along with "DIY" and "family medicine" is "situationalist unicorns."

the personal is political

I think this post is something everyone should read. We live in such an individualistic culture that we often lose sight of the political, societal, or cultural factors.... Then you have the whole energy of shaming and blaming but I wont get into that now
