Adapting curanderismo to the bioregion

Wisdom of the people

"We continue to be people of the water. We are of the bays, inlets, and streams. Our lives depend on the stewardship we extend to all the earth, and the resources given to us from the creator."

"Our old ways are mostly memories, but our ideas march to their beat."
-Squaxin tribal elders.

"Hishuk ish ts'awalk, everything is one."
-Nuu-Chah-Nulth People Vancouver Island

“If all wisdom was acquired without, it might be politic to make our culture cosmopolitan. But I believe our best wisdom does not come from without, but arises in the soul and is an emanation of the earth-spirit, a voice speaking directly to us as dwellers in the land.” [The Interpreters, By Irish author, AE.]

"To forget how to dig the earth and tend the soil is to forget ourselves."

— Mahatma Gandhi
