Feeling flowing gratitude and joy after a call this morning with Brenda Salgado. She shared indigenous prophecies about the times we're living in, and opportunities we have to create new irresistible spaces: “We need to stop asking the systems that are dying for permission to start building the world that we want. We need to just start building that world together."

She shared about the value of establishing energetic sovereignty and practicing discernment rather than judgment. Callers wanted to learn more about the earth-based ways of healing she practices and the power of holding space in circle and ceremony. She shared about how she came to this work and began connecting to the guidance of ancestors and the natural world, as well as her experience of healing family relationships along the way.

One of my immediate takeaways is to find this book she recommended for those of us wishing to begin to build trust in communities: Awakening Together: The Spiritual Practice of Inclusivity and Community, by Larry Yang.

We asked about how we can help, and she offered a few reflections:
* Support a vision for land to be cultivated as a center for healing and renewal
* Start circles wherever we are
* Develop connections to the land, because there is wisdom there and the land wants to help us too.

Many blessings!
