LIFE as Medicine is providing spaces, times and places to land and connect, and collaboratively deepen our understandings of how to practice for and with Indigenous peoples in more sustainAble ways in today’s complex conditions. We are able to provide qualified and experienced supervision to meet your RCAT/CRPO/RSW requirements.

This Fall, we will be offering two sessions: one space is designated for Indigenous Healers familiar with LIFE as Medicine teachings, and another for Settler allies wishing to deepen their understanding of Indigenous Teachings, with opportunities for shared space as arising.

Jean Tait, well known as a Canadian Indigenous Artist for her work with Ancient Symbols, has been in private practice as Art Can Heal since 2008 and has experience working with Indigenous groups and individuals.

Our holistic practice model LIFE as Medicine embraces Lived Experience, interwoven with Indigenous Spirituality, Feminist Activism, and a dedication to Ecological Sustainability. We welcome co-creation of Indigenous Healing Arts practices embedded within trauma-integrating and resiliency-based approaches, where together, we recognize growth opportunities arising within “personal” challenges experienced. Simultaneously we acknowledge interweaving of ancestral, intergenerational, collective and ecological trauma fields and encourage support and advocacy for Indigenous individuals, families and communities while enacting systemic, structural and ecological change.
