Season 1 - Episode 002 - Healing through Rematriation

Hey there, it's Natasha and Rasquii . We're on a hike here in the golden light, on the golden hills of Coast Miwok land.

It's peaceful afternoon in the middle of the chaos that we're living with. The catastrophic fires in Maui, the fires advancing from the north in Oregon, the projections of a hurricane, about to hit Tang Land south of here Los Angeles area. And in the midst of all of this kind of, uh, really savoring this piece.

And also feeling very much the tremendous celebration of the watershed climate, crisis Montana ruling, which I want to dedicate a whole episode too.

But just really so inspired and grateful, um, for the work of Julia Olsen and all of the team of Our Children's Trust.

I wanted to pop in here, to talk a little bit about who this podcast is for. This podcast is for earth lovers. It's for farmers and scientists, for environmentalists and activists, for artists, for mothers, for conservationists and filmmakers, for journalists and students and gardeners, for illustrators, for poets, for earth lovers who have a sense that life doesn't have to be this way. That is craziness that we are experiencing doesn't have to be this way, that life is meant to be lived in a much more nature centered way, grounded like the earth and flow like water, uplifted like the air, passionately like fire and full of possibility like space.

The podcast is for people who are feeling the call and the pull of alignment of their heart of the earth and all are king and of those yet to be born. I'm picturing all of you here on this walk with RAs and me on this, uh, journey towards realignment, towards remembering, towards rematriation.

I wanted to also say a few more words about that word, rematriation, which is at the core of what we're doing together. As I mentioned, this is what our Indigenous kin, brothers, sisters, family, relatives are calling for. And one way to think of rematriation is rendering the mother's sacred again. So coming back into acknowledgement that the earth is a living, being not a collection of resources, not the backdrop for our life, not even just kind of our home, but actually a being that we are part of, that we are also meant to be in deep relationship with. And that is worthy of our respect, of our tension, of our care, of our protection. And repatriation is about learning how to come back into our place, back into the role that we are meant to have as human beings, which is that of being in beautiful, deep, rich, meaningful relationship with you. And this relationship is really at the core of our wellbeing, of our health, of our relationships, of our work, of the wellbeing of the earth, and the wellbeing of future generations as well. So rematriation is about coming back into integral alignment with who we're and releasing, the tremendous healing power that is available to us in that.
And within this healing, of course, comes great resilience. Resilience, which gives us the ability to weather the storms that we are living through, and not only to get through, but to grow through and to be able to thrive on the other side.
