Nurture
Spirit, Heart, Mind and Body
Presented by Rainbow Woman
Learn to apply a
holistic approach to life, which means recognizing and nurturing the Spirit,
Heart, Mind and Body and all areas of life and relationship. Ningwakwe will present a learning outcome for
each of the four aspects and a practical way in which Aboriginal educators
facilitate that learning outcome.
Presenter
Facilitator: Ningwakwe (Rainbow Woman), aka Priscilla George, is a
Deer Clan Anishnawbe Kwe from the Chippewas of augeen First Nation. Ningwakwe has been involved with cultivating
indigenous training from the grassroots and international levels.
Ningwakwe advocates for the holistic approach to life, which means
recognizing and nurturing the Spirit, Heart, Mind and Body and all areas of
life and relationship. This is the foundation for developing positive cultural
identity, which gives us the skills to walk successfully in two worlds – the
aboriginal and the non-aboriginal.

Coach, and Residential School Survivors.
