Here is a summary of the key points from the Red Road Journey discussion on March 20, 2024: - A poem was shared about dealing with grief and how loved ones who have passed are still with us in spirit if we look for the signs. Hummingbirds were discussed as spiritual messengers in Yaqui culture. - The importance of connecting with ancestors, Mother Earth and indigenous ecological knowledge was emphasized. Loss of that connection leads to spiritual and ecological imbalance. - In recovery, embracing stillness and feeling emotions fully, including anger, is crucial for growth. Addictive behaviors prevent connecting with oneself. - Wisdom was shared about not getting overly involved in others' conflicts but being a neutral peacemaker. - Channeling righteous anger at injustice into positive action is important, without letting anger consume you. The heartfelt discussion touched on grief, ancestral connection, indigenous wisdom, earth stewardship, addiction recovery, emotional management, and conflict navigation - all as part of the journey of walking the Red Road in a good way. Profound insights were vulnerably shared in hopes of inspiring others on their healing paths. More at ThreeSonorans.org
