June is National Indigenous History Month in Canada and we have curated a few resources to learn more, get involved and ways to support Indigenous communities here.

Healers and Mental Health Workshops and Trainings

Asha Frost

Asha is an Ojibwe (Crane clan) Indigenous healer, who offers different courses and has two medicine oracle decks that offer beautiful reflections, intuitive guidance and celebrates indigenous wisdom and artistry in each card pull. She also has a book that follows the full moons, with rituals, teachings and practices throughout each full moon.

Indigenous Wisdom in Trauma Recovery

“Grandmother's Voice is offering the ‘Indigenous Wisdom in Trauma Recovery: Land-Based Focusing Oriented Therapy’ certificate program, starting May 2025 in Halton Region, Ontario. This transformative one-year training, led by Elder Dennis Windego, comprises seven modules delivered in three-day block sessions. The curriculum integrates Indigenous teachings with contemporary therapeutic practices, focusing on healing complex trauma through land-based methodologies.”

The Eternal Song

This is a film sharing ancestral wisdom for trauma recovery as well as an online gathering (the live version is over but you can purchase the recordings and they are wonderful) with a range of indigenous elders and wisdom keepers from across the globe.

Non-Insured Health Benefits (NIHB) Providers

If you have adequate cultural competence around indigenous communities on turtle island and are an independent practitioner, you might be eligible to be an NIHB provider.
