Part 6: Ancestral Resilience and Power (Self-Care Practices for Times of Injustice)

In this episode of the series 8 Self‑Care Practices for Times of Injustice and Rising Fascism — I dive into ancestral resilience — the deep strength, wisdom, and instincts passed down through generations that can support us as we navigate through these moments. I share real examples from my own life — my dad's example of dignity and power, the medicine of cacao, and the legacy of my Purépecha ancestors defending their sovereignty — to show how Ancestral Resilience and Generational Power can be tapped into as a real, living source of strength and resilience in times of hardship or injustice. *And if you're not wanting to reach for the sweets/snacks when your life or the world are feeling overwhelming, I want you to know it's essential to diversify our sources of comfort and strength. We get to claim and walk in the wisdom, resilience, and power already coursing through our veins. This isn't self‑care fluff. It's needed support and medicine. Press play. xo Brenda ps.
