The Way of the Feather Journal: Indigenous Protocols

A companion journal to the book The Way of the Feather : Indigenous Protocols.You are holding something rare. Not a workbook in the traditional sense - this is a companion. A place to slow down, to make marks, to listen to what arrives when you stop performing and start simply being.The Way of the Feather is not a curriculum to complete. It is a circle to walk. Come back to these pages in different seasons of your life. What you write today will carry a different meaning in six months. What you draw will surprise you. What you feel will shift.There is no right way to use this workbook. But there is a spirit in which it was made, and that spirit is this:"Healing isn't about something that is wrong with you, but where you are fascinated, where you have fallen in love with the notion of being completely you."-Way of the FeatherTrust the process. Trust the feather that arrives. Trust yourself.Some gentle guidelines:- Work slowly. There is no rushing the medicine.- Return to pages.

Some prompts are seeds, not tests.-Write, scribble, sketch, doodle. All of it counts.-Share in circle if that calls to you. Wisdom deepens in community.You are enough. Whether you have that spark at the beginning or you find it through the process — any step is good enough. Read more
