“Tobacco
Commitment Pouch” Native American Workshop
Winter is known as the time of silent
contemplation; a time to go inward and ponder the mystery of our
lives. Tobacco is the most sacred of the four sacred medicines of
native peoples of the Americas. Together, we will make a tobacco
commitment pouch to help us release any patterns that may be
blocking us from "healing and manifesting" our hopes and dreams of
this New Year.
".....everything on the earth has a purpose,
every disease an herb to cure it, and every person a mission".
