About From the Center of Mother Earth (Do Centro da Mãe Terra)

From the Center of Mother Earth brings the vision to strengthen our traditional culture and the wisdom of medicinal plants and ancestral healing practices, with a focus on the peoples of the Southern Atlantic Forest. With the purpose of rescuing the autonomy and sovereignty of traditional life, keeping alive our sacred knowledge of indigenous healing with Medicinal Plants, self-care rituals, and the powerful relationship between healing and nature.

Our indigenous healing arts center also aims to create space for healing talk circles, as well as develop courses and experiences to share ancestral knowledge and the memory of our families.

See also the series, Indigenous Phytotherapy: the Plants that Heal, which focuses on providing moments of knowledge exchange about Medicinal Plants and indigenous healing practices in search of spiritual, physical, and emotional healing for ourselves and our communities. Learn more on Instagram.
