Atava Garcia Swiecicki: Curanderismo and Reconnecting with Ancestral Healing Practices
Manage episode 347717580 series 2904947
Josie talks with Atava Garcia Swiecicki (she/her/ella), an herbalist, curandera, teacher, and author of The Curanderx Toolkit. Josie and Atava discuss reconnecting with ancestral healing and medicinal practices passed through a lineage of teachers. This episode touches upon some specific practices of Indigenous Mexican Curanderismo such as limpias, and the concept of cosmovision.
Content Warning: brief mention of sexual assault and the Pulse shooting.
Note: This episode aired just a couple days after the Colorado Springs Club Q shooting, but we recorded it the week before the shooting so we didn’t know about it yet. Oddly, there is mention of the Pulse shooting in this episode and the work that Atava did to offer community care in its wake. I’m grateful for people like Atava who are offering their services to care for our queer community in times of crisis. And I'm holding you in my thoughts, dear listener, as you process and grieve the recent events.
