Balik Sa Budaya Natun: From New Age Spirituality to Ancestral Techno-ecologies
The ancestors are calling us back to their magic. Let’s face the shadows of ‘new age spirituality’ & move towards illumination of embodied techno-ecologies, from indigenous ancestral healing arts found across the islands.
Pag-Atiman Sa Tambal: Care for Ancestral Healing Medicines
How did islander ancestors heal before modern nurses? From fruits to trees, dance to speech, sea water & plant steam, let’s dive into rich native ecologies found in different islander traditions for healing. May we revive the medicine of our ancestors!
Mga Tanum sa Hunahuna: Psychoactive Plants of the Islands
Come into conscious awareness of diverse psychoactive plants found in the islands. We will mindfully situate this learning in the context of Drug Wars, Climate Change and factors that impact access to herbal knowledge.
Mga Bahandi Sa Nangagi: Ancient Treasures of the Archipelago
Join this historical journey into ancient, precolonial treasures in the archipelago known today as the Philippines. We’ll link the islands to a legacy of transoceanic cultural exchanges & natural biodiversity across maritime Southeast Asia. Unearth & reroot in the abundance of our islander heritages!
Mga Paagi Sa Katawhan (Ways of the People): Re-Indigenizing Plurality of ‘Filipino’ Psyche
From anthropological and fieldwork research, learn diversity of psychological & philosophical concepts in different cultures of the Philippines, moving beyond the current Tagalog-centered nationalist framework of ‘Filipino’ psychology.
