このコンテンツについて
From Indigenous scholar Yuria Celidwen comes a first-of-its-kind book about our aspiration for sustainable, collective flourishing through Indigenous wisdom, traditions, and practices that bridge Indigenous and Western knowledges and ways.
How do we cultivate happiness? When facing the monumental challenges of our world, we often end up disconnecting in order to focus on our mental health. Dr. Yuria Celidwen explains this focus on our own state of mind alone is precisely why so many of us struggle to flourish. “What’s been overlooked is the Indigenous perspective of relationality,” she says. “It is the understanding that happiness is only possible in community, when we cultivate our relationships toward all kin, from human to more-than-human, and to our living Earth.”
Dr. Celidwen’s research shows the tremendous benefit of integrating Indigenous approaches into our approach to well-being, while recognizing the gains made by Western positive psychology, mindfulness, and neuroscience. In Flourishing Kin, she identifies seven key principles found in Indigenous cultures worldwide that embrace virtue, ethical living, and spirituality. Each principle—Kin Relationality, Body Seed, Senshine, Heartfelt Wisdom, Ecological Belonging, Collective Well-Being, and Reemergence—is a seed to flourishing kin, and reveals how we can overcome isolation and climate anxiety, nourish healthy relationships with our communities and environment, and build strong foundations of well-being that elevate our life choices for the benefit of our whole planet.
Sustainable collective flourishing goes beyond optimism or resilience. Offering opportunities for exploration, reflection, and personalized insight, here you’ll find shared storytelling, cultural tradition, and other forms of enhanced contemplative practice like ritual, music, movement, and art to support your journey. Through poetic expression and authentic truth telling, Dr. Celidwen invites us to experience a path to fulfillment that allows us to meet the world in all its complexity with reverence and joyous commitment to participate in the flourishing of all living beings.
批評家のレビュー
“Immense gratitude to the energy of the nahual kat for giving our dear sister Yuria Celidwen the authority to share the wisdom of our Peoples. In the twelve chapters of Flourishing Kin, the voice of the great Spirit gives life to the distinct and diverse cosmovisions of our Indigenous Peoples of the world. I raise my word to the eternal infinite of the Divine Creator, the heart of the Skies, the heart of Mother Earth to bless the words in this book. May they connect with the reader to awaken our practices, revitalize our cultures, and attain harmony with Mother Earth. This book is an opening path! Matiox Ajaw jun, kamul, Ajaw, one, two, and three times thank you.” —Angelina Sacbajá Tun, sacred knowledge keeper of the Maya Kaqchikel, International Council of Thirteen Indigenous Grandmothers, and leader of traditional Indigenous midwifery
“Spoken as a true sage, Yuria Celidwen has voiced a mindful story of prayer, hope, and remembrance of the Indigenous Spirit of Mindfulness. It is a story of a Spirit that still exists and whispers to us its message of love, kindness, and reverence for undying Spirit of Life. A pleasure to read and an inspiration for all to move forward to mindfully face the intractable challenges of our times!” —Gregory Cajete, PhD, former director of Native American Studies at the University of New Mexico and author of Native Science
“Indigenous cultures have managed to live sustainably in their natural habitats for many thousands of years. They know things about life and land, kin and relationality, nature and sustainability that we humans need to wake up to and instantiate on every level, from the personal to the planetary. In Flourishing Kin, Yuria Celidwen shows herself to be a weaver of worlds, articulating the original Indigenous sacredness and interconnectedness of all life on this precious planet of ours, and the need for us as humans at this moment to live our way into the very real strands of relationality and kinship that might sustainably right long-standing wrongs and injustices and repair the harm, the exploitation, and the grief that our othering and impulses to capitalize, extract, and dominate inevitably lead to. The only way to do this, of course, is for humanity to wake up to its deepest embodied and enacted nature, and this is what this book might just catalyze and nurture in us going forward.” —Jon Kabat-Zinn, PhD, founder of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction and author of Full Catastrophe Living and Coming to Our Senses
