Workshop presented by Chhoti Maa, Multidisciplinary Cultural Producer.

This workshop,  delves through the 13 airs that affect the body, soul and spirit according to Mexican traditional medicine practitioner Estela Roman. The airs of the soul are susto, fright, sadness, worry, anger, shame, resentment, grief, envy, jealousy, guilty, fear, and egotism. This workshop will utilize oral tradition, drawing and creative writing to help folks identify the airs that are prevalent in their body and their family. This is a workshop for introspection and release. Utilizing Indigenous medicine/philosophy we will get an in depth understanding of how to unknot internalized systems of oppression.
