Invitation to holistic approach learning outcome by Rainbow woman


Nurture Spirit, Heart, Mind and Body

Presented by Rainbow Woman

Learn to apply a holistic approach to life, which means recognizing and nurturing the Spirit, Heart, Mind and Body and all areas of life and relationship. Ningwakwe will present a learning outcome for each of the four aspects and a practical way in which Aboriginal educators facilitate that learning outcome.


Presenter Facilitator: Ningwakwe (Rainbow Woman), aka Priscilla George, is a Deer Clan Anishnawbe Kwe from the Chippewas of augeen First Nation.  Ningwakwe has been involved with cultivating indigenous training from the grassroots and international levels.

Ningwakwe advocates for the holistic approach to life, which means recognizing and nurturing the Spirit, Heart, Mind and Body and all areas of life and relationship. This is the foundation for developing positive cultural identity, which gives us the skills to walk successfully in two worlds – the aboriginal and the non-aboriginal.

Target Audience:  Community organizations, Schools, Families, Recreation Managers, Literacy Programmers and Practitioners, Social Workers, Family Support Workers, Teachers, Education Assistants, Learning Coach, and Residential School Survivors.

Date: Monday, September 8 from 10 am to 3 pm. Networking begins early at 9 am.  Please bring indigenous materials, your organization profile and any other information which you would like to share or display.
