Indigenous Healing & The Path to Liberation

​

We Are The Medicine Initiative

​

At The Gods Rose, we are dedicated to bridging the gap between underserved communities and their ancestral roots. Our initiative offers a series of workshops designed to educate and raise awareness about Indigenous (Native American and African) healing modalities.

​

We are beginning our journey in the heart of Southeast D.C., where the need for reconnection and healing is profound. These workshops are more than just educational experiences—they are pathways to reconnecting with the wisdom of our ancestors. For generations, healing traditions such as herbal medicine and sacred ceremonies, were marginalized and suppressed. Now, these powerful modalities are resurfacing, but access remains limited, especially in the very communities from which these practices originate. In communities where disconnection from traditional healing practices has been deeply felt, we aim to restore this knowledge, empowering individuals with tools for self-healing and communal well-being.

​

This initiative also serves to raise funds to bring sacred medicines to these communities, ensuring accessibility to transformative healing experiences. Beyond providing access, we train participants to administer their own medicine, fostering autonomy and sustainability in their healing journeys.

​

Join us as we honor the sacred traditions of our ancestors and awaken the medicine within us all. Together, we can heal, reconnect, and rise.
