SUMMARY:Traditional Putting the Bears to Sleep Ceremony
DESCRIPTION:Elders of all nations are calling for a traditional ceremony. In the old\, traditional\, and spiritual ways of this ceremony\, the people are not provided honorariums\, only a chance to give back to what is given. \nDagwaagin (it is autumn/fall)\, and giiwaydin (the winter spirit) will soon be here.\nWe heal the Earth (manidoo aki)\, dancing upon her with soft moccasins.\nThose gitigaanan (gardens/farms) are to be put to rest.\nWe put makwa (bear) to sleep.\nIn the way of The People\, we dance on her. \nWe welcome the grass dancers\, the jingle dress dancers\, the traditional dancers\, the butterfly dancers\, and the garden keepers. \nBring your bear rugs\, your sacred items\, rattles\, drums\, and next year’s seeds. American Indian Family Center’s Imnizaska will be the big drum. \nNations have always provided a Thank you Manidoo Aki ceremony for what we have harvested from Mother Earth. Nations are spiritual people as seen in our language of recognizing that we are all related. Everything on Earth is dependent on each other. \nLet’s dance and sing to thank our Mother for what she has provided. Makwa is put to sleep at this time of the year. Bear healings come out in the spring\, offering new life\, in many ways\, of healing to our people. \n“Bakakinnanishkwande” You are all welcome in our Healing Circle facilitated by the Indian Health Board of Minneapolis’ Indigenous Spiritual Leader\, D. Richard Wright/ Wii-Sug Indigo of Zagaswajimekaag (Leech Lake Reservation). Makwa doodem a’aw Wii-Sug Indigo. \nWhen and where: Wednesday\, September 21\, 2022\, from 4:00 PM to dusk at the Indian Mounds Burial Site\, a sacred burial place of a thousand years (10 Mounds Blvd\, Saint Paul\, Minnesota). \n*Please bring a lawn chair or a blanket to sit on. Women are encouraged to wear skirts. Food will be provided.

SUMMARY:Women's Sweat
DESCRIPTION:Artwork credit: The Lodge by Sharifah \n\nPlease plan to be there at 5 PM so that we can be entering the lodge right at 6 PM.\nA light meal will also be shared afterward. Please feel free to bring food to share\, but it isn’t required.\nFacilitated by Sharyl Whitehawk every first Friday of the month; please call to verify.\n\nWhat to bring and wear: a loose-fitting dress\, shorts/skirt for inside the lodge\, along with a loose-fitting shirt\, a change of clothes for after\, a towel\, drinking water\, and a dish to share later (optional). A modest t-shirt or top is also acceptable upon wearing a long skirt or shorts. \nAIFC’s Women’s Sweats are regularly scheduled. If you are interested in attending a regularly scheduled sweat or have questions\, please get in touch with Sharyl Whitehawk at (651) 505-6838\, (719) 322-4447\, or Sharyl.Whitehawk@aifcmn.org. \nMiigwech! \nDirections to the sweat lodge: Turn left into the drive\, and then open the gate (it’s not locked but looks like it is) and drive through\, staying to the right at 2 forks until you go up a small hill where the sweat lodge and a parking area is. \n  \nSweat lodge teachings: \nA sweat lodge is a tool for healing everything that a person wants healing for. It begins with a firepit where your intentions for the sweat are given with tobacco. The firepit represents the Creator\, whereas the fire has the power of transformation. So\, it holds the stones\, heating them and getting them ready for healing work. The path to the lodge is a lifetime of unresolved issues that you carry with you. As you enter the Eastern doorway you announce yourself by Spirit Name and clan. If you do not have them\, just use your English name. You sit where the person pouring assigns you. In most cases\, the women come in first\, and then the men. The stones are brought in by a firekeeper who brings in the stones with the person who is pouring’s guidance. The people in the lodge are being reconnected to their first mother\, the Earth. The sweat lodge and the firepit in the lodge are dome-shaped and represent the womb and have the power of rebirth. The stones once brought in become grandmothers and grandfathers who heard the intentions and come in to help. The doorway is closed\, and the four directions are honored and asked to assist. It can be hot when the water is added to the grandmothers and grandfathers. Steam is the conductor of transformation. The steam pulls out the trapped issues or problems that the person is hanging onto and releases them so that healing can happen. The songs\, prayers\, and medicines shared in the lodge help people let go of their resistance. The time in the sweat lodge varies as well as the number of stones used. It can be short as an hour or up to 2 hours long. It can have 7 up to 42 stones. It can be done in any part of the day. A sweat lodge is a healing tool that has been passed down for generations and is changing with the times. \n  \n
