The call has gone out to the Rainbow Tribes of the world; heal and unite! The Tawatinaw Initiative for Peace and Independence (TIPI) is a group of local leaders joining together in peace and freedom to answer the call. On July 20 – 22, 2018 we invite you to join us in a one of a kind weekend retreat to start the process of healing, reconciliation and decolonization. The Decolonizing our Lives - Spiritual Stewardship Circle Retreat is an intense, 2 1/2 day experience where we provide a safe environment for people to share their stories of colonization, explore their roles in life, connect with other tribes and where we can start making our own stories, ceremonies and experiences to bridge the gaps between us all in order to heal and unite.
This retreat is located off grid at the homes of Natalie Pepin (
Hive account@harvardhomestead) who lives on the east side of the Tawatinaw Valley and White Walking Feather (
Hive account@wwf) who lives with his wife (
Hive account@carey-page) on the west side of the same valley near Perryvale Alberta, northern border of Treaty 6 territory. We invite the ladies to start their journey at Natalie’s domain and the men will join White Walking Feather on his. Towards the end of the retreat, the two groups will then come together in peace, honour and respect as we work through the protocols and ceremonies we can use to bring these ideas into the world.
Join us for healing, story telling, sharing, caring, protocol and decolonization ceremonies to help bring the tribes together in peace, freedom, prosperity and independence as we work to unlearn the harmful ways of our current society and bring in the new!
I will be posting the details on the 
Hive account@tipi-steward blog while Hive account@harvardhomestead is posting details on Facebook. If you want to book your spot today, just follow this link.
About the group
TIPI (Hive account@tipi-steward) is a group of local leaders dedicated to helping others with the decolonization process. We are putting together a comprehensive curriculum to help facilitate that process so that people can find the support, knowledge and experience to UNGRIP from the colonial systems and return to the land. The Spiritual Stewardship Circle retreat is an introductory offering to help people start the core healing in preparation for the work ahead. Over time, TIPI will either develop or vet existing courses offered by others in order to build a curriculum that will support the journey towards healing and skill building with confidence. Being mentored by elders or other tribe members who have the extensive experience and knowledge in all the different areas required, will help the individual to put it all together so that they too can pass on their knowledge and build tribes of their own while they heal their relationship with Mother Earth.
We are just kicking off this idea and this retreat is our first offering. If this resonates with you, then I welcome you to join us next month on a weekend journey of story telling, healing and connecting with each other and Mother Earth as we work on the decolonization process.
