Lyla June on Indigenous Food Systems, Sacred Knowledge And Compassion - E99

How can deep listening guide us into paradigms of love and healing?

In this episode entitled Paradigms Embedded In Our Languages Of Beauty, Amisha speaks with Lyla June, Indigenous musician, scholar and community organiser.

They reflect on destruction of indigenous societies, indoctrination and economies of convenience. They speak of sacred practices and indigenous stories to guide our lives into compassion, re-skilling and self-love.

"We are sitting on the graveyard of vast, advanced, sophisticated, beautiful civilisations who we owe our very existence to oftentimes. Indigenous food scientists from thousands of years ago are what's feeding the world today. We brought the world potatoes. We brought the world tomatoes. We brought the corn. We brought the world cacao. We brought the world vanilla, you know, all these things. We had diverse systems. We understood that diversity was the cornerstone of health, and, I guess prosperity." Lyla June
