These books are the quintessential healing guides for our diaspora bodies, centering land based and ancestral healing practices from deeply-rooted cultures.

The Path of Practice: Bri Maya Tiwari offers a short course in healing and living and reveals how she has gone back to the sources of Ayurvedic wisdom to reclaim time-honored, natural, and spiritual techniques for contemporary life.

The Land in Our Bones: Tying cultural survival to earth-based knowledge, Lebanese ethnobotanist, sovereignty steward, and cultural worker Layla K. Feghali offers a layered history of the healing plants of Cana’an (the Levant) and the Crossroads (“Middle East”) and asks into the ways we become free from the wounds of colonization and displacement.

Braiding Sweetgrass: Drawing on her life as an indigenous scientist, & as a woman, Kimmerer shows how other living beings—asters & goldenrod, strawberries & squash, salamanders, algae, and sweetgrass—offer us gifts and lessons, even if we've forgotten how to hear their voices.
