Name three traditions  the Indigenous people do and we can respectfully. 

  • Cleaning/decluttering your house is a way to create a clean and calm environment in your home, and setting up for success. 


  • Exercising the arts is another way to nurture creativity and challenging creativity. 


  • Hold a moment of prayer (a moment to heal, and helping others recover too).


  • Recognize your intentions by journaling or keeping them in mind. Whether it’s a goal or yearn for success, whether physical, mental, social, academic or personal, try to mention it, believe that it’s possible.  


  • Cook your favorite meal, and eat it with friends and family. This will feed your body and invoke kinship with loved ones.
