The Ancestral Science podcast got to learn from Dr. Yellow Bird, by first beginning with a guided meditation to ground ourselves and focus on the present, then we explored a mathematical equation for decolonization, how Auntie jokes can protect the brain, the effects of colonization on our bodies and brains, the smell of bacon and well-being, mindfulness and systemic racism, and ancestral eating.Thanks to Emil Starlight for the seamless editing, videography, and audio, Alex for pod support and marketing.
