PO Box 1 Y0B 1M0 Mayo, YT, Canada

With your purchase of this giftset, you are supporting the yukon soaps company in our mission to empower and nurture Yukon’s indigenous communities. Proceeds from each giftset go directly into my home-community of Mayo to support initiatives that include: training indigenous youth in traditional-medicine, small business skills development, language revitalization, and financial donations that go to local charities and community groups for indigenous cultural revitalization. T...here is so much goodness in this single purchase. So thank you for supporting my amazing community, and I hope that these oils and your act of kindness help you along your own healing journey. Soothan de ik’anate! That means to take care of yourself in Northern Tutchone (my grandmothers language), which I am honoured to help revitalize its use in my community through our initiatives. #yukonmade #essentialoils

Posted @withregram @decolonizefirst Cleansing body & spirit for a strong heart & mind isn’t new age, it’s Ancient & Indigenous. Never done to forget, or to be in a state of bliss - whatever that is. It’s done to be able to see clearly and gain the ability to take action in a good way. To activate our unique gifts in service of collective wellbeing.... Be wary of the renaming & rebranding of colonial violence, watch for powerful words like protest & medicine when they get applied to forces in service of power structures like white supremacy & toxic masculinity. Watch for the co-opting of revolution enacted to embody patriarchy. Cleanse & connect to clarity, generosity, solidarity & prayers for safety for all who are marginalized & unsafe. Share your comfort. It disrupts the selfishness & hatred of colonialism that we are trained to continue.

~ January can be super hard living in the north. Short days, mega darkness & super cold. It is also when we tend to do a lot of reflection and forward thinking about the year ahead. I hardly leave my house except for quick walks with the puppers. Those little bursts for sunshine are so healing. The Northern Tutchone word for the month of January means short day month. #thisnorthernlife #yukongirl #northerntuchone #indigenouslanguagerevitalization #reflection #yukon
