I was touched to see this above video.
Healing and healers hold a very special place with me.
I also loved your Sauna vids. and wondered if you would bring the Sauna up.

I did not know him, but saw him in the Alice townscape frequently. Did not know he is a healer.
The most prominent 'energy-signature' I saw was like being a business man (liaising between Aboriginal and White).
I suppose, he is trying to lift his people’s living standards by creating a sustainable cottage industry.
Quite a few half & halves are doing that and trying to be a positive bridge between the 2 cultures.
But if you are fake in Alice and/or self-serving or exploiting the culture – you would not last long, and he has.

Going back to what you said earlier:
Did you know Che Guevara was Argentinian-Irish descend?
That puts him in a new light – doesn’t it?

& I also didn’t know there was a whole movement of Irish deserters from the Swedish army:

Ah, the art of disguise. I suppose my great, great … something Irish grandfather learned his outrageous disguise from those friars, which lifted our morale during the time of Lutheran oppression, when we were condemned to hell for generations to come.

So, our Irish (turned into nonviolent resistance) was a real blessing in disguise and his ingenuity also lifted our living standards as he was deeply communally oriented caring for the welfare of the whole village. Still proud of his legacy.

I’m sure this Irish fighting spirit is good as gold, depending how one uses it.

And meanwhile up in Lapland, I think I’ve mentioned it before - the Saami would rather see their children run as bears and wolves (by shapeshifting) than be forced to join the army – anyone’s army.

You must have been reading my mind.
Brought in some Juniper Sage this morning!

I felt so - so humbled again ...
Which one does meeting these genuinely 'spiritual people' from the bush ...

Off to “Happy Herb” shop to get some Smudge to try … :smile:

It seems to be another phrase for a universal experience.

I am Wabi Sabi :biggrin:

I am what I eat so I am only wasabi.:biggrin:

I can't speak about where the fighting Spirit of the Irish emanates from, but maybe it has grown out of survival, just as the Bear and Wolf will fight for survival.

Or, it may have emanated from alcohol consumption.I know with myself I have not resorted to violence once I stopped drinking.
