Native American teachings for homekeeping are full of wellness knowledge that can transform our lives today, through heritage-honoring design, sustainable minimalism, and intentional entertaining that best reflect our values. In the modern world, people often disregard the true power of the home, ignoring its role in our self-care and healthcare, but Native teachings are uniquely positioned to reveal the home as a living, breathing structure that impacts our mental, physical, spiritual, and emotional sense of wellbeing.
Inspired by this enduring wisdom and her experience applying it in her own home, Chelsey Luger will help you transform your home into:
- a hub for family connection and community building
- a source of optimism and joy from the moment we wake up in the morning
- a scene rich in stories about our heritage, ancestry, and values
- a supportive structure for good habits of moving more, reading more, sleeping better, eating healthier, and spending more time outside.
By tapping into a wellspring of ancestral knowledge and modern Indigenous expertise, Native Home empowers you to make small changes to bring your home to life—a source of optimism and joy connected with your values, rich with intention, and set up to lead you and your family toward a thriving existence.
