Coming Home To Ourselves & Each Other

We all long to belong—to feel rooted in something deeper than the forces of separation, extraction, and individualism instilled in us by the capitalist system in which we were raised. Whether through undoing assimilation, a felt disconnection from the land and community, or a desire to live with greater integrity, Reclaiming Indigeneity offers a path forward to all.

Native and Indigenous teachings remind us that true belonging comes through responsibility, humility, and right relationship. The "Coming Home" framework guides anyone ready to unlearn assimilation's habits—fear, competition, greed—and practice living according to Indigenous values that strengthen our own spirits and honor the earth.

Join seekers, descendants, and allies doing the inner and relational work to behave in ways that reflect Indigenous wisdom: gratitude for all creation, accountable community membership, and joyful reconnection.

We Belong When We Choose to Live Differently

Coming Home Work: A Clarifying Framework

Every journey home is unique, but we all benefit from a map. Coming Home Work helps us navigate layers of identity, heal disconnection, and change behaviors with respect and care. It rejects entitlement and embraces the honor of being welcomed into relationship—whether through ancestry, chosen community, or allyship. Together, we become people who add strength wherever we are because we have a framework that helps us rise to the highest levels of our own integrity.

Becoming Accountable Community Members

Our work is to cultivate our ability to be silent, to listen, and be humble. To be aware of our own emotions and behaviors so that if they need correcting, we do it right away, and see it as a kindness not a criticism. To shift our attention towards our connection to the beauty of the world. To be grateful for all of creation.

Greed, fear, isolation, competition, ego, rugged individualism, and arrogance were acceptable behaviors in the capitalist system we were raised in. It is only from a place of rigorous honesty and heartfelt communal safety that we can do the work to unlearn these behaviors so that we can behave according to Indigenous values instead. Whether we have Native or Indigenous roots or not, this puts us on a road where we are walking out of capitalism, towards an Indigenous alternative by changing ourselves first along the way.

Join our Intro Workshop to learn about the decolonial coming home framework that guides us all towards behaving according to Indigenous values.

What People Are Saying About Our Classes

  • From Nicole Brathewaite-Hunt in Worcester, MA

    My name is Nicole and I recently completed the Journey Home (Reclaiming Indigeneity) workshop series with Rosa Blumenfeld. What an eye opening, and informative series this turned out to be! She took what is a very controversial and daunting subject, and broke it down into a sensitive, honorable dialog on how we got to this place of separation, and how we can start having the tough, but necessary conversations about how we can "come back home to ourselves"; in a good way. From the very first class, everyone seemed to feel the energy of this being a safe and sacred space in which to learn, be vulnerable, ask questions, and "Go there!". The respect was always front and center. I loved how the comradery just seemed to bloom, and grow so quickly; especially over Zoom! The teachings, personal sharings, mutual support, and acceptance, gave every one one us the opportunity to go deep, and get unexpected insights from the series. It certainly did add to my personal journey of discovery, and "Going Home" work. If you ever get the chance to participate in this workshop, I would highly recommend it! Thanks again Rosa! Great job!

  • From Jasmine Inaru Karey Pacheco-Monroe in Orlando, FL

    This class really helped me. Rosa Blumenfeld’s material and discussion was thought provoking and challenging. It was a safe place to allow myself to be unraveled and learn to rebuild. It gave me new perspective and the courage to find my community and begin to have new views and beliefs. Because of this class, I had discussions with my family, and found my yukayek, my new family. I made friends who understood the journey I am still on. (Especially M. If you see this, I love you and can’t wait til we see each other again.) Check it out. Thank u Rosa. U changed my life. Without my yukayek I would have been in a very dark place after losing momma.

  • From Michelle C. Suarez in Orlando, FL (Seminole and Micossukee territories)

    Really recommend this class for folks who grew up in Latinidad and want to reconnect to their Indigenous roots. I found a lot of healing uncovering my identity and coming into terms of what it means to be a descendant.
