- Navajo Grandma uses Smudging to Bring in the New Year. She shares the teachings of her ancestors and provides valuable insight into attracting the positive and refusing the negative.
Just imagine if everyone would be like Navajo Grandmother in this world, it would be such an amazing Earth. I wish everyone would watch these videos as you touch the heart and soul in a person with your beautiful energy. Thank you so much and blessings and prayers to everyone ❤❤❤🙏
Charlotte how powerful are you? Wow your comment just filled me with such goodness and I see your heart and soul so beautiful and I don't think you need this cleansing as you are filled with such beauty of Hozho. Peace, Beauty, Balance and Harmony. What we speak is a mirror of whom we are. Thank you for your kindness and hugs yourself as I am sending healing hugs to you that you see that you have a new lease on life and now run with it. Be powerfully empowered and do it without negativity but positive vibrations and energy of which we are made of. You are lovely. Hugs from Navajo Grandma
God bless you and thank you for this message! I’m Cherokee and my mom never was taught the customs. When I see videos like yours it feels like home to me even though I was not taught Native ways.
My heart feels so blessed to have found your videos and I really needed to see this one.
I’m a believer in Jesus Christ and many have different opinions on Native Americans and our Father in Heaven.
Thank you so much for teaching that both are desperately needed in our lives.
God bless you Grandma!
What a wonderful beautiful comment and thank you for being so clear and seeing this need more so now in this day. We need to make choices and I pray we make the right ones. You said it most perfectly. Great wisdom. Hugs from Navajo Grandma
Bless you beautiful woman. I used to always just smudge my house and never thought to smudge myself ;
oh, I think this is going to be the best practice I take on. Thank you so much.
Wonderful! There is always something we learn. Smudge away with your new lease on your Hozho life. That is walking in beauty life. Paw paw paw, release the bad, welcome in the good. Hugs. Navajo Grandma
Thank you, beautiful Navajo Grandma. ❤️
@ScarlettRose7221 Hugs from Navajo Grandma. So appreciate your comment.
Thanks for this. To cleanse my life, you'd need a forest. I am only 36 but feel like I've lived for 100 years. This made me feel a little better though! Keep going Grandma. I appreciate your insight and uplifting attitude.
Hyala, no need for a forest, remember what Gma said, forgiving yourself first, though not easy, but I give you permission that you can do it. Then also Gma gave you a new lease on life. Begin right now, paw paw paw, your whatever past is gone, now move forward CLEAN, NEW, yup, it’s done. Most of all love you, yourself Hyala, dear one. I believe in you and I don’t even need to see you, your worth is boundless, more value than the whole world, how powerful is that. Yup it’s in you. Remember. Hugs galore. Navajo Grandma
I want to make this woman a Natural Treasure! She is one reason I feel that Grandmothers need to hold positions of power. We lead with our hearts and don't want power...only peace and love. She is a leader. ❤❤❤
Oh my what a powerful statement of hozho. For hozho is filled with "peace, beauty, balance & harmony that all people who breathe do seek." Thank you, as we are all leaders within our own circles, communities and state, tribes or nations. We are the light to others and I pray we will remain this way and become brighter with the light of God, to be Saviors to all mankind. Now is the time to stand against evil trying to overshot our light individually and outwardly. Men's hearts are hardening, anger leads our ways, a kind word, a hand up is forgotten but selfishness reigns with Satan. May we stand with God, pray with great faith, give hope and a hand up. Give a hug, a smile but pray always for the poor, sick & lost and more so our enemies. May God help each of us to be the leaders we are. We weren't reserved for this time and day for nothing. God reserved those alive with power to stand against evil and you and I are His army. May we take our place. Amen. Hugs, Navajo Grandma
I always smudge my dwelling when I move in to a new house.
Always with sage. You just taught me about juniper... I had never heard of using juniper until now. Thank you Navajo Grandma!!!
You are amazing and so prepared in being sure you home is clean and full of Hozho. Wonderful!! Navajo Grandma
You make us happy Grandma. You are a powerful spirit. You have kind ways, and nothing is more powerful than your kindness!
Kindness comes from God.
Hi Navajo grandma! Not sure if you’ll see this comment but thank you so so much for these videos I’m also Navajo but unfortunately the native traditions died with my great grandmother so I wasn’t taught anything. I’m the first in my family since my great grandmother to start my decolonization journey and become closer to my roots and you’re teaching me so much. Thank you ❤️
Keep on watching and learning. Hugs. Navajo Grandma
Grandma, I'm doing a report on you for my Religion paper. Love your videos and thank you so much for the beautiful education you give us. Blessings.
I pray it is good. Remember to pray to present and address the needs of your class as you never know whom you can influence for good, or that needs to hear what you have to say. Even your Professor or teacher, they need it too. Hugs. Navajo Grandma
I needed this video. My daughter was in PICU with covid pneumonia and was on a high flow oxygen along with steroids for her lungs. I asked everyone I know to pray for her. I prayed all day everyday I spoke the Promises from the Bible for health, and healing. My daughter is now recovered and we will be going home today. The power of prayer is strong and I’m so grateful. I did what you said and I told her how much she means to me how much joy she brings to be everyday. I have four wonderful children and they are my entire world. I want to thank you for all your videos. My children are from the Paiute tribe and I’m from the Three Affiliated Tribes. God bless you and your family.
My dearest Kimberly, Wow, what an endearing story. I am so thankful your daughter is returning back to full health. It is truly amazing how truth, honesty, prayer, appreciation, Hozho and Ke' does heal. So many are so involved with themselves they lose these internal innate love and endearment we each need for one another. I told my husband before my fiance' died I had pneumonia so bad, and my fiance' had been gone out of state. I missed him so much. When I saw him, I literally was healed instantly. He loved me so much and sadly, he did die. When he died, he did come back to me to tell me how much love he had for me and to let him go as my life would move forward. It was hard but my life did move forward, and here I am teaching and sending you my hugs and love. You are loved and so is your daughter.. Keep up the love, hugs and positivity. Paw paw paw, get rid of the negative, illness, anything and in its place comes positivity, health, love, etc. Navajo Grandma
Thank you. Here I go crying again. I’m so sorry for your loss. You remind me of my aunt Janice, she is another strong native lady.
If you choose to do so. I will help you from my tribe can make medicine bag to protect from illness of this year.your going to need a burlap bag and a red one.

Then light a purpel candel.when it is finish burning down it is ready to use you can either were it on you or keep in your left back pocket. It breaks dont worry it did what its job. Hope this helps you.
@kimberlythompson926 Kimberly, tho it's been 2 years your comment I have reread with the hope of God and all that is positive. I am so humbled by your self expressions. Your honesty. You are a good soul and I again ask you to pray always, you are never forgotten but loved by your Navajo Grandma. I pray that your life is filled with joy and that you know you matter in this life. Love ❤️ & hugs. Navajo Grandma
@jeremyarroyo360 I never thanked you for your kindness to a soul who has had a need. Thank you always even after these years. Hugs from Navajo Grandma
Thank you for sharing all the information you share, not only for this generation but for the future generations. It brought me to tears a bit when you mentioned about being a single mom. I myself am a single mom. Sending hugs.
Dearest Melissa, bless your heart and your energy and your Will and mind. It isn't easy, but when the children are grown, and they are gone, you will look back and see, you did the best for them. Love them, support them by letting them know how much you care and protect them. The blessings come in a circle right back at you. Hold them close, they need this and so do you. Sending my strength, and huge hugs to you. As those are the shoes I once walked in and glad its over, but what strength, wisdom and knowledge I learned about myself, it takes a strong woman, not a mouse. What does that say about you? Love you. Navajo Grandma
Ahhhhhh yes dear grandma!!! The cedar, our kin. I immediately thought of one of my absolute favorite songs. Annie Humphrey- "Winter mornings, coffee, and cedar smoke". It is part of my youtube playlist. Have you heard it? It is a magnificent generational anthem in my opinion. Explains everything we feel in a song during smudge. How we pray for our children how we want them to remember most the smell of our cedar prayers in the air as we remembered our mothers prayers.🌿❤ thank you so much for your teachings and all your love. I am a loving warrior of christ also. We are his hidden ones, his chosen. Thank you for your prayers and wisdom so much. I observe hebrew new year in March and send you all my love and blessings to you and your family. You are a jewel and a daughter of Zion.
Ebony, you are one I would reach out to, cup your beautiful face in gma’s hands, bless you, pray with you, celebrate deity with you because you are so genuine in spirit. May you remain even more amazing, paw paw paw, let in and breathe in all the good vibrations of this blessed life we have. Hugs. Navajo Grandma
@@NavajoGrandma All praises to the most high the great I Am and his beautiful son and holy spirit! I send you all my love grandma!!!
Thank you for such a beautiful and loving video. I hope that all the love and blessings that you send out, will come back to you and your family. Caroline. London, U.K.
Awwww you are so kind! Remember to clarify your way, to use your hands to ruffle your energy. No one needs coffee or energy drinks. These were healthy ways of existence without stimulants. It gave peace, calm, balance & harmony. A state of rest and clarity when you let the negative go. Bless you in your efforts toward balance & harmony. Remember your new lease on life. Start over, forgive yourself & all. You need not shout it to the world, speak it for yourself. It is Holy. Your spirit needs to hear it from your lips, smile, love, serve, choose what builds goodness of the spirit. Live. Hugs, Navajo Grandma
In tears!!! But God is good always! ❤ Suffering sad & remembering so much I wish I could forget. I choose to forgive. From when I fist understood words, from my mother, they were cruel words given with a smile and I suffered without anyone knowing it. My kids and I cared for her through cancer 5 years ago & she was still cruel, but no one around us ever knew. I have times still today where I weep and cry out, I have never heard loving or teaching words from her, but only from my grandma. I miss my grandma so much!!
Thank you for this video! I will do this and believe. I love Jesus so much ❤ this made me smile (& cry good tears) today.
I love you, I appreciate you!!
Terribelle3, what a moving comment you sent to me. I was saddened for you as I too have gone thru stuff like this with my ex husband, my children and people in my church. They do not care to be kind only to those they want, yet in the same token they expect you the one who serves them and the one they stomp on to serve them as if it is our duty. Yet we with kind hearts still serve with love thru the mess. It has affected me thru the years myself, but I am still learning to let it run off like water off a duck's back. Easy to say right? I know. I pray you will watch this video time and time again. You need someone to be on your side and love and give you healing hugs. If I was there I would. I totally understand those painful tears now and then. Next, the part of the smudging is to again release the negativity and say this as you release the negative energy thru the crown of your head say this: "I happily & permanently release all unkind words of hate of any kind from any person. It has no place within me, as I am kind, loving, I have a happy heart, a kind loving heart, I can only find and see and feel goodness for myself and others. Also I forgive myself for paying heed to this negativity which I shall no longer allow within my loving spirit and soul. I desire to be happy, loving, kind and serving. As I do so I shall partake of the bounty of God's plan for me and I shall walk, run and not faint and the angel of death shall pass me by. I shall live with love, tenderness and prayer with gratitude for my Savior Jesus Christ for continually healing me. Amen pah pah pah. Find joy in your loving heart and good soul. You deserve to be happy and loved with kindness. Hugs always from Navajo Grandma. Pray always for peace, beauty, balance and harmony!! This is called Hozho in the Dine' way of life. Love you. Navajo Grandma
Norma G
You are so sweet and thanks for teaching me how to smudg you said to forgive everyone but it's the hardest things to do specially if you're own blood mother was evil to you since in the womb and all you're life 😢😢 ..NORMA G WHEREVER YOU ARE, WHOEVER YOU ARE, I could not find you. Navajo Grandma loves you. I am so sorry about your blood mother and how she treated you and is treating you now. Sometimes, even as it hurts we pray for those who are hurting us, leave it to God. Go and find yourself and become amazing at something that will help you see that you are wonderful, that you matter and that you are needed. Like here with Navajo Grandma. Everyone here loves one another, we are here to say you are loved and we totally understand, and some won't be able to, but no matter, you mean a great deal Norma. G. I send my loving healing hugs to you. Grandma loves you. Know this. I had to put this here for you in hopes you read it. Love you tons. Navajo Grandma
You don't need to smudge, you already have amazing great energy that is sacred within you heart and soul. You need to be teaching us. Thru our trials we become Godly and you are. Humbled by your amazing comment. Love you. Navajo Grandma
I’m just watching this a yr later. Having some massive things at work. Thank you so much. You are a beautiful lady. Your teaching and message is so wonderful.
Well when there is wisdom in what we learn, it is never old or never grows old, it become a legacy and a wisdom for the ages past, present and future. Thank you for watching and remember your new lease on life today. Make your life better by letting go of the personal clutter and learning to forgive yourself first. Pray always. Navajo Grandma
What a beautiful message from a beautiful woman. I do try to always be positive and show my love. Thank you Grandma.☮️💖🎶
Marcey thank you for taking the time to watch this video. Keep those affirmations up and remain strong and wonderful as you are. Hugs always. Navajo Grandma
I sat down to milk my goats and listen to a video on Smudging. My oldest daughter would like to help me smudge, something I do often, and I wanted to learn more to teach her more.
Now I am sitting here releasing so much I didn’t know How to let go of. I do not have much in the way of extended family but have always felt connected to my ancestors. This video filled me with many emotions. I cannot wait to share this with my children. I have 6 of them. we may not have much but we have so much with a little bit extra. We are so blessed. This video has truly made me feel like I will be ok. That I can heal the places in my soul that need it. I release it all. I love you. Thank you, grandma.
What a beautiful comment of releasing the old, the things that keep us down, realizing it, then letting it go. I like you didn't have much either and lately with this pandemic it feels like I am going thru it all again. We were doing so well before and now things are not the same but as we go through the days, thru prayer, thru releasing junk that use to reside within us, that we lighten our load, clear our minds, we gain hope and faith and a desire to be what we so desire and know that we can have success. Maybe not the success in many ways as the world sees it, but within our hearts, our spirit our homes, our individual selves, and a more positive outlook can get you through the days. It should have helped you make a garden, to toil in the soil with joy knowing the seeds germinate and mature then the wonderful fruit you will sow. There is joy is renewing yourself daily with a positive outlook even when you might not have enough, but what you do have you will realize is enough. We are God's children, how would he allow you to go hungry. It is said in Psalms that David speaks this, "I have lived a long life but never in this life have I ever seen a righteous man go hungry." Righteous meaning a humble heart, a kind heart, a forgiving heart, a heart and soul that gives God all power over his or her life and see the miracles of life, the joy and goodness in simplicity, not as the world sees it or knows it but what the spirit knows and gives within our individual selves our individual hearts. Life is good. Even in darkness there is goodness as you become the light and in the light you become the miracle worker lifting and blessing and loving, serving. Life is good. Keep this thought as you continue in this life. Pray always for safety, from sickness and ills, from negativity, empower yourselves with smudging, pure affirmations that is perfect for you individually. Know yourself and treat yourself kindly that it may become an extension to give out for those who need hope and love and service. On and on. Life is good. Hugs and love from Navajo grandma
@@NavajoGrandma my father learned much from his mentor, Eugene B Joe, a sand painting artist from the reservation. My father ended up going down a dark drug filled path I could not follow. But he did teach my some of the old traditions. I have always longed to know more,to be able to utilize the traditional ways and teaching in my everyday and learn pass it on to my children. finding all this wisdom from Navajo grandmas and grandpas has been helping me to heal. To be a better mother and human. I do not want the western medicines way of covering the trauma with a bandaid if you will. I would love the help and guidance of a healer. I never expected to find it on TH-cam. What an amazing world we live in.
Your words of wisdom are very important to me. I am listening. The time you took to respond to me is so appreciated. Thank you, Navajo grandma.
@@hoopnfarm This again is a wonderful comment that brings me joy. When you are ready for change and finally wake up to yourself, now remember few do, that you can move forward, first yourself before you can go beyond that. Clean your own yard first then help others along t he way. This is so important and forgiving yourself is huge in this process. No blame just forgive and accept it in your spirit and soul. When that happens you begin to understand the value of others. As you find how amazing and how precious and how important you are as an individual. That is the epic part of life. Then you value yourself and value others because you again value yourself. How cool is that God given process. I love it. I always say, do not make it hard. Keep it simple. Hugs always from Navajo Grandma
Thank you for your channel. I am Métis Cree and lately have been struggling so much to find balance between traditions/ceremonies and the teachings of the church. My family is Catholic and I have struggled for years with the role Jesus and the Christian God played in the history of First Nations people, I just added the book you recommended to my shopping cart. Thank you for your recommendation I hope it clarifies things for me!
He did walk among us. I have been baptized into a church, but I do believe since we haven't been able to go to church, My testimony of Jesus Christ became my total foundation, not the church building and the people who go there in clicks and snub each other because one has more than the other. It happens in my church all the time. I was always puzzled, hey didn't you teach about Christ on Sunday, why do you think I am a scab now because I am Native? Never understood, but thanks for the pandemic, I realized it is Christ who we worship, not the churches, not the leaders, but Christ as He is literally the son of God. Remember also, there are Bishops, and teachers in the gospel, remember this, no matter how high of a calling they have, know this: "we will not hold any position even if we were the President of the USA, A Prime Minister, the Cardinal, "we will be judged as individuals, as sons and daughters of God, our titles will be nothing when we pass through the veil into the spirit world and when we stand before God." So as pompous as those are who have great callings in churches, boy do they have it coming if they are not living up to their callings that supposedly is to bless the sick and afflicted, help the needy, the homeless, etc. Most people become prideful and disgusting not the leaders they are suppose to be. Sorry, my church is full of these. I haven't gone to church for 4 to 5 months and have never had a greater testimony of Jesus Christ than ever before and even more. I read the scriptures, I pray, I serve my community, I love my family, make amends, repent, and follow Jesus Christ and I do what He did to the best of my ability. For this I love the Pandemic. It defined for me whom we all worship, Jesus Christ the son of God. How absolutely wonderful. Hooray for the pandemic in that sense. While everyone is running back to church, buying new clothes to look better in front of their neighbors, to back bite, to pretend they are saints, etc., I am happily home with my Savior and closer to Him than ever. Now if I know I am needed for some reason to be at church, or to go to the Temple, I will. But not to wear my shiny shoes and look better than others. Sorry, that is all I saw. Sick. But true. I love my Savior, Jesus Christ, I so look forward to seeing him again during the Second Coming. He did walk among us and he taught us how to use nature to bless and heal us and for sustenance. My grandfather taught this to me as his ancestors knew of the 12 apostles and they have Dine' names for them, they describe the crucifixion to the T and and know where our ancestors came from and how they came to this Turtle Island. I know these things I learned from my ancestors to be true, I can not ever deny it. I know Jesus Christ is my Savior, He is the son of God, the Holy Ghost bears witness of all truth to us. They are so important. It is through them we all shall have eternal life. Truly. Amen. My hugs and love to you as you come to yourself. Navajo Grandma
@@NavajoGrandma Thank you for your reply, very beautiful and poetically spoken. Yes, the hypocrites in most churches definitely deter me from attending i just worship on my own terms.. I thank you for your wisdom and kindness
My eyes are burning🔥 listening to you it's making water come out💚✌️🕊️🕊️🦋🦋🌏🦘👣👣👣🌻🌻🌹🌺🦘🌻🌻🌻🦋🦋🦋🦋💥🤍🕊️🕊️👣👣👣👣🌵look up the symbolic meaning of 🌵 cactus..cos your this 🌵 🫧 🌵 xxxx👣🦘🦘🤍💥
You are wonderful and I thought I had answered you already but again, here goes. I so appreciate your heart and who you are. I love reading your expressions of water and what are tears? This is a new year with a New Lease on life and how we are at the helm of our own ship and decide what comes into our lives good or evil. Let's see, hmmm I do believe we want GOODNESS right? Then come on and let's go and have an amazing year!! Love you so. Navajo Grandma
Thank you for this beautiful video/channel you made! I clicked on this video for other perspectives on sage🙏🏽😇💕 I’m glad I’m not the only native that believes in Christ and is able to be one with source! My family (Zuni) shunned me once for believing in Christ and I was homeless, nobody to talk to about how Christ is helping me. But I was able to find my inner self 💖 now I’m able to actually speak & listen to my ancestors / Christ, I am a shaman ❤️🥰 I had to learn everything on my own through experience. I am glad you have this channel to teach other’s to love & be with spirit 😇🙏🏽 keep up the great work ✨ Namaste 🙏🏽
Hi Jaz, boy you have been on a life’s journey. You must be quite the soul and spirit chosen to heal and bless others. Interesting. Gma has been cussed out by native Americans for my belief in Christ. Sad their grandparents never taught them how our native American ancestors walked and talked with Christ. We knew of Him long before any boats or Christians set foot here on this land. Thus those who holler that I entertain colonialism shows their lack of personal ancestral knowledge. Thank you for your wonderful comment and your testimony and faith in our Savior and Redeemer. This faith and knowledge sets you apart from the world. Hugs from Navajo Grandma
Yes, it has been quite a journey I can tell you that! Lol. Still a long journey. I’m sorry you were yelled at, nobody should ever be treated in a harsh manner. I’m glad u got through it ❤️ we are both strong women with our battle suits and will keep fighting for Christ! 💪🏽 thank you once again for your love grandma, as we say in Zuni (wó wó) 🤗💕 many hugs & blessings to you & your family! 🙏🏽✨Namaste 🥰
@@jazdelamor KESHHI, Grandma loves you Jaz. I guess I didn’t tell you, my paternal grandfather (my NALI) married a Zuni, thus my Dine’ clan is Naashte’zhi which means Zuni. She was my Bizhi who died when my dad was 2 years old in 1920’s. Gpa (NALI) remarried to a Dine’ woman my Bizhi whom raised me and is my heart. Just an fyi. I was there at Zuni when the old pueblos were still intact, just like Taos Pueblo, Jemez Pueblo use to be. No more. I am grateful that my eyes saw or have seen when the pueblos were still the way they were anciently. Beautiful in their regalia on a daily basis, speaking their language, singing, keeping with traditions that were treated as holy as they were meant to be. I ran thru the streets and played with other Zuni children, so fun as well as in Jemez Pueblo and Taos Pueblo as they once were. I long for those days when feast days wasn’t just eating, it was the kind acts of giving to all and strangers who came to participate. It was a form of family you found and those days are now long gone. Now, Pueblos chase you out and yell at you if you walk their streets, throw their dish water or bucket of water thrown on strangers, nasty words said in English, even when you buy their wares. It never was like that. Maybe in my innocence I saw and believed that kindness would always remain. As back then the pueblos knew my NALI & Bizhi for her weaving & trading. We were always welcomed in Zuni as my fathers mother came from there, now folks shun you to talk to you. It’s just gone. I have always treated these pueblos with love, I have gone to the homes of the posterity of those gone brought meat, fruit, corn as the corn fields are small now and only for their families, I bring chili, fruits that are beautifully grown by true growers that are not riddled with chemicals. Yet they laugh at me when I tell them of their grandparents who were welcoming n traded with my NALI. They take it and stare at me as if I am stupid for doing this kindness. Once I asked if I could purchase an oven bread in remembrance of when I was a child, how wonderful it tasted, I was told, “this is for our family, we do not sell it” as they have the pile of food I reverenced to give them in front of them. I left and wept in the car. I do not go there anymore. We drive thru I tell gpa about where I use to play as we drive thru all these pueblos and leave the pueblos to themselves. How utterly sad. I miss the old days. They say toward the end of time before our Savior returns many hearts will become hardened and cold and I see that in the present horrible Biden Government in my Navajo Nation and abroad thru out the lands and other countries. But thru it all I seek to be a good woman filled with the love and giving with kindness as I was shown by our ancestors, grandparents of old in the pueblos and eastern Navajo Agency in NM. We need to be a kind representative for and of Christ as our grandparents were. So long of a response but I am sure you understand unlike most. Hugs always from Navajo Grandma…Ahehee. Elahkwa.
Thank You so so much for all of your Prayers for Anything in this Wire Wide or World God Blessing you too 😊😇🤞🌞😍🙏😊
You are so welcome and yes you and all are so important as we continue living in this world. Although it is full of problems, normal and made up and the Communism encroaching, all need our attention, our prayers and for us to stand up for truth. We need to support what is truth and what is Godly, not the secular which brings Greed, Power and Control and it gets out of hand very very easily when a person or leaders become filthy selfish and they go down the road to the bottom pit and take many with them. May we remember to be strong, to stand for right like our CHIEFTANS did in days of old. They called for all Tribal Nations to stand together, it is time we do now. Their words ring strong and clear right now. Amen. Navajo Grandma
You are more wonderful than wonderful
Grandma.
Ok who's paying you???
I wish I could sit next to you and learn. This is the next best thing. Thank you very much. I am teaching my daughter the words. I plan to pass down this knowledge to my daughter and my nieces. My grandmother taught us a little bit and now your videos are such a blessing to us. Thank you
Welcome Aubrie, you are sitting next to me, as it were, Grandma is teaching you the skills to be strong in character, in spirit and to release the negative and find the happiness and peace we all desire. Thank you for watching my granddaughter. Hugs. Navajo Grandma
Thank you so much. I wanted to simply smudge my home and negative thoughts and memories. I now feel an abundance of appreciation of my situation that it's not all hopeless and that I'm loved. Thank you Xie Xie beautiful women ❤
Well Chris, yes, even if you didn't smudge, you can still created the energy of goodness, healing with faith, you can move your energy that you are made of and bring positive vibrations to fill within you and throughout your home. Pray always, that in itself is self empowering and do not forget this. Prayer with faith creates miracles that have not ceased. I know you can. Hugs from Navajo Grandma
I feel so blessed to stumble across your videos. Thank you for sharing. You are truly such a beautiful person.
Thank you again. Thank you as well for watching, learning and supporting my channel. Navajo Grandma
I love you so much Navajo grandma ❤️🙏many blessings to you and your family!!!
Anna, smudging is also one blessing we have that will not change and can only be the best for our body, spirit and soul. That includes our intellect and all around us. Love you always too. Navajo Grandma
@@NavajoGrandma Thank you so much for sharing. My great grandma was an orphan, taken from her people and raised in a mission in New Mexico. She was worked as a maid by the missionaries her whole life ... even in some historical texts are her photos where she has very short hair and wearing an apron and very old fashioned looking boots..until she was 16 or 18 old enough to leave. She made a best friend there who was her life time sister and they always lived next door to each other wherever they went ( the two girls bonded but must have been so scared at times). My grandmother did some blessings too that her mother tried to remember but I did not remember all the specifics. Thank you for sharing ❤️🙏much love and gratitude ❤️ I watch all your videos. God Bless you👼
@@annapacheco2842 What an honorable great grandmother. Make sure you keep those records, pictures and information so that when you go thru your trials you can read, look at and be strengthened. What an honor that you have this information. There is a great purpose for you to have this information. You are a choice soul and spirit. Remain as strong as your great grandmother and know you are needed, your are wonderful and you are loved. Loved greater by no one but by your great grandmother who is watching over you. She had this given to you because she knows your heart. She loves you more than you know. Remember this. Hugs with honor. Navajo Grandma
Thank you so much grandma! Your words of wisdom are always empowering. Creator is good!!! Yes, we are blessed to be here and walking this Earth. Everyday is a gift! Have a beautiful day and may your family keep bringing happiness to others. Have a great New Year 🥳 🎉

Thank you, Grandma. Does the juniper need to dried first? Thank you so much for this 🪶
Susan, no it doesn't but if it is it will fire up and just be careful. Get it on fire for the smoke, not the fire. Douse the flames and let it smoke. Thank you for asking. Happy Valentine's Day. Navajo Grandma
@@NavajoGrandma great to know, thanks. We have a lot of Juniper here in Colorado, too. Happy Valentines Day 💝
You are so beautiful!! THANK YOU for your loving wisdom!! I wish you peace.❤🙏
You are so welcome and thank you Diana. Remember you can bring positive energy to yourself and have a new lease on life daily if you want. Life is wonderful if you allow it, forgive yourself and love yourself first. That is the foundation is the best start no matter how old we are. Love you so. Navajo Grandma
I love this video...I can feel the good positive energy from watching this video. I love your energy - makes me smile & joy.
I'm so glad to hear this from you. It is so important for us to smudge or to do relaxation techniques to give us a rejuvenation needed and hope. There is so much energy around you and you are made of energy and very holy vibrations and when they are interrupted things go south. Bringing them back thru smudging is vital for our health. Hope you understand. Navajo Grandma
I agree Navajo grandma ❤ u for saying keep life simple. Mom would go outside work it out outside and let wind blow on herself, she said release outside.
And thank you butterflymina42, what a beautiful expression by your mother to go outside to release all that much we bring into our thoughts, our sadness, our hurts and pains, plus all that negativity that comes from others upon us when we don't even realize it happens wherever we go. We need to always go to places that are good and my Nali always say to "stand in Holy Places." I love that dumping all that outside is beautiful and so profound. I love all of it. You teach me along with what I teach you with my videos. Always remember you are amazing and wonderful and matter. Hugs from Navajo Grandma
Thank you for your wonderful emotional blessing ❤

Hi there from Atlanta! Hey we do research there too. Thank you for subscribing and what a mysterious picture. Hugs. Navajo Grandma
Divine timing me finding you today. Thank you for sharing your medicine.
Well it is wonderful for you to find Navajo Grandma. I am so happy you are here and in our Navajo Grandma family. You are loved here, you matter and you are needed, "hows that? I love this smudging video and yes, that is how we smudge with our hands in the Navajo Nation using Cedar or Juniper. The Plains indians use white sage, etc. You don't even have to use anything, just use your hands and ruffle that yulky junk out of you and give yourself the good energy you need. I am so happy to hear from you. Hugs and loves to you from Navajo Grandma
Thank You Grandma!!!
You are sure welcome and thank you for watching and learning. Hugs always. Navajo Grandma
Grandma as long as we have you we will always have a reason to be happy.
Now that is a great responsibility. But grandma is willing to accept it as without any of you who are grandma's youtube family, "I would not exist," thus how important are you?? Hmmm let me count the ways. Navajo Grandma
how beautiful, when you speak of your Grandpa I fill up with tears, he was a very wise and beautiful man of the Great Spirit you were so bless to have him! and he reminds me of my Grandpa too, he held me on his knees and prayed out loud over the land and blessed us and everything around, and gave great thanksgiving to God early in the cold mornings as we looked out the large window at the snow we didn't have a lot but we had each other and so much love and the love of Jesus. We love you Navajo Grandma! and all of God's beautiful tribes! The Great Spirit's Apache girls!
Sounds familiar and with our dearly beloved grandpa’s. Memories that tug at our heart strings but give us powerful strength. They are still alive in the spirit world and are still fully aware of us. What Godly knowledge to inspire and move us forward. Hugs. Navajo Grandma
My younger Sister made me a what I call my smudging travel kit back in 1984 for my 20th birthday. I have carried it with me all over the world.
Well if one day it wears out, you have your precious hands, paw, paw, paw. Love you so. Navajo Grandma
@@NavajoGrandma So true. much love and respect for You and what Your doing here.
You shine like the SUNSHINE 🌞
Thanks 👍 For shinning 🌟 upon us All.
Love you 🥰💋💕🌹🌟
Wow, thank you and thank you for viewing this video which is so pertinent to us all on a daily basis. Life is happier without negativity. Smudging hugs to you. Navajo Grandma
I am honored and appreciate you very much so.
Thank you. May you always smudge the negativity that is around us or that which we invite and those that are evil determined to bring us down. Remain knowing your new lease on life, make this day & the coming days excellent, honorable and constructive. Know and always remember you are needed, loved and matter in this world. Pray always. Navajo Grandma
Thank you, This has helped with forgiveness and heartbreak.
muertocito, "thank you for watching and learning. You are a precious teachable soul to take these teachings and to apply it. You are one of a kind and blessed. Life is not easy as you know & learning experience come & go, Its how we walk thru the muck that we learn even with forgiving & heartbreak. In the end, we always look back from the pain & tears, to realize it did pass, and we did make it through. Tho at times it might bring a tear now and then, it means your heart is real, you are wonderful and you care & full of being human & goodness. Then you are able to walk & move forward for other many blessings that await you. We do not go thru pain for nothing, do you understand? There is a blessing awaiting you more than you know. Run to it and do not let go and stand straight & tall with strength in knowing you are wonderful, needed here around Navajo Grandma's fire, keep yourself warm here and know you are needed & loved. Hugs to you and I salute your dignity. Remain strong. Hugs always. Navajo Grandma

Thank you @Navajo Grandma for sharing this wonderful video, your ancestral customs, and spiritual teachings. Blessings to you and your family.
What a kind compliment of Hozho. Thank you so much as grandma needed to hear this. Love and hugs. Navajo Grandma
You mentioned Cedar, I am from the Cedar Valley, Iowa. I miss the River
The statement regarding using Cedar to smudge with is what I was referring to. If there is Cedar where you are from then go gather some. Grandma
Love you Navajo grandma and your other videos also chi miigwech
Thank you for watching, love you so. Hugs. Navajo Grandma
Possibly the very best video I have ever seen
Hi there Tara & Sky, thank you for that wonderful comment of Hozho. You are so kind. I do pray that you will continue to realize that our need to clarify our physical and spiritual bodies, our senses, our spirit thru vital positivity. That we thru forgiving ourselves and being positive do heal ourselves, create longevity, goodness in health and well being, and know we do have a new lease on life as it should be in our hearts and minds at all times as we do what is best and good for ourselves and others. Sorry about that long sentence. Navajo Grandma sends her positive hugs and goodness. I hope you both have a place to spend Thanksgiving. If not, cook for each other and remember your blessings, pray always. Be blessed with family that you create even if it is only the both of you. Thankful hugs again. Navajo Grandma
@@NavajoGrandma Thank you so much Navajo Grandma. 💖 Your words went right through my spirit and healed me. You are such a beautiful healer I truly feel Creator sent me here. I so honored and blessed you took precious time out of your day to respond to me. This made my day. Speaking of smudging to get rid of negative, I was wondering if you had an opinion on people with visions. I spent years as someone who used a Tarot deck of cards to help people with positive messages of healing. When I began to go back to my Christian faith, I gave it up as I did not want to offend Creator. Many people told me I helped them more than their doctor. My mother tells me that this is my gift from the Creator. I was wondering if you had any insight on this matter. Thank you Navajo Grandmother, I am so thankful that you are here on Earth.
@@TaraandSky First of all, Tarot cards although you used it for good is not what you should ever entertain again. Yes, the Creator does not approve. I once use to go get my readings and did that a few times and I learned through very sad experience that it was wrong. Never again after that. My opinion. Regarding visions, I don't know if you are seeing things or are you hearing or feeling things before they happen, not sure. I would rather call it being a gift given as your Mother explained to you. When used, our gifts can literally heal. It is a power of the Creator, some have it some don't. Some recognize it and some have no idea they have it as they are blind to goodness. Some hide it from themselves as they have experienced something tragic not realizing it is healing. So I suggest you treasure this gift of healing, it is powerful. We are all given certain gifts and we need to recognize them. Build upon those gifts and develop them. The world needs healers right now, the world needs direction thru holiness, to remember there is truly a Creator in charge, that all we have is not ours but His and our lives and all we have is borrowed. When we take our last breath we take nothing but relationships, our intellect, our gifts as treasures of eternity. You are empowered with gifts, develop them with prayer, be grateful and use with reverence and your power to heal will be needed in the days that are coming. And I promise you will be needed from the darkness and evil that is coming to try to destroy all that is good. Its like the Hobbit movies, the Jedi's and the Avengers. These are examples that I know you can understand. They each possessed gifts and used them and together they became strong. Teach others about their gifts and use yours always. You will discover how as you are prayerful. Never be afraid of your gifts. As you develop one then more will come. Lastly, you can ask for more gifts but only in reverence and with an honest heart that it will serve others and lastly serve you. I may have overly spoken but I think you will understand. Now go and use your gifts. Never be ashamed of them. Don't flaunt it either. Do not speak of it as evil will try to make you prideful, just don't speak of your gifts, only in your prayers. Use it wisely when you know you need to or can. I have many gifts, I just use them without telling others about them as they are reverent gifts. But powerful. Prayer empowers you even more. Remain prayerful. Hugs. Navajo Grandma
Thank you Navajo Grandma for sharing this wisdom and recording these blessings for all of us. We love you ❤️
What kind words of Hozho Belinda, I pray when you need to smudge you will take the time to make sure you define what it is you need first then smudge in whatever fashion you want, and know no matter what or how, you can create positive energy to strengthen you. Hugs always from Navajo Grandma
Thank you for that beautiful name you called me. ❤️ I love to cast my cares on our Precious LORD YESHUA/JESUS when I'm stressed. I will take your advice and think specifically about what I'm letting go of and releasing to Him. Paw paw paw.
@@belindadunne4312 if I could I would scoop you up and hug you. Hozho means beauty, peace, balance and harmony. Hugs from grandma

We never met grand ma. But great spirit and you said it all. Wish American natives listen to you because they don’t care about what I say.
Your statement is more true than you know. So many don't listen and suffer. But you have a new lease on life and you be your better self and smile. pah pah pah turn the negativity into positives and heal. Love you so. Navajo Grandma
Thank you ol'wise one. I needed too see this today. Your videos bring me so much joy. I am Apache and Yaqui. My love too you and your family. I would love to learn so much from you. I'm so appreciative of your videos. Im lucky enough to still have my 85 year old grandma who teaches me the ways of our people and now I've found you. There are not many left. I have 3 sons who I wish to pass these things down too.
Well thank you for taking the time to watch and learn and retain for your boys. This was wonderful. Navajo Grandma

Love from Valentina from Holland ❤❤❤
Hi there Holland!! Thank you Valentina. You are from a place I so wished I could see. Hearing that story of the little boy who put his finger in the dam to save his town always made me cry and his courage and bravery to me was beyond heroic. True or not, it was so powerful. I always wanted to be brave and never fear anything after that story. Thank you for the wind mills and how beautiful it must be there. I only see Holland from the memories of my childhood. Hugs across the great waters to you Valentina!! Loves from Navajo Grandma
Thank you for sharing!
My pleasure! Paw paw paw, the better way of enunciation but remember to get rid of that negativity and bring in the positive by brushing your energy up and away. Then use the negative ions with juniper and or sage and wipe out the positive which is not good. A twist of the mind but it is true. Science backs this up. LOL!! Hugs from Navajo Grandma
Thank you
YOUR NEW LEASE ON LIFE STARTED!! NOW RUN WITH IT, TAKE A DEEP BREATH, ITS A NEW DAY, A NEW LIFE FULL OF CHOICES & TALENTS, INTELLIGENCE & BALANCE AND HARMONY!! CONGRATS!!! GMA
Thank You for the Wisdom and this Lesson learned this day. Now I know how to use the White Sage I have. The Power of Faith and Positive Energy are a Priceless Gift you share so freely, it is So Beautiful. Pa Pa sending you Love and Many Blessings from my soul to yours ❤️
My dear Anne, what a lovely soul you are. I feel you are a beautiful spirit. Continue in your journey with positivity within yourself so it eminates to others and gives light and joy so many need in these times and coming. Love and big hugs. My heart is comforted by you. Thank you (axhehee). Navajo Grandma
I thank you so much for this video. It was so refreshing and brought me back to my journey and peace within. You are truly a blessing. I'm glad I was lead to you, I felt my grandmother's spirit leading through your words. Thank you🙏🏾🥰
Crystal what a beautiful comment. It is a blessing to smudge. My mother was very sickly and she used juniper and used her hands. She depended upon this and always felt better afterwards. Why what she had was chronic always puzzled me. I know it was a very psychological trauma because of the death of my sister. So yes, this is a wonderful way to be rid of negativity and to replace it with goodness. Always remember as we do this, we also give ourselves a new lease on life. That is what I offer to you. We all need permission and that permission will remain always. Each day is a new day of goodness and mercy, forgiveness of self and others. There is hope in this, reverence and healing. Wash away all negativity and you will find joy and happiness and healing. The road of Hozho: peace, beauty, balance and harmony. Hugs to you always. Happy to hear you felt the presence of your grandmother and you should. She loves you so much more as she is also watching over you always. Happy thoughts and happy truths. Navajo Grandma
I pray a lot through the day
My NALI would have praised your name. That is what he taught me. He said, you pray when you rise out of bed with thanksgiving, you pray w gratitude when you walk, when you wash yourself, blessing your meal, in everything. I said but Shi Nali that means I will be praying all day. He said, yes, you got it. It will protect you, strengthen you, teach you faith, give you direction and all you need the day thru. Mary, you are spot on. What a good soul you are. Hugs. Navajo Grandma
Love you!!
Awwww, thank you so much. I love that you are receptive and see why its important to ruffle away negativity as there is more than enough in our lives and we need to be healthy spiritually and in every way possible. You have a new lease on life now run with it and be whom you truly are meant to be. You are needed and thank you for this comment. Hugs from Navajo Grandma
Thank you for sharing
You bet! We all need to cleanse our body and spirit more now than before. Dealing with life and more needs the Hozho effect: peace, beauty, balance and harmony. I pray you do really contemplate that we each need a New Lease on life, Science too has blind studies that show ruffling your energy heals and you have that ability to give your body the vibrations made of energy with your hands. Some use feathers but for the better part it is done with your hands. I am always so thankful I was raised watching my dear mother who was sick do this and she seemed to have a shot in the arm and would almost immediately feel that cleansing and strength to carry on. You could actually see that physically. Because she was anxious from her sickness she would walk away from our home and it hurt me so much. So when she was with us I would use my hands and ruffle her energy and she would wake up feeling good she would say, and I was so happy. Then I would rub her feet and hands, arms and brush her hair with the Be'aazhoo and she would be so happy. This is one of my testimonials on a daily basis using it in so many ways. Hugs from Navajo Grandma
Thank you for your thoughts and love may the creator of life bless you and family in the four directions ..Amen

Hi Grams, my old handmade dream catcher from Utah always hangs in the nearest window to my bed since decades in many different homes of mine. It has a beautiful view over me and Korfu right now. I am not religious, but I believe my dream catcher protects me in some way. The geometric pattern of it is also very intriguing and makes me happy.
My dear Garlic breath, Grandma loved your comment. Dream catchers are beautiful such are the artful designs of a spider's web. The intention is made to catch that which is not desirable in your dreams, to protect your sleep, so your body receives rejuvenation, peace, and comfort. Thank you for putting that in just the right place for you to look upon and be reminded that it does work and really has its relevance in your life. Though you seem to always mention you are not religious, that is not what you are saying, what you might be saying is this: I don't go to church, I don't do the sacrament, the Holy things considered by being at church, maybe I don't pray often, but I do believe in God & Jesus Christ. I think inside that kind heart and healing heart and in your healing soul, you know the truth. If you don't I tell you, you will meet the truth in the end. I pray you will say to Him, I did know you, but my life didn't exactly stream with your teachings and I lived my life the way I wanted. I have regrets and I know He will understand. Just wait, as you grow older you will see what it is that I mean that is sober. I pray we all live to come to ourselves in knowing who our Creator is. Your beautiful description was a perfect starter to Grandma's day. I want to thank you because my life is busy and I am grateful. Continue to see the good things in your life as you cast your eyes upon this dream catcher and know you are safe & protected even in this. Grandma sends her hugs and loves across the great waters. You should see New Mexico now as fall is coming upon us, the fields are giving their last crops, the corn stalks are starting to dry losing the lush green, the rivers are getting more and more cold, the air is also getting crisp but still very comfortable, although the noon sun is very hot then the cool calms it down now sooner than when we had hot spells. The moon shines ever so bright at night, the coyotes still howl out in the desert, the juniper trees stand stoic and look millennials old but just beautiful, people are harvesting and selling gorgeous melons, cantaloupes, squash, bright tomatoes for salsa, bright green jalapenos, the smell of corn in the air, and the desert just as gorgeous still green with beautiful cactus flowers & berries I love to eat. Its a desert alright, but beautiful. I can only imagine rolling hills where you are maybe. Have a happy day. Great comment and have another video finally out this morning. Hugs from Navajo Grandma
Thank you 🙏 ❤ blessings
Yes thank you as well and hope this is a blessing for you to understand why we need to dump our negativity and cleanse ourselves, our spirits not only for greater health, calm, comfort and peace but it is a blessing towards walking in beauty: "peace, beauty, balance and harmony." We all need that and thru smudging and being prayerful these beget goodness in our lives. Hugs to you with love. Navajo Grandma
Thank you for guidance. It is needed so much.

The negative ions attract positivity .... That's why it works ... Negative always attracts positive and vice versa. So we don't want positive ions attracting negative 🙏🏻
I believe Gma stated that afterwards as you are correct. Navajo Grandma
@@NavajoGrandma yes I believe so as well, I always type while watching, so you said it right after in the video 💗 your knowledge and wisdom is profound Dear Grandma 🙏🏻 all respect to you

Grandma, please pray for Heather of Kneady Homestead. She and her children recently went through horrible trauma. They were all in a car accident the other driver was 4x legal limit drunk. The husband/daddy, Matt, was killed.
Oh dear, how awfully sad. My husband and I just wept as we prayed for the whole family and Matt. I asked Matt to tell Heather his love for her and to that he will now have a chance to watch over his children. I prayed that Matt will pray for his family as well. I know he will. He now knows who Jesus Christ is and His God. He wasn't ready but he understands now I know this. Thank you for allowing us to know and giving us the privilege to pray. I know Heather will be taken care of while she cares for her children. I know this. Tell her to pray always for strength in dealing with this situation. The clouds will part and the sun will shine again knowing Matt is watching over them. Such precious blessings. It is a true trauma. I am so sorry. If you see Heather if that is her name, tell her Navajo Grandma is praying for her and her children. Please tell her. Thank you for sharing. Blessings to all of you.
@@NavajoGrandma Thank you Grama.

Navajo Grandmother, can you please tell us your take on why matches should be used vs a lighter?
Matches can be safer and more environmentally friendly than lighters for a number of reasons, including: Safer burning time, matches burn for a shorter time than lighters, which can be safer if used accidentally.
Less impact on the environment matchsticks are made from natural elements and decompose easily, while lighters are made from metals and plastics and contain harmful chemicals and gases. Reduced risk of unintentional fires Safety matches only ignite when struck on the designated surface, which reduces the risk of accidental fires.
Easy to use Matches are simple and quick to use in almost any conditions.
However, refillable gas lighters, like Zippos, can be a better option than disposable lighters. This might not cover everything but some pros and cons. Navajo Grandma

Love this!! I really needed to hear and see this today grandma 🧡 would you happen to know where I can get juniper or sage? I know some sell it but I heard it's not suppose to be sold, only given to you. If you could please point me in the right direction, I would really appreciate it!

Paw, paw, paw, turn your negatives into positives in your life. How wonderful. Navajo Grandma
Everything was great except bless your enemies. I defend against and counterattack my enemies. Self preservation is the first law of nature.
You know, goodness and giving out peace, beauty, balance and harmony is more healthy than yes, to slay your enemies. We all have them, but there is wisdom that I was taught that I shared with you and you will understand this when you get older older. Thus I am sharing what goodness and virtues that you might not be taught or being taught, and we teach one another. This is the way of the Native Americans. I promise you that you will not find love and kindness hating or getting even with your enemies. We all have many but what is better to pray for them or tearing them down? Which is healthier for you? Truly when you see it thru wisdom you will find that it is better to choose the moral road. Then again, its the road you choose. The consequences can be rough and hard, it can also be with peace and calm. Walk away and bless them is more powerful. But again when you are in danger and did not cause it, yes by all means fight. Be wise. Hugs from Navajo Grandma
I love you live long life
And I will with your kind Hozho. Navajo Grandma
Thank you again and again!! Navajo Grandma
I have a hard time letting go. I always say let it go but it's not easy
1 - Make the choice. The first step is to remember that we do have a choice in letting go. 2 - Write it down. 3 - Stop blaming. 4 - Live in the present. 5 - Stop replaying the tape. 6 - Cry it out. 7 - Channel the energy into doing something good. 8 - Release the endorphins(run, jog, work out, to release the negativity, with a friend or the ones you trust. Then write down all of what you have control of and make short and long term goals you can measure to move on. Eat healthy, sleep well & comfortable, take your healthy vitamins, drink lots of water. Pray always, God is there to help too, stop relying only on you. Remember Navajo Grandma loves you and is your cheerleader. Why would I write these things down for you if I haven't already learned these and it works!! Hugs always. Navajo Grandma
@@NavajoGrandma Thank you for this amazing advice!!!!! You are very wise as it sounds like you have been through difficulties as well. We all have issues. I'm such an empath and when I see suffering I suffer. It builds up to a terrible level.. I will work harder at all the things you wrote about. Thanks
@@cheri7054 It sounds like you take on the problems of others which are probably sad, heart breaking and just suffering, etc. It is good to have a heart for others, but the best counsel to obey is to know that others do suffer and that it is given to them, not you. What you do is get on your knees in your bedroom, in your car or wherever you are and say a prayer for the person or persons. Then you need to feel you did something so great for them, "you allowed God to help them." What a blessing you give. Then you ask for comfort for yourself and go jog, go see a friend, move away from the sadness, it is not yours. Be careful to not indulge in people's pain too much because it can hurt you emotionally, psychologically, and health wise, etc. Learn to have empathy but through God and send your blessings of strength to that person or what ever their needs are. If you can help monetarily then do it but don't give your savings away. You need emotional boundaries and good affirmations when you smudge to send love, give love out, or bless others while you give yourself the goodness of smudging as well. I know you can do this. I wish grandma could just give you a big fat hug right now and thank you for being a good soul, a kind soul, a loving soul with a kind spirit in your concern for others. But you care for Cheri now and relax and grandma will tell you how to do relaxation techniques you can do anywhere to not feel overwhelmed. Grandma loves you so. Navajo Grandma
@@NavajoGrandma Thanks you Navajo Grandma!!!! I also have my own pain as well that I'm dealing with. Financial stain and loneliness.. It's hard to make and keep friends. I don't feel loved. My older brother avoids me my younger brother is mentally ill
🌿💖 Wonderful and inspiring video, and you look radiant in your environment.✨ With all the folks voicing concern about over-harvesting white sage I started cleansing with dried bits of local juniper berry that grows by our home, and dried mugwort. Love their smells and tingly feelings my body gets when the sacred smoke passes over the skin. Yummy! Since I can't bring cleansing smoke into the clinic where I do healing practice I started using an Aura Smudge spray that has the essence of sage oil combined with cleansing prayer b/t patients. Haven't had anyone complain or get allergic reaction to it so far - it's subtle. Warmest wishes, thanks again for your helpful videos and lovely energy. Maybe you'll let me adopt you as my grandma-on-earth? My Grandmas have crossed over and I know they'd approve. :)
Well this is a good idea about the smudge spray, never have tried that. Interesting. It is always good to use what is within your environment and just because the Sioux use white sage doesn't mean you have to. Look around and see what is within your environment. That is why the Navajo people use juniper, cedar and sage. By the way, when you become a subscriber, you automatically become my grand child and I become your grandmother. I have so many grandchildren it brings me such joy!! Hugs from Navajo Grandma
