Traditions

In Yarn 3, Melanie shares many stories of traditions and culture from her traditional homelands and her beliefs, with fellow yarners, about how ‘healing self and systems, that’s how we are going to get to where we’re trying to go.’ In this series our yarners share many of the sources behind their ideas. We hope you are curious and will value these links to sources and our invitation to explore the wider context of their conversation.
