Healing is a holistic journey deeply grounded in the principles of Winangay—to know, to hear, and to understand. It encompasses every aspect of well-being, weaving together the physical, emotional, spiritual, and cultural. True understanding of healing comes through lived experience, reflective practice, and meaningful relationships. It is not something that can be assembled from fragments of information or claimed through surface-level knowledge.

For First Nations people, healing is intrinsically tied to cultural values and cannot be learned solely from books, academic study, or digital platforms. Unsafe practices that lack cultural grounding risk causing further harm, breaking the sacred cycles of connection and trust. Healing within the spirit of Winangay calls for authentic, face-to-face engagement with people and Country, honouring the wisdom of Elders, community, and the land. Only through this deep relational approach can the true essence of healing be understood and shared.

Mudhay (Possum) skin work shop. The women from Tribal Warrior Aboriginal CorporationHOME program created their own possum skin skin designs recording their own journeys, tribes and clans to keep and pass on through out their families. Each woman selected their own Coolamon which our director Rob Young beautifully carved. This work shop is special discussing cultural matriarchal significances. Whilst gifting the women with their own cultural artefacts and knowledge to revitalise and empower themselves and other clan and tribe members as well as future generations.
