What if healing meant more than just medicine? What if it meant reconnecting with culture, land, and spirit?
In this episode, Quanah Yellow Cloud, a mental health practitioner from the Oglala Lakota Nation, shares his vision for blending Indigenous healing practices with modern psychiatric care. He advocates for cultural humility, community engagement, and a relational approach that sees patients as “relatives” rather than cases. By emphasizing balance between mind, body, spirit, and environment, Quanah offers a powerful model for more holistic and inclusive care.
Tune in as Quanah Yellow Cloud shares how Indigenous knowledge can transform the way we approach mental health, community care, and the future of healing.
