Foundation for Indigenous Recovery and Development Australia

Foundation for Indigenous Recovery and Development Australia We have done it with our Ancestors and our Elders who follow the Law and you can do it too...you can live happy and well lives full of peace, joy and serenity.

FIRDA is a NFP Charity First Nations organisation providing gatherings & workshops on Aboriginal Spirituality Law Culture Women’s Business Recovery Services.Recovery & Transformation to Whole Wellness -Cultural, Emotional, Mental, Spiritual, Ecological The Foundation for Indigenous Recovery & Development Australia was founded by Tjanara Goreng Goreng supported by two other amazing Murri women from

Queensland ( our home country) Debra Bennett and Marj Droste in 2000. Suported by our Circle of Elders including Uncle Bob Randall, Auntie Flo Watson and Auntie Mary Graham FIRDA has the vision of breaking the cycle of generational dysfunction and trauma from acculturation and colonisation and its effects ( abuse, addiction, violence, poverty, powerlessness, su***de, mental and emotional health disorders) in THIS generation so that Aboriginal people return to their powerful spiritual place which was their true path prior to colonisation. Through experience we have broken the cycle in our generation through the practice of our Law, our spiritual lives, using ceremony and medicine hand in hand with the benefits of 'migloo' culture such as therapy, alternative medicine, yoga practice, meditation and Dadirri and any method which produces results in our wholistic wellness process. We share the message of hope for recovery with all Aboriginal people and all Indigenous people all around the world - but particularly with our own - so that you all know that it IS POSSIBLE TO RECOVER. ASK US HOW..We'll help you find your way back and your way to recovery.

Attended this workshop with Dr Standing Eagle Baez curated by the Australian Indigenous Pyschologist Association of which I'm a member yesterday in Sydney - it was a very interesting event and I learned a lot and saw many parallels with our cultural work... he sometimes comes to our Uni ANU and talks for our Indigenous Health Team's work and hopefully he'll be there this year at our Racism Symposium in November
