Another amazing 2021 Wellness Changemaker, Jordan Marie Daniel.
Indigenous women are murdered at a rate 10 times higher than other ethnicities. So, in 2019, Jordan Marie Brings Three White Horses Daniel ran the Boston Marathon with a red handprint painted over her mouth to bring attention to Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW). Jordan said a prayer at each mile for a different woman who was silenced due to violence. Since then, Daniel has consistently continued to organize prayer runs—notably, she ran 30 miles on Truthsgiving this past November—to bring awareness and attention to MMIW and Black Lives Matter. Through her organization Rising Hearts, Daniel is continuing to push for intersectional racial, social, economic, and environmental justice. Weekly, she organizes an Indigenous Wellness Through Movement series to elevate Native voices and decolonize white-centered wellness.
Join Rising Hearts, Indigenous relatives & allies through movement as we connect with our bodies and learn what decolonizing wellness means and looks like.
The purpose of this program is to offer more accessible, virtual sessions every month for everyone to attend and to learn from Indigenous wellness instructors, allies, & advocates.
Together with friends and allies in the wellness community, we will share our voices and wellness practices.
Through these sessions - we hope to further continue building community and allyship.
Every session offers a donation-based option, to support the instructor, the program, website, and organizations they are a part of or support.
