Description: This Introduction to Living in a Good Way provides a framework for the student to apply an asset-based approach to support living in community in a good way. With particular attention to Indigenous community, the origins of trauma introduced through the colonial enterprise are explored as well as ways in which this trauma continues to manifest in the present on a variety of levels. The importance of ceremony, re-connection to the land and traditional ways of healing will be discussed and students will have opportunity to experience ceremony for personal formation.
