Ancestral Lineage Healing
As I’ve worked to decolonize myself and the healing work I do with others, the role of the ancestors has become central to helping to transform and interrupt patterns of multi-generational trauma, un-resolved grief, and the relational and cultural disconnection many feel.
Non-dogmatic Healing
Ancestral Lineage Healing is a non-dogmatic healing arts modality. The approach is based upon an animist framework which means that humans are part of a larger web of consciousness that includes our ancestors. Ancestral Lineage Healing was developed by Dr. Daniel Foor who also founded Ancestral Medicine (Ancestral Medicine: Rituals for Personal and Family Healing, 2017).
You may also access our book Ancestral Wisdom: Sacred stories of contact, healing, and care, an anthology written by practitioners of this work. The book is distributed online at no cost to the reader. This open source format offers a level of access that is in service to the larger community, rather than to profit or commercialism.
There are 4 basic assumptions that underpin Ancestral Lineage Healing:
- Consciousness continues after death.
- Not all of the dead are equally well.
- The living and the dead can communicate.
- The living and the dead can strongly affect one another.
Ancestral Lineage Healing does not take the place of psychotherapy (if needed). Currently, I am offering Ancestral Lineage Healing outside of my roles as a Psychologist and psychotherapist although I bring these professional skills and experiences to my work with clients.
Thank you! Dr. Orson Morrison
