Inuit-The House of Healing- Greenland "Northwest passage, Canada, Arctic Bay, Nunavut Wisdom not to lose The resilient indigenous communities of Greenland have thrived for many generations amidst some of the most challenging conditions on Earth. Their accumulated wisdom and knowledge are an invaluable treasure. Traditional healing practices in Greenland used to involve the use of drums as a central element. These practices were deeply rooted in Kalaallit and Inuit culture and spirituality, where the drum holds significant symbolism and power. Performed by shamans or healers who have been trained in the ancient ways of their ancestors, the drum is believed to connect the physical world with the spiritual realm, serving as a conduit for healing energies and ancestral wisdom. Traditional healing practices involved other elements in conjunction with drumming, such as herbs, incense, and ritualistic movements. The Native Greenland Foundation was created in 2020 to support the indigenous people of Greenland in rediscovering their cultural and spiritual identity, to openly face social and economic issues experienced by the natives, as well as promoting the exchange of wisdom, knowledge, and traditions of the native residents of Greenland with Western society."
