Shannon Ledford is a mother and an Ancestral Medicine Practitioner, trained in Daniel Foor’s method. Shannon spoke with me from her home in the ancestral lands of the Tsalagi/Cherokee in the mountains of Western NC near Asheville. Developing awareness of the ancestral background of the lands where we live is an important step in the Ancestral Healing method Shannon practices. We discuss what ancestral healing is and how we can all incorporate it into our life to make it richer. We touch on the relationship between past lives and ancestors, how to distinguish healthy from unhealthy ancestors and the relationship between place and our ancestral lineage. I loved hearing how Shannon’s life is informed by her ancestors and how the healing of her blood lineages has been a potent & enlivening journey and this really comes through in her passion for this work. This conversation took place against the background of an immense bush fire crises shaking my home country of Australia at the beginning of 2020 and we touch on how ancestral healing may also relate to that.​
