‘After becoming a resident of the Soul Seed House last week, I cannot stop exploring! This space is more than I could have ever imagined research to embody. I hold so much respect for your process of deep listening, participatory learning and sharing of sacred knowledge in a safe, creative and nurturing space. I would be so honored to contribute and keep learning from the House in any way possible: transcribing interviews, grant writing, research.’

‘This isn’t a university course in philosophy to learn everything they know. They’re going to teach you something for very specific reasons. Weaving is a form of interacting with the world. We weave each other together in a story. Life is all about how we weave each other together in a story we call our life.’
‘This isn’t a university course in philosophy to learn everything they know. They’re going to teach you something for very specific reasons. Weaving is a form of interacting with the world. We weave each other together in a story. Life is all about how we weave each other together in a story we call our life. We are not these individual strands we need to weave together patterns, structures, things that are useful. To just learn to weave a mochila sitting down and understanding that if you made a mistake it’s because your brain had a thought in it - and that’s what you have to unravel and go back and do it again. To reweave that problem. The knowledge of working with a trade like that - everything becomes sacred and you’re in communication with the fabric that’s in front of you. These women that are under threat right now, dealing with machismo and men from their tribes - going through hard times. We are not knowing how or what to do. Hannah approaches this society through a female approach and seeing what the indigenous women have to offer us. While weaving can seem simple, the depth that is inside can be missed because of the masculine linear mind, of the material, of the left brain.‘

‘If I could narrow it to one thing that Soul Seed did for me, and I mean this sincerely - it brought me from nothing is sacred to everything is sacred. It taught me that there’s a connection to be made with everything and that in order to reclaim the sacred there is a connection to be made with the waters and the earth, and the people harvesting our food and the fibers that make our clothes and the trees that have been here so much longer than us, each animal having its own precious life and dignity. Also talking about offerings that we have to give.’
