Earth Ethos facilitates being human and healing together with all of our relations. Indigenous thinking and ways of being are our foundation, as shared in the book Healing Through Indigenous Wisdom (2024).

All people are spiritually (not necessarily politically) Indigenous to the Earth. Many cultures use a medicine wheel as a framework to make sense of the world and our place in it. Through ceremony and relationships based on reciprocity, we can live and work in a way that honours the Indigenous peoples and ancestry of the land where we live, our lineages, and all beings. This is a path of de-colonisation, re-indigenisation, vitalisation, embodiment, and practicing indigenous science.

Valerie and Lukas Ringland (Australia) have been working with an Earth Ethos since 2019, and Jos Pfitzner of Josfulness began collaborating in 2024. We can support you to decolonise and recover your authentic Indigenous spiritual identity, integrate indigenous science healing tools and practices into your daily life, ground yourself and respectfully connect with ancestors and the land where you live.

Our wish is that you become a trustworthy medicine person, embodying your healing gifts in the world.

Find out more about our approach for free through knowledge-sharing blogs, videos, and a 2025 Futuresteading podcast interview with Valerie. Read about us and see our offerings to learn more about the gift economy spirit we work within. Retreats are facilitated on Yuin Country (the far south coast of NSW) by Valerie, Lukas, and Jos with the support of sacred mother mountain Gulaga.
