    I literally just ran into her video and now I’m obsessed with her. What an amazing woman she is. Sharing her knowledge. I’m into herbs and natural healing. This is perfect. I watched the video again with pen and paper in hand. Much love Ms Edna. Thank you ❤❤❤

    Edna I feel the same way about plants. But I’m not native n I don’t know about medicinal of plants. But at one time when I lived in the city. My neighbor cut down a very old BIG tree because she got tired of cleaning up after her. I cried n moved ASAP now I live in the second highest hill in my county. On 5 acres surrounded by trees a small pond a ravine with an 80 foot drop waterfall in it, and I am much happier. If I hear one car, I call it a traffic jam and lots of mother nature, foxes eagles, dear possums, etc. I am almost 70 went n got my checkup. N they didn’t find nothing is wrong. Came out with normal on all the tests. And I attributed to living in harmony with mother, nature out here in a beautiful realm.no drama no stress. Just love and harmony. I do ask for blessings from all I eat and drink. And many blessings I ask for u. Thank u for teaching us. ( white eyes LMAO 🤣) ❤️😊🌲

    I am European ancestors but i was very sad when i got old enough to study and learn from and about ur culture. And what we had done to ur ancestors and your family and friends and brothers continue on this day so sad thank you for reading this long response. PS when I was a child playing outside and we played the typical Cowboys in Indians, I would always be an Indian, so my heart is in the end, or at least wants to be by👋

    We can! The is no backwards and forwards. Reality is curved and alive, and quite round. This world is a home. To me; she is my mother not a trap. Its all love. Edna is so very wise!. She says these things so well and I'm so glad to have found her here. She shares knowledge that we share and this gives me more much needed hope!

    @☆"Alza" Mystic ☆ I couldn't find your playlist but found a few others and their teachings, but there is something about you that draws me to you and I value your teachings and stories. I have studied indigenous people since I was in the 7th grade and have fiund a strange kinship inside myself that I cant explain. My grandparents came from Germany but I have often though about doing a DNA research on myself. I feel a strong pull toward the Onondaga tribe but don't know of any roots. Still in my heart I feel it. I send you thanks and blessings for all Ive learned from your videos.
