Season 6, Episode 9:

Health and Wellness – Body, Mind & Spirit

A look at how entrepreneurs are getting involved in the health and wellness industry, and helping the Aboriginal community to heal.

In this episode we introduce you to Aboriginal people who have made it their business to help others. First, meet Rhonda, a young Aboriginal woman who overcame weight and addiction problems with the help of the ancient art of yoga. It’s the latest fitness craze all across North America! We’ll show you how Rhonda was able to turn her love for yoga into a flourishing business. Then, meet a Cree man who is helping youth to work through sensitive issues such as drug and sexual abuse using drama. Could this healing technique help Aboriginal youth all across the country? And lastly, we meet a young cartoonist who is using his artistic gifts to make comic books for youth. These books are not only appealing to young people, they are educating them on topics such as suicide, diabetes, and sexual health.
