Sofia Lecture Series
Indigenous Healing Psychology:
Honoring the Wisdom of the First People
Sofia University Library
February 21, 2018,
4:30 - 6
:30 PM
Wherever the first inhabitants of the world gathered together, they engaged in the human concerns of community building, interpersonal relations, and spiritual understanding. As such, these earliest peoples became our "first psychologists." Their wisdom lives on through the teachings of contemporary Indigenous elders and healers, offering unique insights to help us revise contemporary mainstream psychology. This, in turn, enhances one's respect for diversity, appreciation of the spiritual dimension, and commitment to social justice.
About The Talk
During this lecture series, Richard will talk about the profoundly spiritual and everyday practices he engaged in with the hunting-gathering Ju/'hoansi of the Kalahari Desert, Fijians native to the Fiji Islands, Lakota people of the Rosebud reservation, and Cree and Anishnabe
About Richard Katz
Over the past 50 years, Richard Katz, a Harvard trained Clinical Psychologist, has worked with these Indigenous elders and healers. At their request, he seeks to apply their teachings for this revisioning of psychology.
