当土著教学需要更宽广的视角时，我们如何将我们的重点限制在心理健康上？当土著经验谈到一种非常不同的治疗方法时，我们如何应对心理健康恢复，以及我们如何在不讨论身份和殖民的情况下处理加拿大土著人民的健康问题？我们不能，因为加拿大土著人民的精神健康和恢复一直与历史、身份、政治、语言和混乱联系在一起。因此，在这篇论文中，我们的目的是阐明历史，突出殖民主义的影响，并阐述多伦多发生的土著治疗实践。根据当地一个研究项目的研究结果，我们认为这些治疗实践超越了有限的康复和实践概念，为解决土著人民的身体、情感、精神和精神健康提供了深刻而实用的方法。
How do we limit our focus to mental health when Indigenous teaching demands a much wider lens? How do we respond to mental health recovery when Indigenous experience speaks to a very different approach to healing, and how can we take up the health of Indigenous people in Canada without a discussion of identity and colonization? We cannot, for the mental health and recovery of Indigenous people in Canada have always been tied to history, identity, politics, language and dislocation. Thus, in this paper, our aim is to make clear that history, highlight the impacts of colonization and expound on Indigenous healing practices taking place in Toronto. Based on findings from a local research project, we argue these healing practices go beyond limited notions of recovery and practice, offering profound and practical ways to address the physical, emotional, spiritual and mental health of Indigenous peoples.
