Ep. 003 The Transformative and Healing Journey of Indigenous Tattoos with Ecko Aleck
What happens when ancestral markings and tattooing become an intimate part of a healing journey? This episode takes you on a deeply transformative quest with our special guest, Ecko, an Indigenous artist who utilizes tattooing as a means of survival, self-expression, and healing. She generously shares her firsthand account of discovering her passion for art, preparing for, receiving, and the profound impact of her full body tattoo, underscoring the vital role of breath medicine during this process.
We also delve into the sacred aspect of this practice and the creation of safe spaces for healing. The discussions center around the profound role of ancestral medicine and the significance of internal work by the practitioner. We also explore the power of gatherings for traditional tattooing and the sense of community they nurture among practitioners. Our journey gets even more exciting as we explore Ecko’s passion as the founder of Sacred Matriarch Productions Media, discussing an innovative approach to business models that aims at decolonization and future inclusivity.
In this episode, you will also hear Ecko’s powerful story of embracing Indigenous traditions and practices for self-love and healing. Ecko recounts the transformation experience after receiving a full body Nlaka’pamux Blackwork tattoo, which helped shape her self-image and acceptance. We also explore the significance of setting boundaries and the concept of a decolonized relationship with time that leads to enhanced productivity and self-care. Be prepared for a whirlwind of inspiration and enlightenment, as we discuss the power, heritage, and transformative impact of Indigenous tattoos, ancestral markings, and more.
I hope you have enjoyed this episode, and I am excited to travel the world of Indigenous tattooing with you as we visit with friends and colleagues from across the globe doing the work.
