Lakota Prayer for Children

Artists: Spur Pourier and Fawn Wood
Songwriter: Spur Pourier
About the Album:
Volume 1 of the meditation series, enâtawâstemikweyahk, was a big hit, so we just had to do another one! Volume 2, titled kisâkihitin, welcomes our brothers from the south joining sisters from the north in a powerful and soulful mix of Cree and Lakota languages. This album is dedicated to all the children who were taken away from home through Indian Residential School, the 60's scoop, and Child Welfare. We want you to know you are loved and you belong.
Meditation: môsowâyehtamôwin (to sense), apâhkaweyihtamôwin (to be consciously aware), koskwâtapôwin (to sit quiet and still), nâkatohkewin (to be mindful), wan'sehisôwin (to lose self), kâkesimôwin (to pray).
Sometimes we just want to be quiet and still
Sometimes we want to feel connected…
To our Mother Earth; All our Relations; Our People
To hear the heartbeat that matches ours…
And we remember that we are one and we belong.
