Description: Marika Alvarado is an indigenous woman who comes from Texas and as a child belonged to a family who were migrant farm workers. Marika received her calling as a seer and began her training nn ancient medicine of plants, and other practices at the age of five until her mother passed away. She teaches those who wish to learn because this knowledge no longer transfers to offspring or generational as the children move on to other careers to survive. The traditional way of living for indigenous people was greatly interrupted and families have lost their practices, and can hardly survive in the new world. The oral knowledge of ancient medicine is over 10,000 years old and contains information of countless plants to deal with viruses new and old and many other diseases, plus other practices for healing. This slow of ancient knowledge is slowing dying benefits all people of the planet,not just native people. Pharmaceutical companies know this and will find answers for the general population in traditional knowledge such as the discovery of medicine for malaria. Mainstream science could take 100’s a year more to know what plants can do for us all, and is contained in these shamanic healers’ work who are dying out. She also addresses how these healers can heal others when dealing with mental illness or evil deeds, and why this exists according to earth medicine.
