Author Asha Frost to Discuss Indigenous Wisdom at Virtual Library Event

The Town of Newington will host a virtual author conversation on Nov. 3 at 2 p.m. Eastern time. The online session features Asha Frost, who is identified in the event description as an Indigenous medicine woman and a member of the Chippewas of Nawash First Nation. The program is titled "Reclaiming Your Inner Wisdom: Sacred Indigenous Teachings with Asha Frost." Readers must register to join the discussion.

Frost will explore themes from her book, "You Are the Medicine: 13 Moons of Indigenous Wisdom, Ancestral Connection, and Animal Spirit Guidance." The event description lists ancestral connection, self-care, and respectful engagement with Indigenous traditions as primary topics for the conversation. The session is designed to allow Newington residents to engage with these concepts through an online platform.

The Friends of the Library sponsors the talk. The presentation is organized in partnership with the Library Speaker's Consortium. Registration is mandatory for the online program, ensuring that only confirmed attendees can access the virtual link. Interested readers can find specific event details and complete the registration process through the library's author talk page.

This virtual format allows Newington residents to participate from their own locations without attending a physical meeting at the library. The event serves as a platform for discussing Indigenous teachings and personal wellness practices. Frost’s role as a medicine woman and tribal member anchors the session in specific cultural contexts. The partnership between local library volunteers and the speaker's consortium facilitates this access to specialized topics.
