“…Indigenous perspectives of health can also point to or are supported by strength-based processes of resilience that not only involve or draw on these four aspects of one's being [35,36], but also involve positive adaptation and resistance in the face of colonization, historical traumas, or structural violence, as well as current stresses, challenges, and demands [37,38]. Indeed, research with diverse Indigenous Peoples attests that relationships with nature and land support all four elements of life, and this in turn can: enhance overall health, resilience, and well-being [28,30,31,39]; improve selfesteem and self-efficacy [40], increase consumption of traditional foods [41]; foster intergenerational relationships [38]; reduce psychological distress [42]; and strengthen cultural identity and belonging [43].
