I am Irish, French, German, Welsh and Native American. I feel all these wars in my DNA. I believe I can transmute the multi-generational traumas through my bloodlines. We are the ones we've been waiting for! Thank you for this music.
As a Welsh woman who's recently starting to really look into ancestral healing, connection with the earth etc, I felt very moved to see you using a Welsh word and referencing the Welsh Not
Wow, I just now discovered Lyla June, and I feel compelled to say that this is some of the most moving, inspirational, and beautiful music I've ever discovered. I feel like I've stumbled upon gold, or even better, true medicine. Thank you so much 🙏💓☮️🎵🌏😇
All I can say is that I've been binge watching Lyla June vids the last 24 hrs and it is confirmation to me of the medicine our Creator sends to me and all those on walking the path of healing. This song hit me in the chest. We need more recognition of Eurpean atrocities and the need to heal from them because it connects the reasons and the root causes and allows understanding of human suffering on a deeper level. We know what was done to our people here on this land. And that cannot and will not be discounted. But what about going further back? Connecting the pain. I am meztizo. The entire human spirit and lineage needs healing. Thank you Lyla June.
Thank you, so beautiful! And thank you for honoring and acknowleding our European ancestors! One of my great great great... grandmothers was burned as a witch in the northern part of of Sweden (where I live) in the 18th century. Thank you for connecting me with her, and feeling pride of my ancestry. And remember that we were indigenous too. We are. It is so close, we just need to reach down and touch the Earth. Thank you! 💗
This Native Angel of Wisdom, truth and love as I've given her this nickname. Great work I pray for you every day and follow your message. You changed this Native man into a warrior and much more wadan thank you
This is my playlist all month, I am feeling small in the universe and I am feeling healing.. Lyla June... you speak for all the generations living today, and bring forth the messages of the ancestors past... thankyou🎶💕
Thank you, Lyla June. I'm so grateful for your voice, your music, your heart. Your words and song help me to follow the thread back through all the wounding that has happened, continues to happen to a beginning time when we all knew Earth and celebrated our connection with the land, one another, our more-than-human family.
Thank you for bringing attention to this important topic. Ancestral Healing is so important and necessary, yet often overlooked. Yet we can't heal, or be truly whole, unless we do this work. Keep singing!
This deeply touches my Being as a mixed person of both Diné American Indigenous and British-isle heritage who reclaims the word witch and who practices a mixture of those old medicines and healing. I do my best every day to be someone who holds the Earth in my hands. Thank you for your truth and music.
I'm so blessed to have stumbled on your music today. Thank you sister. I've been in tears all morning. You're such a beautiful soul and may all nations hear your call.
From the Choctaw Nation of the USA, Peace out to all the Pagans across Europe. Pagan Indigenous People across the world, keep your culture alive and de-colonize your minds. ✊🏽
Thank you Lyla, your music and words have been so helpful in my life. They keep me strong and supported in my path to lead a life guided by the land. I am a lost person born in Belgium but somehow living on land in the Pacific Northwest and my roots grow slowly. Thank you for music which is healing! Hoping my words can give you knowledge that you are making a difference in my life!
What a blessing to see you perform this live at Compassion Camp by Souldust over the weekend! Thank you for sharing your beautiful gifts with the world. Love to you, dear Sister!
thank you Lyla June, for adding your voice to address this huge collective trauma. the present estimate of the scale of this persecution is not 6-9 million but 40.000 to 100.000 people, of which approximately 80% women. the estimate of 6-9 million was based on the most heavily affected regions, transposed to all of Europe. this more realistic figure doesn't in any way make the trauma less, nor the urgency of addressing it. it remains a terribly important chapter of the story of the uprooting of the indigenous culture of Europe. being correct in the underlying scientific base only strengthens that story. keep strong in the struggle, great appreciation for what you do. love & rage.
As a child, my father always said, " Honor ALL of your ancestors." I took this to heart being raised multicultural. My parents taught me as much as they could about my mixed ancestry, and its been a journey, to say the least. Thank you for honoring the wise women in the Old Country and bringing this link back into the conversation!!!!
My daughter just saw you last night singing in Asheville NC. You are awesome. Your going to spread medicine to help the world too. You have a special destiny :)
Thank you for the "Feeling is Healing" and best Truths touched here, in song form anew... soooooo helpful for the cross-cultural parts of us longing for unity ~our real basis of being human.
Lyla June is the most beautiful soul on Earth!!!! In love with her and is infinitely beautiful inside and out, sent from above!! Lyla is so Heaven scent, everything she says or does always has so much wisdom, guidance and love in it!! Much love and blessings from Canada!!!🙏🙏💓💓♥♥💚💚💜💜💛💛
That's my grandpa Joseph Benny my grandma took my mom & her siblings from him & that lifestyle when she was 7. He passed away when she was 16. He was chiricahua & lived & died on the reservation. I am different then my siblings. I'm no longer afraid of who I am. I asked my Grandma she just told me what kind of Apache he is. I have read their spiritual beliefs & it all makes sense. People think I'm a witch but I know I'm not it's my native blood. I naturally know things & I need answers. I'm under attack & listening this soothes me. I connect with the land. I have ancestors that protect me. 1 is a warrior & is a sweet lady older lady big smile , I have 6 warriors that stand with me & I have Angels.
Thank you Lyla June for the powerful, healing song❤❤❤.I have ancestors from Scotland and Wales. Time to bring that wound to the surface and allow it to heal. Peace, Love, and Blessings Sister.❤🦋🙏
Thank you for bringing forth a flow of tears while I made my morning coffee. To hear this.....I can't even find the words to thank you . I am pouring out blessings towards you. This is on this list of things I never knew I needed & my soul thanks your soul.
I am so moved to tears over this and joy to see the healing thank you beautiful soul sister for singing and dancing the healing the divine feminine will rise and be respected, protected, as it always will be. ❤🙏❤
As a person of Celtic ancestry living gratefully in Canada this really was so beautiful and sad in the best way to hear. We are healing and connecting as never before, heres to the world we are creating!
This is an amazing song🥰 For I do honor my ancestors, my great grandmother was burnt in Salem Massachusetts. Today I teach my children and grandchildren the way it used to be and how to honor mother earth today. This song has so much,many different, meaning for me. My great grandfather was also killed for standing up for what he believed in .... I’m running wolf .... HERE’S TO OUR ANCESTORS ✨
Wow. Currently enroute to visit these homelands for the first time In my adult life and have been hearing the call of my ancestors so strongly. Sitting in the airport crying listening to this. Even more reason to return. Im a South African Welsh German Canadian this hits so many parts of my blood achemically
You my love are a warrior priestess, I was honored to have first heard your voice on Earth Changes Channel....... May the true God of creation always bless you.... Much love 💕 from my family to yours!🥰💕😘
Thankyou Sacred Sister Lyla we are on the same page and so of the same mind I guess. As you are Scots Di Ne I thought you may like to know the highest hill over my town apart from the skyridges of course is "Lyle Hill" it reminds me of you and your Mother. Always a good thing Sacred Sister...with deep respect and honour for you both.
Wonderful Lyla ~ thank you so much for acknowledging and bringing release and blessing to those victims of one of the greatest genocides of all time. Those women have always had a place in my heart. My place in this lifetime has been in the healing arts & sacred, and I feel drawn to carry on their legacy. Gratitude ~
💧 some of us impaled, strangled, then burnt in those times are reincarnated with memory open as a child. Knowledge of healing herbs & Ways of Life are bridging from ancient times, now, to future, all lands in peace
Thank you for this song! Have you posted the lyrics? I would love to read it, because there are a few words I can't understand in the song, like, "My father's (barn) stories"? Can you elaborate on that? What are those stories? I was also curious about how you describe Europe as "Mother country". Is this alluding to your personal relationship to Europe as ancestral land to you, or is there more to this name? I always thought of Africa region as Motherland (where we all generally originate from). But it feels awkward to equate that sentiment with a name that conquerors claimed it as. I want to hear your thoughts on the subject, and I really appreciate how you open the song with the ancestral names and then reveal throughout the rest of the song what you are talking about. Keep making music, thanks!
Time traveler i enjoy journeying through your heart. This generation will see a new beginning and truth to the true human potential as Maitreya is now with us. Much love from New Zealand
W☀️W !!! W☀️W !!! W☀️W !!! You are such a beautiful soul and so very talented in your writings and songs . Thank you 🙏 for sharing your heart and valuable, crucial knowledge with us !!! You're healing the world and for that I am eternally grateful sister 🍃💚🍃 ~ namaste ~
thank you lyla this is deep compassionate connecting song from an indigenous leader to the us European women “witches” who were foremothers taking part in the manifest destiny genocide of your people. its deep respect and gratitude for your teaching.
Wonderfull peace of art Lyla. I carry welsh and Irish blood, since born I feel that ancient wisdom of our ancestors that were tortured, as well as the americans native. I truly thank you in name of all my ancestors and mine to sharing this with the world. ♥
Gracias por marcar la diferencia, por ser mostrar tu compasión. Europa hizo daño a tu gente, pero espero que y tengo fe en la conciencia humana. Vuestra cultura es tan pura que no es entendible para el viciado hombre del antiguo continente. LOVE YOU SO MUCH.
Thank you so much for this song . It make me cry . My Ancestors did what was done to them . I have always been connected to Spirt . I am asking the Creator to send me an Angel like you !
I, m from Spain, but I think my spirit comes from you, the most beautiful cultural and ethics is the real American blood, Arapahoe, Crows, Lakotas, etc. I love you with all I am.
I really needed this song today. The pain is so strong today of my past and the family lies that they never told me because I was too young they said. Instead I was hated, called names and left to wonder as a child. Their lies where exposed, their hatred was for nay because my dna test showed me the truth of who my ancestors where. I have not moved over that river yet. It am still grieving this pain 6 years later. Thank you for the songs today.
its beautiful to witness a mixed native & euro person, who is not white presenting, to acknowledge all parts including the european, so as to come that much more wholness and healing for self and collective. im saying that as a white presenting mixed (native & euro) person.. i dont know how to say it..it helps to create unity amongst people and within one self..and the european part really needs alot of healing and acknowledgement, and i know thats hard but so necesary. you posting is also a great example and encouragement. much love ♡♡♡
Thank you, Lyla June. 🙏 #MMIW #FreeLeonardPeltier #LandBack #WaterIsLife "It is not coincidental that for so-called religious fundamentalists - whether they are Western or Eastern, Muslim or Christian - rigid male dominance and "holy wars" are priorities. Or that competing sects of the same religion, such as Sunni and Shia, are at each other's throats. In these cultures, women are rigidly controlled by men. To change our realities, we also have to change our myths. As history amply demonstrates, myths and realities go hand in hand. I pray for a world where we live in partnership rather than domination; where "man's conquest of nature" is recognized as suicidal and sacrilegious; where power is no longer equated with the blade, but with the holy chalice: the ancient symbol of the power to give, nurture, enhance life. And I not only pray, but actively work, for the day when it will be so. Obviously there is pain in childbirth. But giving birth is also a moment of awe and wonder, a moment when the true miracle of aliveness, and of a woman's amazing part in that miracle, is suddenly experienced in every cell of one's body. It is in that sense truly an altered state of consciousness. [On the ancient Venus figurines:] If the central religious figure was a woman giving birth and not, as in our time, a man dying on a cross, it would not be unreasonable to infer that life and the love of life - rather than death and the fear of death - were dominant in society as well as art. War and the 'war of the sexes' are neither divinely nor biologically ordained. So many of the models of courage we've had, ones that are still taught to boys and girls, are about going out to slay the dragon, to kill. It's a courage that's born out of fear, anger, and hate. But there's this other kind of courage. It's the courage to risk your life, not in war, not in battle, not out of fear ... but out of love and a sense of injustice that has to be challenged. It takes far more courage to challenge unjust authority without violence than it takes to kill all the monsters in all the stories told to children about the meaning of bravery. We humans are wired for empathy by evolution, but when children grow up in dominator families they internalize this male over female template for relations early on. They then automatically apply it to other differences, whether based on race, religion, sexual orientation, and so forth. As long as women and the "feminine" such as caring and caregiving are devalued, we cannot realistically expect more caring economic policies. Young people have a major role to play in creating a caring economics. We can't just tack on environmental balance to a fundamentally imbalanced system. This notion that man can, and should, have absolute dominion over the "chaotic" powers of nature and woman...is what ultimately lies behind man's famous "conquest of nature" - a conquest that is today puncturing holes in the earth's ozone layer, destroying our forests, polluting our air and water, and increasingly threatening the welfare, and even survival, of thousands of living species, including our own. People from authoritarian, male-dominated, punitive families tend to vote for "strongman" leaders and for "hard" punitive policies (prisons, wars) rather than "soft" caring policies (healthcare, childcare). Not everyone from this background does. But many people do. And this conditioning can be exploited, as Trump's campaign did, especially in times like ours of economic, social, and technological upheaval. While there were many factors in the 2016 election, from false news to voter suppression and Russian hacking, the question is why so many people responded to Donald Trump's demagoguery. #MurdochGutterMedia To heal ourselves we also have to heal society. We humans are wired for empathy by evolution, but when children grow up in dominator families they internalize this male over female template for relations early on. They then automatically apply it to other differences, whether based on race, religion, sexual orientation, and so forth. The only life many of the leaders of the anti-family planning movement seem to care about -- indeed obsess about -- is life before birth and after death. If we look at the last decades, we see that the US rightist-fundamentalist alliance demonized partnership-oriented families and painted women's rights as a threat to "tradition" - which of course it is to traditions of domination. These people had an integrated political agenda that recognizes that a "traditional" authoritarian, male dominated, punitive family is foundational to an authoritarian, male dominated, punitive politics. We can see this connection in sharp relief in brutal top-down regimes, be they secular like Nazi Germany or religious like ISIS in the Middle East. The link between intimate violence in the home and the international violence of terrorism and war is as tightly bound together as the fingers of a clenched fist. Contemporary nations such as Sweden, Norway, and Finland, where women are half of the national legislatures, have more caring policies, less violence, and more environmentally sustainable policies. These are connections we must pay attention to if we are to build a better future for us all. We can learn a great deal from whales. It is the same lesson we can learn from our close genetic relatives, the bonobo apes of the Congo. Here mothers have a great deal of authority, there is very little violence (with no signs of sexual violence against females), and their society is held together by sharing and caring rather than by fear and force. Care work produces public goods, and should be supported in families by policies such as paid parental leave and caregiver tax credits, and by investments in good training and wages for caregiving, including early childhood education, in the market. When the status and power of women is greater so also is the nation’s general quality of life; when they are lower, so is the quality of life for all. In sum, the struggle for our future is ..... the struggle between those who cling to patterns of domination and those working for a more equitable partnership world." ~ Riane Eisler
I have used your work in my classroom and during workshops and I have tremendous gratitude. (As a side note, the first link in the description doesn't work)
Lyla June is a living treasure and wonderful human being
I am Irish, French, German, Welsh and Native American. I feel all these wars in my DNA. I believe I can transmute the multi-generational traumas through my bloodlines. We are the ones we've been waiting for! Thank you for this music.
Beautiful.. words...are so powerful and some use them so recklessly but some do not. Thank you for your words. They touch deep within my soul.

I am so happy to have found native American music that I can listen to!!! thanks!!
💯🌈💜
Same here !!! She is wonderful.
All I can say is that I've been binge watching Lyla June vids the last 24 hrs and it is confirmation to me of the medicine our Creator sends to me and all those on walking the path of healing. This song hit me in the chest. We need more recognition of Eurpean atrocities and the need to heal from them because it connects the reasons and the root causes and allows understanding of human suffering on a deeper level. We know what was done to our people here on this land. And that cannot and will not be discounted. But what about going further back? Connecting the pain. I am meztizo. The entire human spirit and lineage needs healing. Thank you Lyla June.

I have not moved over that river yet. It am still grieving this pain 6 years later. Thank you for the songs today.
Thank you Lyla for this beautiful song. I would love to read the articles linked to this video but they are all outdated or couldn't be found.
This song brought tears to my heart. It is helping me to heal. Love and healing out to the collective. The collective energies. ✨🌍✨
its beautiful to witness a mixed native & euro person, who is not white presenting, to acknowledge all parts including the european, so as to come that much more wholness and healing for self and collective. im saying that as a white presenting mixed (native & euro) person.. i dont know how to say it..it helps to create unity amongst people and within one self..and the european part really needs alot of healing and acknowledgement, and i know thats hard but so necesary. you posting is also a great example and encouragement. much love ♡♡♡
absolutely beautiful and heart rending thank you and much luck in your current struggles
Thank you, Lyla June. 🙏 #MMIW #FreeLeonardPeltier #LandBack #WaterIsLife
"It is not coincidental that for so-called religious fundamentalists - whether they are Western or Eastern, Muslim or Christian - rigid male dominance and "holy wars" are priorities. Or that competing sects of the same religion, such as Sunni and Shia, are at each other's throats. In these cultures, women are rigidly controlled by men.
To change our realities, we also have to change our myths. As history amply demonstrates, myths and realities go hand in hand. I pray for a world where we live in partnership rather than domination; where "man's conquest of nature" is recognized as suicidal and sacrilegious; where power is no longer equated with the blade, but with the holy chalice: the ancient symbol of the power to give, nurture, enhance life. And I not only pray, but actively work, for the day when it will be so.
Obviously there is pain in childbirth. But giving birth is also a moment of awe and wonder, a moment when the true miracle of aliveness, and of a woman's amazing part in that miracle, is suddenly experienced in every cell of one's body. It is in that sense truly an altered state of consciousness.
[On the ancient Venus figurines:] If the central religious figure was a woman giving birth and not, as in our time, a man dying on a cross, it would not be unreasonable to infer that life and the love of life - rather than death and the fear of death - were dominant in society as well as art.
War and the 'war of the sexes' are neither divinely nor biologically ordained. So many of the models of courage we've had, ones that are still taught to boys and girls, are about going out to slay the dragon, to kill. It's a courage that's born out of fear, anger, and hate. But there's this other kind of courage. It's the courage to risk your life, not in war, not in battle, not out of fear ... but out of love and a sense of injustice that has to be challenged. It takes far more courage to challenge unjust authority without violence than it takes to kill all the monsters in all the stories told to children about the meaning of bravery.
We humans are wired for empathy by evolution, but when children grow up in dominator families they internalize this male over female template for relations early on. They then automatically apply it to other differences, whether based on race, religion, sexual orientation, and so forth.
As long as women and the "feminine" such as caring and caregiving are devalued, we cannot realistically expect more caring economic policies. Young people have a major role to play in creating a caring economics.
We can't just tack on environmental balance to a fundamentally imbalanced system.
This notion that man can, and should, have absolute dominion over the "chaotic" powers of nature and woman...is what ultimately lies behind man's famous "conquest of nature" - a conquest that is today puncturing holes in the earth's ozone layer, destroying our forests, polluting our air and water, and increasingly threatening the welfare, and even survival, of thousands of living species, including our own.
People from authoritarian, male-dominated, punitive families tend to vote for "strongman" leaders and for "hard" punitive policies (prisons, wars) rather than "soft" caring policies (healthcare, childcare). Not everyone from this background does. But many people do. And this conditioning can be exploited, as Trump's campaign did, especially in times like ours of economic, social, and technological upheaval.
While there were many factors in the 2016 election, from false news to voter suppression and Russian hacking, the question is why so many people responded to Donald Trump's demagoguery. #MurdochGutterMedia
To heal ourselves we also have to heal society. We humans are wired for empathy by evolution, but when children grow up in dominator families they internalize this male over female template for relations early on. They then automatically apply it to other differences, whether based on race, religion, sexual orientation, and so forth.
The only life many of the leaders of the anti-family planning movement seem to care about -- indeed obsess about -- is life before birth and after death. If we look at the last decades, we see that the US rightist-fundamentalist alliance demonized partnership-oriented families and painted women's rights as a threat to "tradition" - which of course it is to traditions of domination.
These people had an integrated political agenda that recognizes that a "traditional" authoritarian, male dominated, punitive family is foundational to an authoritarian, male dominated, punitive politics. We can see this connection in sharp relief in brutal top-down regimes, be they secular like Nazi Germany or religious like ISIS in the Middle East. The link between intimate violence in the home and the international violence of terrorism and war is as tightly bound together as the fingers of a clenched fist.
Contemporary nations such as Sweden, Norway, and Finland, where women are half of the national legislatures, have more caring policies, less violence, and more environmentally sustainable policies. These are connections we must pay attention to if we are to build a better future for us all.
We can learn a great deal from whales. It is the same lesson we can learn from our close genetic relatives, the bonobo apes of the Congo. Here mothers have a great deal of authority, there is very little violence (with no signs of sexual violence against females), and their society is held together by sharing and caring rather than by fear and force.
Care work produces public goods, and should be supported in families by policies such as paid parental leave and caregiver tax credits, and by investments in good training and wages for caregiving, including early childhood education, in the market.
When the status and power of women is greater so also is the nation’s general quality of life; when they are lower, so is the quality of life for all. In sum, the struggle for our future is ..... the struggle between those who cling to patterns of domination and those working for a more equitable partnership world." ~ Riane Eisler
