 Angkwerre-iweme  |  ​Traditional Healing

Healing comes from the land.
We go back to the land to feel better.
Through the land we strengthen and improve our health. 
Arrernte traditional healing knowledge and practice has been passed down for generations and is still strong today. We have used songs, healers, rubbing medicines and smoke to take care of our people for thousands of years.

Angangkere are Arrernte Traditional Healers, they are highly respected and work hard taking care of people’s health and wellbeing. One of the original aims of Akeyulerre was to provide a place for Angangkere in Alice Springs. The ​​​Angkwerre-iweme program supports Angangkere to keep strong and continue healing their families in their communities and within health services such as hospital, clinics and aged care.  

Our Elders are committed to passing on their knowledge of plants and healing remedies to ensure these important practices are available for the generations to come. Our elders and young women work together collecting and preparing bush medicine rubs to provide care for the community, they also use kwerte-ileme smoke from plants to heal and cleanse people and places. 
​
Through practicing, sharing and building understanding of Arrernte healing we hope to create an inclusive health care model for Arrernte people.

​Tyerrtye Mwerre   |  Personal Wellbeing

The Tyerrtye Mwerre Wellbeing project brings together Angangkere and Arrernte knowledge holders to explore and share our understanding of personal wellbeing, with the aim to develop Arrernte language and resources that will support people and services to engage with traditional healing knowledge and practices.
