🌿 The Serviceberry: Abundance and Reciprocity in the Natural World by Robin Wall Kimmerer is a profound exploration of gift economies, Indigenous wisdom, and our connection with nature. This book invites us to rethink how we value the natural world—not as a collection of commodities, but as a system of shared abundance.

📚 In this video, we break down the key themes of the book, including:

✔️ The concept of gift economies and how they contrast with modern capitalism
✔️ How Indigenous traditions recognize nature’s generosity and encourage reciprocity
✔️ Lessons from ecology on sustainability, cooperation, and mutual flourishing
✔️ The role of gratitude and respect in our relationship with the environment

If you loved Braiding Sweetgrass, this book is a must-read! It expands on themes of ecological harmony, Indigenous philosophy, and sustainability, offering a fresh perspective on how we engage with the world around us. 🌍✨
