An indigenous research framework formed the theoretical basis of this project - the foundation of which was the medicine wheel. The medicine wheel teachings are vast but the focus for this project was the concept of health whereby an individual's health is maintained through balance of emotional, physical, mental and spiritual well-being. Interconnection between these four realms is an important characteristic. This project began with the physical realm, specifically a physical activity program, and explored its interconnectedness to emotional, spiritual, mental and physical well-being.

520 $a An indigenous research framework formed the theoretical basis of this project - the foundation of which was the medicine wheel. The medicine wheel teachings are vast but the focus for this project was the concept of health whereby an individual's health is maintained through balance of emotional, physical, mental and spiritual well-being. Interconnection between these four realms is an important characteristic. This project began with the physical realm, specifically a physical activity program, and explored its interconnectedness to emotional, spiritual, mental and physical well-being.
520 $a The physical activity was a martial arts program offered at the Native Canadian Centre of Toronto. Seventeen adults (twelve indigenous) and five from other cultural backgrounds participated in the project.
520 $a Indigenous research methods, sharing circles and Anishnaabe Symbol-Based Reflection (ASBR) captured the stories of the participants. One personal interview was conducted. The stories captured in the sharing circles and the symbols from ASBR described the impact of the martial arts program on the lives of the participants.
520 $a A qualitative software program was used to analyze the stories and symbols. Nine common themes emerged which describe a collective story represented through the symbol of a hydrangea flower. The nine themes were: events of the past, hopes for the future, the martial arts program, the Native Canadian Centre, the impact of physical activity on physical, emotional, mental and spiritual well-being, and how they walk in life carrying what participants have learned from the martial arts program.
520 $a 'Threads of Connection' described their collective story accentuating how martial arts were interwoven throughout their lives. Stories of their pasts reflected the impacts of historic trauma, such as physical violence, and experiences with foster care and residential school. Yet, paradoxically, they spoke of ending this cycle of trauma in the future. The participants emphasized the importance of incorporating indigenous teachings into the physical activity program and the significance of offering it within an indigenous cultural centre.
520 $a These findings are important in demonstrating the interconnectedness of physical activity with emotional, mental, physical and spiritual well-being. This was particularly important for indigenous participants in addressing the healing from their colonial pasts.
