| Description | [ I argue that holistic education often falls short of its intended potential because it is born from the Indigenous worldview but stifled by the dominant one. This detracts from full understanding and implementation worldwide. I introduce a metacognitive worldview reflection approach that can lead to a re-embracing our “original instructions” and to finding complementarity between the two that can lead to a more authentic holism. I conclude by briefly describing Indigenous worlding exercises for this that relate to Indigenous perspectives on Trance-based learning; Fear/Fearlessness; Authority/Heirarchy; Words/Truthfulness; and Nature/Teacher. ]This chapter introduces the ways to deepen implementation and future research relating to principles shared by holistic and Indigenous education that can help us find ways to regain balance in our world before it is too late. Unfortunately, implementation of this holistic ideal has fallen short of what we need to achieve in education, with non-anthropocentric connections not matching those of the Indigenous worldview. Concentration-activated transformation-Fear-Authority-Words-Nature uses four concepts for which Indigenous and dominant worldviews have significant contrast, it is the perfect tool for bringing Indigenous worlding into holistic education. These four concepts include: Trance-based learning, Fear, Authority and Words. Ask what possible fear relates to the event, action, attitude or behavior. Note that the dominant worldview perspective is to avoid, dismiss or deny it. Closely related to fear is the authority for it. Get in touch with the position, beliefs, feelings you have about the issue at hand. Get in touch with all the words use, especially self-talk.
