LNU Chapbooks

The Freesearch Papers are a collection of body-spirit wisdoms gathered from a daily personal inquiry into Freedom and Liberation. This practice-based, ancestral Freedom Magik is organized into a self-guided, soul healing werkbook. Each piece is a loving alchemical formula intended to purify you of the conditioning of colonization and oppression. The intention of this collection is to spread the practice of Freedom so that our collective bodies; families and communities become reorganized to conjure and align with a liberated Earth.
