Navajo Nation members have raised concerns about the need to address rising rates of drug addiction. In an effort to create resources for health and wellness, in this thesis I discuss the results of ethnographic research to understand the experiences of people who use and sell drugs. The main focus of this project is to provide an opportunity to discuss and learn how Navajo philosophy and practices, such as Hozho and the Navajo Wellness Model intertwine with connection, loss, and creation - which can be applied to the challenges that surround drug use and lead to potential recommendations that could contribute to improving overall health. I conducted research for this project between July and August of 2019, during which time I conducted participant observation and 18 semi-structured interviews in the Western Agency of the Navajo Nation. In the first chapter, Community of K'e, I discuss the connections between k'e and moral economy, and the importance of k'e and kinning, as a process to provide community healing, hozho, and wellness. In Mourning and Melancholia, I discuss how violence and trauma are intertwined with loss, such as loss by death or dispossession, or loss of self. These types of loss influence a decrease in community support, k'e. In Healing and Creation, I discuss how people practice healing from their trauma through creativity and making - a process that also encourages people to mourn their loss and create connections. I also give recommendations based on the topics that are mentioned, such as k'e and community support - while also following the Navajo Wellness Model. In the conclusion I explore how these topics are preliminary research that could lead to further studies of drug interventions at a community and institutional level, increasing overall hozho and wellness.
