To anyone who needs a little lift in spirits:
"If I am to be insulted, I must first value your opinion."
So True!
Good insight!
I know someone who insults others, entire categories of people, and specific persons near and far, but no one is bothered. No one values this person's mindless opinions!
I'll be your huckleberry 😊
@@DrunkenUFOPilot sometimes that's the only way to deal with it lol
as someone who struggles greatly with self esteem and confidence, i can definitely say that having others around you to help build it is absolutely crucial. my experience has been that most people prefer to put others down in an attempt to boost their own low self esteem instead of being supportive. no battle is won by one person, and the battle against the self is not won without the support of others..
Make your self a friend and then you are never alone.
Three Dog, you are correct. I was raised by people who very methodically and purposefully destroyed my sense of self and whatever confidence I may have had. One way they made sure to do this was to constantly move long distances as soon as I started making connections with people. I'm working to learn how to undo all that destructive programming in my own head so that I CAN make those healthy connections with people who uplift and encourage. I'm deeply grateful for people like this man who teaches what we should all have been able to learn. 💛
It's so very hard to find real friends. The few I've tried to connect with have just stolen from me. My trust is so demolished and my lonely heart breaks daily. I can only rely on self love, and that's why self confidence and my own inner joy is such a crucial lifeline. I can only be sure that my own heart does not turn dark; I cannot be responsible for any more than that. Most true evil is caused by humans who know better but choose it anyways. I won't let that evil in.

@@Chris-ce7ve I agree.😊
I was so very blessed growing up. I'm 55 years old and my parents raised me to be comfortable in the skin that I'm in. I was taught that my self esteem should never be dependent upon anyone else's approval. Treat people the way you would like to be treated and to never make fun of anyone that's different from me. It is the things about each of us that are different that make us each unique and special. I've always considered not "fitting in" or not following the crowd to be one of my very best qualities. The only person I will ever have to be good enough for is me. The same goes for each and every human being. Thank Grandfather for your wisdom.

Thankfully each person is different. Just as each person has their own name we are all different. Have a day of peace.
It’s like I was reading at my own writing….except my upbringing wasn’t the model but I learned what I didn’t want as an adult and had same thought because I got that from church. ❤❤
Good comment mate
One day I decided to be kind and respectful to the people I would come across. I started to look around and be thankful for all the nice and simple things that I noticed. This was the beginning of inner growth and it made me move from mental devastation to happiness.
Lifting up other peoples minds with some positivity and also earning trust from animals is so rewarding. I feel very grateful and strong now.
Thank you for your wisdom. Your beautiful native language is soft spoken and seems to express innate wisdom
If we all could live by his teachings we would be more kind and understanding to our fellow man this world would be a better place for us all across the world!
I love that you care and take the time to share your life lessons. I look forward to everyone 🤗 thank you & stay well
Yes. Brings back memories of my family support when growing up. That makes me smile.
czcams.com/video/MW_4bb2hXYg/video.html
The indigenous people who live today care very much. We are in an era of great awakening & they know that, & have been patiently waiting for this time to come.
@@wcouch8 at least you had family support. I didn't have that growing up in my immediate family with my older and younger siblings. I was close to my oldest sister but she passed away in 2011. I have nothing to do with my living siblings.
Knowledge is what us natives need! We need to stand up n show our pride!
I have no one. Except the Universe, the Earth Mother, Father Sky, and Grandma Moon.
They are always with me. They guide me.
The Earth Mother gives me realizations.
My Celestial parents follow the one law of the Universe KINDNESS.
I needed this.
Hope you're safe and doing well Wally!
These devices are so addictive.
Yes they are! But without mine I would never have heard Wally's wisdom - balance is a good thing...
Like a voxxeen for ignorance... I identify as the Emperor of Arizona and I decree this mandated
@@DoctorDew He doth proclaimed!
@@lee.m.506 Balance and addiction are in many cases perfect antitheses to each other. I agree that smart phones bring a revolutionary number of benefits. But the drawbacks (addiction, stress, polarization) are optional for our service providers.
@@defenderofwisdom so let it be written! n stuff
I just like a lil Uncle Wally ...AND YOU WILL LIKE IT TOO! 😆
Real solid clear talk about something so important......
Your words have been around since ancient times. We need to hear them again because we forget so easily. Thank you for your confidence to bring them again and remind us of the beauty way and the peace we all need in our souls.
If we all spoke as you do, there would be more peace in our world and love for each other, and respect for the Creator and the earth.
Another priceless gem, some of Wally's previous videos have helped me walk in beauty and confidence is the one thing needed most now. Many thanks!
Me too. Reminds me of the lessons from my family growing up

@@trickywily2823 "Some of the first Europeans that the Native Americans would meet were often missionaries who looked upon Native American Spirituality practices as worthless superstition inspired by the Christian devil. These early missionaries then determined to convert the Native Americans to Christianity."
In REALITY, these Christians/Catholics SERVE the COYOTE
I agree with red man, ugh
My hand Cherokee and Cree daughter was not from my womb, but still resides in my heart and soul! I am White Wolf Woman! This my story! She was stoic, I taught her to stand up for herself! She thought she could never be a doctor, I helped her and taught her that being Cherokee and Cree she could be a doctor. Grades went from f's to straight a's. She was so beautiful! She was killed in a car accident!I have the nightmare of identifying her, bur she was decapitated. I had to identify her! The boy in the morgue had no idea! I literally almost my mind! She is on the reservation! I am blessed to have access to my love! I am White Wolf Woman, and this is my Story!
I send you all my love and support ! Your daughter is well where she is. Your love bonds you together forever and will stay alive.
I don't know you, but your story touched me. If you allow me, I would even dare to say : I love you.
Thank you for being able to find strength in vulnerability. You are yourself a wound-healer.
Sending you loving blessings 🙌 🙏 💛
what type of ridiculous bull is this lmfao
I would take her bull over yours any day😐
@@msmith7795 what bull are you talking about lol
Thank you Grandfather! I had to show my nephew once. "It's easy to tear a mans work down. You must point out the good things he has done. So he will be encouraged to continue with the work". He is a millionaire in Hawaii now. I am very proud of him. You are a good nephew! Jim BCC AZ
In these days of chaos, your wisdom sir is a beacon of truth, thank you....
You and your teachings are such a blessing to me. Negativity is harsh. Love and kindness are what we are meant to be and do.
A d do little in the world if often seems. Very pleased to have found this channel.🙂
Will play this video daily. Incredible words.
Thank you for sharing grandfather's wisdom. So many of us have no grandfather to guide us, these videos make a great and positive difference in my life.
This truth resonates with me.
My father is 91 and provides no direction in his family’s life only negative and doom. He wonders why none of his family calls him
This is the result of focusing on ones self and money.
Never get in the habit of complaining it will stay with you until you die.
@kitty Monster, hello, I hope that you are well. I appreciate you sharing this, as it puts into words something I was feeling, but was unable to clearly articulate. Without much at all by the way of parental guidance or wisdom from an elder's experience, one could say that I have been so lost. Videos like these are so valuable, and in hearing that it has made "a great and positive difference in your life", brings me a great deal of hope. Again, thank you for sharing your comment. May you be well, in good health, and have peace.
@@HelloL.G. Thank you. As we must walk alone sometimes in life, better to seek guidances to learn to live well, and walk in beauty. Good journey to you, may you always find the wisdom to recognize the wealth of wisdom, experience and tests in your path.
Good health to you, many blessings of fellowship and peace
@@PeaceJourney... Thank you!
I have to say this again: i wish CZcams would let me like the videos on this channel more than once. Thanks again for a great video!
Thank you!!!
Thank you Grandfather for all of your wisdom and teachings.❤🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thank you. ❤
Thank you
Thank you sir ❤
Thank you 🙏🌿
Thank you so much for sharing such beauty
I had a very toxic, unloving, loveless 1st family, Hence, no true role models I basically raised myself and followed my Heart path. However, the strength within me always knew to rise up and things would get better. Somewhere deep within my soul, I had and still do dig deep to find this. I was blessed to be gifted a wonderful pregnancy with identical twin sons. Now next month they will be 22 years old... and wow ~ yes listening to this audio here I see how I have been a wonderful role model of instilling Joy, Happiness, and COnfidence in these 2 young compassionate adventurous strong "Shaman". I am sharing this video now for them to listen to. Thank you! I really enjoyed this starting my day just after coming out of meditation.
Thank You Mr. Wally Brown! ❤🦅🌵
We do need more confidence in our lives, much love and thanks for sharing!
The most important to understand about it is, that self confidence comes from self doing. The more self reliant you are the better is your confidence.
I am not native American. But I grew up here, in southern Arizona.i love it, it is my home, I don't know anything else. I feel closer to the original people here, than I do anyone else. Your confidence helps my confidence. As a white person, how can I help the indigenous people I've come so accustomed to learning about. And feeling so close to?
Start with knowing the land. Keeping scared sites and monuments, safe and protected, from progressive Anglo society.
I know how you feel. I feel the same. I do not know exactly who my Native ancestors were. But I feel that if the mainstream society began to understand that the Earth is not a resource but a living breathing Being then maybe the destruction of the last 500 years might begin to end. The land is so important to Indigenous peoples and their sacred sites have been desecrated and sold. Culture and language is so important to all of the Native American communities. If we could heal our past, restore sacred sites, stop building gas pipelines that pollute the sacred waters, stop shaving off tops of mountains to build telescopes we could help Indigenous people by supporting what means most to them. America was once clean and beautiful and everyone would benefit from that.
Chief, You're the wisest man on Earth!
Thank you your wisdom is a gift 👍👍👍♥️
Just hearing you say the purpose of life is to have (and share) "joy, happiness, confidence and peace" lifts my heart!
Beauty is truth, and truth is beauty. Thank you for the blessing and teachings of your wisdom. Humanity needs it more than ever.
Thank you Wally from my heart ❤ may we all walk in beauty! Work where you are!
Be joyful in your song 🎵 💕
Thank you Wally for sharing your wisdom🙏❤️
Priceless is the knowledge you share, great strength honor and wisdom you have. Thank you for making this available
Mr. Brown is my adoptive grandfather. I love to listen to his teachings! Thank you so much!
I freaking love this man's frequency vibration, his wisdom, and his subliminal messages. Thank you for being the vessels of the light in this world earth & to our ancestors for being a part of guidance to our delivering 🙏🏽 I am so proud of the human race
Today I asked myself what is life to me. I’m not happy, tue people I love the most are gone. I got my siblings and my dad, but none understand what I have faced and what I face today. And some of my siblings despise me, even the care I did for them when I was growing up to help my parents when they both worked. I couldn’t play sports cause my siblings need babysat! I got bullied and belittle at school because of that. I hurt through all my elementary and junior high school. Today I feel lost but I go to work daily. Never met anyone and never had kids, and I still hurt.
Hello brother from another mother I wish for your heart to find peace which is available even given your circumstances please learn to dwell here and now and let go of heavy projections of the past
Most important rule in life:
Never eat the dirt, that other people throw to you!
And enjoy life in small self created feel good moments every day.
@@Chris-ce7ve *Good advice to live by I will follow it too*
A prayer for you to find happiness & have a good life Brother. ❤ 🌞 🌳
@@EvolutionWendy thank you a lot for the advice. It’s all I have to do nowadays.
Just about all people have treated me like a I don't matter my whole life. Never had a father figure in my life. I'm older now & really feeling bad about my whole life. I have a big problem with depression & anxiety. I hope I can put it together. I've never found a group of people that would accept me.
I wish I could find where I belong.
You sound like one of the special people on this earth who doesn't fit in just like we're told that we would be in the world, but not of it. I hope you don't mind me using scripture, but our Messiah said in Matt 11:28 Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”… Reading scripture just for the pure words and not for any type of religion, but just relationship with our Creator has been the thing that healed me from depression and anxiety. I have never found groups that accepted me either, but our Creator said He would never leave us nor forsake us. He has healed me in so many ways. His love is so great and He wants our love back. Many blessings to you friend, you're not alone.
I don't know why I felt compelled to share this with you, but I would highly recommend the book "The Drama of the Gifted Child" by Alice Miller.
It's okay (and necessary) to mourn the opportunities and care that were missed as a child. I sincerely hope you're doing okay these days.
Thank You Wally! being happy is so important to being able to get by. I am 54, and mentally often still around 12 laughing at farts and all the simple things in life.
..me too..70 years old..
Me 3 Smell ya later!😜🤭🤪😆🤣😂
I had a store in New York City where we would put a small fart machine into the drawers of the dresser that we were selling and watch the reactions of people, especially couples reacting to it. Nothing has ever made me laugh so hard over and over again then something as simple as that.
I have been watching these videos for two days now and I am in awe of the the wisdom of this man!! Outstanding video!!
The Purpose of Life, is the Evolution of the Soul. Nothing Else. 💯💚
Confidence takes time, it is worth the time to invest. This makes total sense, so true.
So true thank you Almighty God thank you for all you have provided for everyone for everyone on Mother Earth amen
Thank you, Hosteen Brown, for sharing this wisdom.
YOU ARE A BRIGHT STAR AMONG US
This is a powerful one. I just woke up from a dream that did not feel like a dream.
So very grateful for this teaching Grandfather and for the timing of it. There are many now in my life helping to restore that very thing and joy is returning. Thank you Grandfather for sharing your wisdom. Blessings to you and yours.
Yá'át'ééh grandfather! Thank you for your wise words. I need to work on my confidence more. Thank you.
This is wonderful footage from a man of dignity and compassion.
These words bring ballast to a ship during a life's storm.
Much Appreciated
Thank you Grandfather Wally.
Simple...........it is a challenge to "Walk in Beauty" . Your Words are Healing. I thank you, yet again💜 for the Truth.
🌎💞💝
It is a true gift to be able to hear your genuine wisdom.
I am thankful to this man, he is a great teacher!
I watched all his videos. They all touch my heart on such a deep level. I sob while listening to all the teachings. Thank you for making the videos. They are such a blessing to me.
I love your teachings uncle. Thank you for everything.
I can not express how thankful I am for the wisdom that this great elder shares. There are many of us out here who are dying of thirst of this wisdom. Ever grateful and many blessings to you and yours
Thank you, Sir. Wonderful teaching!
Great teaching, beauty is something I think everyone can connect with.
I gain the most confidence when I follow God's Commandments.
Yes! Being part of a loving community is so important! Even more so if one has lost all of his or her family! I had wonderful parents, who were always encouraging. Still...I wish I had learned this path of living in harmony with the Earth & being literally, grounded to the Earth! It’s when I’m out in nature by a singing brook, sitting on the grass, or on a rock, listening to a waterfall, or my feathered friends singing, that I feel I need nothing...I am whole...one with it all! I LOVE THAT! Thank you, Uncle Wally for sharing this vital wisdom! My heart overflows with tears in gratitude for it! 🙏🏼☀️
Thank you for putting yourself on my little box that I carry around looking at all the time!💕 Your an excellent example of how to be!
Uplifting ! Thank you , Mister Brown . Helpful , too .
This is a really good time for me to hear this talk. It's nurturing. Blessings to you with respect.
I can see that Wally is trying to help the young people out there ! Well, as a young person myself I can tell you that your work is great, it speaks directly to the soul. Everyone has that knowledge deep Inside. Thank you for remembering us to orientate our lives to the right light, in order to walk the right way !
Thanks and much to love to all my brother's and sisters !

Thank you for sharing your wise words
I am deeply grateful for the wisdom you share. Hearing you speak is balm for my heart and salve for my soul. Thank you.
One of the most beautiful things I ever experienced was in 1994 at the Drums around the world fest in the Mountains above Flagstaff, They had a Tent set up and it was raining after a dry spell and a rain dance. The drummers got done drumming and The speaker said Lets give thanks to The creator for the Rain. As soon as he said that a Thunder clap came from with in the tent. Dozens of people fell to their knees crying with joy because The spirit came to all there that day.
Lemlmts for sharing the words of the ancestors. Much gratitude for your teachings Grandfather. Joy, Happiness, confidence and peace to you.
I am not Dine', but my spirit belongs with them..I would want Wally to adopt me...he is like the grandfather I never had.
I maybe Native American on my biological father’s side...i don’t know, but I’d have loved an older brother like him, for sure! I’d like to write his name in for president, to be perfectly honest. - Cynthia
Encouragement to the people of Gaia.
Give love but don’t expect the same in return.
Glory be🌟
You bring joy to all of us !! Thank you for helping us walk in beauty ❤
Thank you Wally
You are appreciated 🙏🏽 and I feel blessed to have found your teaching of the Dinè 🪶
Thank you !
Thanks for your words of wisdom 👍🙏💯😊
Thank you for sharing.
Thank you ❤
Thank you for sharing your culture. I am white, and as a white person, I feel I do not deserve to learn from your culture because of what my people did to the native cultures. However, I am very grateful you have chosen to share these valuable lessons in an open and loving way. Thank you.
Thank you Wally for making us think about important things. All of us are sharing and that's a good thing. May America begin to walk in Beauty once again!! Greed gets us nowhere.
I’m 52 caring for my mom and I want to say thank you to spread wisdom is what makes you great
You are honored. Never forget it. Thank you. This helps me to never forget my upbringing. My grandfather lived in a white world but he was loved immensely. He never forgot his heritage or culture and he taught it to us, his descendants.
Amen 🙏
I have always loved Native Americans, and have been especially inspired by their natural beauty, which comes from being taught to be confident at a very young age, and to love who they are as human beings by learning in their youth about human nature(the good , bad & the ugly) and to be consistently encouraged by their Elders, so that they will grow confident & courageous to confront peacefully to whatever challenging situations & people especially that they meet on their Life Journey! I love these teachings thank you so much🙏😊💥🌈💖
So very true The great spirt has held your heart throughout this lifetime Thank you kind sir ❤
Thank you. I wish I had known a father or grandfather like you. I had no one and was disposable, throw away, for being a girl. I reparented myself and hope you don’t mind allowing me to see you as a grandfather. Even if we are close in age. Sometimes I just cry after hour videos they are so meaningful.
confidence has been my greatest challenge . Because of ten years in foster care .. it’s left a scar deep within .
Much appreciated these videos are being presented. Many teachings of Native Americans are absolutely one hundred percent correct. Had the white man followed theses teachings - from all native Americans - there would have been much more peace on this continent.
Thank you so much for your work. Your wisdom often hits my feelers at the perfect time, like the grandfather I never had, you literally brought tears to my eyes. What I needed to hear, right when I needed to hear it. You are helping people. Please keep sharing your wisdom!
Interesting perspective. I always enjoy these because they strangely line up with so many aspects of undiluted Christianity. It's as though you're describing different aspects of what is true and real. This video I didn't think I was going to agree with, but after listening to you, I find my understanding of the wholeness of truth, broadened with your wisdom. I have a lot of respect and admiration for the Navajo people. The wisdom you convey onto others is sorely missing in the lives of so many. I am thankful for your teachings, and I will honor you by carrying them with me onto my children.
I appreciate these videos so much. Thank you.
We All grow having positive thoughts and compassion for others and ourselves!
I have the greatest respect for you and the native American ways. These are the true ways!
Tonka! Always so good to have your teachings! ✨🌎✨
Thank you, sir, I needed to hear you right now. I will listen to you speak and I will retain, learn and try my best to manifest this in my life.
That is so beautiful.i feel so happy to hear you share your wisdom, teaching.
IF I WOULD HAVE HAD A DADDY LIKE HIM ID BE RULING THE WORLD OR VERY CLOSE TO IT. HE'S AMAZING AND TRUE 🙏 AND WISE.
It is a lovely philosophy, walking in beauty.
