A medicine bag is usually a small pouch, worn by some Indigenous peoples of the Americas, that contains sacred items. A personal medicine bag may contain objects that symbolize personal well-being and tribal identity.[1][2] Traditionally, medicine bags are worn under the clothing.[3] Their contents are private, and often of a personal, spiritual, and religious nature.[4]
