A Familial Approach to Autoethnography: Six Epistemological Lessons 523
1. Realities and knowledges are messy, complex, and multiple. 524
2. We construct knowledges from a particular point of view within a particular context. 527
3. As we experience the world through and with our senses, we should also share worlds with sensory-aural, aesthetic, visual and verbal-discourses. 528
4. Knowledge construction is rooted in everyday, local contexts and local actions. 531
5. We enact change and create knowledge through mindful action. 534
6. Expanding and localizing knowledges are future challenges for autoethnography. 537

A Familial Approach to Autoethnography: Six Epistemological Lessons 523
1. Realities and knowledges are messy, complex, and multiple. 524
2. We construct knowledges from a particular point of view within a particular context. 527
3. As we experience the world through and with our senses, we should also share worlds with sensory-aural, aesthetic, visual and verbal-discourses. 528
4. Knowledge construction is rooted in everyday, local contexts and local actions. 531
5. We enact change and create knowledge through mindful action. 534
6. Expanding and localizing knowledges are future challenges for autoethnography. 537
