Book Review Sacred
Woman: A
Guide To Healing The Feminine
A Khamitic Priestess, yoga teacher, herbalist and natural health and nutritional expert, who has a celebrity following which includes Erykah Badu, Iyanla Vanzant, Vanessa Williams and Roberta Flack, Queen Afua is 'dedicated healer of women's bodies and women's' soul'. The follow-up to her bestseller, Heal Thyself, Scared Woman guides you through a 21-day self help plan for harnessing the powerful energy force within to heal your life naturally. The issue of African (American) women's health has been Queen Afua's primary concern for over 20 years. She lectures extensively to colleges, universities and hospitals across the USA, as well as NASA, on the power of holistic health. So the advice is authoritative yet accessible. Her essays and articles have appeared in Essence Magazine, The Amsterdam News, Caribbean Life as well as other publications. The book opens with telephone dialogues between Queen Afua and three women suffering from chronic womb problems and the chilling statistics that African (American) women are more likely than European women to have a hysterectomy, are hospitalised longer and are at a higher risk for complications and death. Queen Afua's method for dealing with this imbalance is to blend an ancestral-rich spiritual cosmology with alternative medicine to teach women how to: prevent or eliminate womb diseases; heal from womb attacks such as rape, incest and other sexual abuses; and make childbirth easier; as well as tips on how to create self esteem and love, become more spiritually empower and attract a more divine partner. In reclaiming the wisdom of our ancestors, Part one focus on Khamitic philosophy and begins with the empowering words: "My people are the Elders of the Earth". Part two, features chapters on womb problems. There are advises, on how to detoxify emotionally and physically before commencing intensive womb rejuvenation work. Part three - The Nine Gateways - provides directions on how to resolve painful personal issues. With a good balance of information and practical exercises, you learn the importance of spiritualising your words, the food you eat, the space you live in and your relationships. Rated AG (Ancestral Guidance), this book
is highly recommend if you have an inner desire to (re)connect with
an important part of our cultural heritage and a must have if you are
serious about navigating your own path to lasting wellness. If not
Sacred Woman is such a beautiful and uplifting book, that you may just
want to purchase it for the sheer pleasure of adding colour to your
bookshelf and a sparkle to your eyes.
