Find something that speaks to you, take what you like and leave the rest.Įva Yaa Asantewaa is a New York City poet, dance journalist, counselor, holistic healer and educator.For two decades, hundreds of thousands of women have turned to Sacred Woman, hailed as the “Woman’s Bible” by many of her fans, for Queen’s guidance and wisdom on self-healing, holistic wellness, and spiritual practices. At 400 pages, there is something of value for even the greatest skeptic. Sacred Woman offers powerful, effective tools to help you get there. Despite the often-daunting intricacy of her program, Queen Afua has one simple message: know yourself and the divinity within you-a worthy goal. each day-regardless of work, school or family demands-to practice a healing ritual, or, for example, to give up wearing pants to liberate the flow of energy. She means it when she asks women to put Spirit first in their lives: to rise at four a.m. What makes Queen Afua's manual unique is its Khamitic context, its focus on womb wellness and its evocative format-a series of initiatory gateways designed to transform black women into the powerful whole queens we were born to be. If you've read books on spiritual healing by Luisah Teish, Caroline Shola Arewa, Diane Stein or Denise Linn, you'll recognize much of what Sacred Woman has to offer-how to work with color, crystals, candles, incense, herbs, essential oils, words of power or simply bathing in delicious silence. Queen Afua covers extensive ground from holisitic nutrition to meditation, from journaling to skin care and self-adornment. Every woman, from girlhood, should have as optimistic and resourceful a mentor as this talented educator. Queen Afua, perhaps the best-known advocate for Khamitic (Egyptian) spirituality and natural health, has now pulled her philosophy and practices together into a book expressly for women of African descent.
