Women's Wisdom From the Heart of Africa

In the Dagara tribe of West Africa, women are valued as the source of the world’s wisdom. They are valued as dreamers, as diviners, as the backbone of the community—the core of human survival. But what can the teachings of this indigenous culture show us that will transform the way we live? On Women’s Wisdom from the Heart of Africa, Sobonfu Somé—author, teacher, and the first woman empowered by the Dagara elders to impart their teachings to the West—invites you to peer into a world where people remain closely connected to nature, their ancestors, and spirit, and to learn how to use powerful rituals to restore balance within yourself and with those around you.
