Women's Wisdom from the Heart of Africa

Sobonfu Somé, whose name means "keeper of the rituals," shares in this 7-hour, 6-CD set, the spiritual teachings of the Dagara tribe of West Africa, where women are valued as the source of the world's wisdom.

In this audio series, she invites the listener to peer into a world where people remain closely connected to nature, their ancestors and spirit. Distilling the essential practices of her people, Sobonfu Somé teaches how to "check in" with spirit to receive guidance; observe the sacred spaces in a home; harness the energy of the elements, strengthen relationships and create balance in daily life.

She is the founder of Ancestors Wisdom Spring, an organization dedicated to the preservation and dissemination of indigenous wisdom. Her books include: The Spirit of Intimacy, Welcoming Spirit Home, and Falling Out of Grace: Meditations on Loss, Healing and Wisdom.
