seminar summary
In this deeply insightful, experiential seminar, a team of Yoruba ritual specialists from Osogbo Kingdom will introduce you to THREE CATEGORIES of Yoruba medicine and healing practices. In addition, they will demonstrate how Yoruba traditional medicine can help you create optimal health for you and your family. According to classical Yoruba teachings on health and wellness, sickness is determined three ways: ‘Amutorunwa’, that which accompanies you from heaven, ‘Iran’ that which you inherit and ‘Afise’ that which is caused by affliction. When health is compromised, people traditionally seek the services of an Onisegun (herbalist) or a Babalawo (diviner). In this full day seminar, the elders will unravel the spiritual foundations of Yoruba traditional medicine. Furthermore, they will elaborate upon the method of healthcare, diagnosis, treatment and specialization with Orisa Lifestyle. Topics include:
