Could this language, which has become synonymous with historical figures like Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Harriet Tubman, Frederick Douglass, and Harriet Jacobs—each of whom were forced to struggle and fight to experience freedom and exercise the fullness of their personal autonomy— contain a message for the people of today who find themselves struggling to maintain autonomy over their own bodies and individual freedom?
And what about the spirituals they sang, or the speeches they orated? Could they, along with the biographies that purport to narrate their lives, reveal something deeper and more complex than the literal meaning of words expressed in them?
What if we told you there was more?
As an author and Divine SelfQare Practitioner, Sheila Brown unveils the secrets that reconnect present generations to the same source of knowledge and power that once empowered their ancestors with the might to overcome bondage.
Each chapter takes you on a journey alongside the formerly enslaved people and their descendants to use their sacred knowledge of natural medicine and healing modalities to free themselves from the chains of slavery and a kind of medical exploitation that ran along a spectrum of two extremes: total neglect or unimaginable violence.
It was their belief in the Most High and their wisdom that led them to freedom and empowerment. It is through revelation of these secrets that the Divine SelfQare philosophy of this book emerges.
With every new page, The Divine SelfQare Strategy creates a paradigm shift in ways our generation can pursue health and wellness by looking beyond surface beauty such as facials, manicures, and pedicures, and refocusing on ancient wellness traditions that beautify both body and mind.
From the depths of hidden texts and scripts, along with the oral tradition of ancestral African women, Sheila narrates her book to her future grand and, possibly, great-grandchildren.
Through her writing, she expresses inner thoughts and divine insights about the past to allow the reader to deeply immerse into a conversation between a wise native old woman, teaching her adoring grandchildren about the beautiful concepts of this book.
From her words, dripping with wisdom, the reader can hear her educate her grandchildren about the ancient ways of her people—regaling well-hidden secrets of her ancestors and their ingenuity during slavery, and way beyond that period to a peaceful and prosperous time during the reigning of great Ethiopian empires.
