Breathing With Orisha introduces the use of Orisha dance, song, and prayer as a tool for deep breathing, meditation, and spiritual clarity. It presents the healing philosophy and practical, daily breathing benefits of Orisha dance and song rituals. The book explains how these rituals help you to free yourself from the stagnation caused by racial oppression, global erasure of, and violence against Black Humanity. It also shares how the practice of these daily exercises helps you to examine and re-discover your spiritual power within the context of African traditional beliefs. Breathing With Orisha is dedicated to archiving and shining a light on the respiratory rituals and ancestral healing methods of the Orisha diaspora around the world. The offerings within the book help to restore physiological balance to the Black Body, increase the spiritual-emotional intelligence of the Black Heart while challenging the mental slavery of the Black Mind. Breathing With Orisha reminds us that our dance and song (no matter how flattering or unflattering) are the respiratory rituals and medicines created for us to keep on breathing.
