Queen Afua



Queen Afua is a holistic health practitioner. Author of three books, "Heal Thyself for
Health and Longevity" and "Sacred Woman,"  and "City of Wellness" that have a
divine message that resonates with today's stressed population.

Exuding a calm disposition and a shimmering, clean complexion, Queen Afua is a
tribute to the African legacy. Her contributions and work with women overcoming
difficulties has resulted in words of praise from a wide range of people including
celebrities who have turned to her for healing.

An expert nutritionist and famous herbalist, hatha yoga instructor, founder of womb
yoga, Ari ankh ka instructor and Khemetic Priestess, she is also founder and Director
of the Global Sacred Woman Village Centre. Queen Afua's ideas are based around
Afrocentric spirituality, she is a pioneer in the African-American women's health
movement and co-founder of the Heal Thyself Natural Living Centre in Brooklyn,
New York.

The courses and workshops that are designed for women focus principally around the
'womb centre'. Considered to be a focal point, it is a vortex of energy in the Kemet
traditions.  Therapies and techniques used in her work to help heal women include
fasting, detoxing, diet, dance, yoga, aromatherapy, positive affirmations and use of
ornaments and symbols and spas. The therapies are all natural and not only
strengthen the physical body within, but also have a knock on effect on the
psychology of women and how they perceive themselves. It's also a golden
opportunity for the beauty conscious to expel harmful toxins and improve the
complexion of the skin and hair.

Her reputation and skill have passed through word of mouth and now many
individuals have benefited from her work and support her methods.
