Once you are able to master food, you can master anything else in life. Being responsible for preparing my own fresh food every day (and not being able to rely on takeout or anyone else to prepare my nourishment) allowed me to develop a way of life that supported having a routine of health and wellness. For the last year, I had learned to avoid the temptations of eating disease-causing processed foods, meat and dairy in social settings (like cookouts or birthday parties) and I committed to eating food medicine - alkaline fruits, vegetables, whole grains and herbs. I believe I was able to stick to the Sacred Woman program so easily because I was already so disciplined in a key area of life. When I started Sacred Woman, I was already an alkaline, raw vegan. In Gateway 2 of Sacred Woman, titled “Sacred Food,” she teaches us how to consume at the highest and purest level - including anything that comes into your divine space, whether it be food or ideas or men! Whatever we consume we become,” says Queen Afua. “What we consume dictates who we are and what we are. With that in mind, here are four things I learned along my Sacred Woman journey, that will help you begin (or continue) your own: If you need help getting through Queen Afua’s Sacred Woman gateways or developing your own Womb Wellness plan, book a consultation here. I know many women who have this Bible on their bookshelf, but they never seem to have time to crack it open, and so they may never get all the jewels from the book that they need. Sacred Woman can be intimidating when you first open it.
Although I went through the Sacred Woman journey by myself, without the support of a Sister Circle, I still felt guided by my elders and ancestors in a way I imagine many women have in the past, thanks to the care and wisdom Queen Afua puts in this book. I found sources of strength and self-worth that I never knew existed I found the divine feminine within. I stepped into my womanhood fully, finally, and learned a lot about myself, my relationships with others, and my faith. I call Sacred Woman the “Black Woman’s Bible,” because it will get you together on so many levels. Last month, I finished Queen Afua’s nine-step program in Sacred Woman: A Guide to Healing the Feminine Body, Mind, and Spirit.
