Summary
Twenty Bushman healers from the Kalahari Desert in Botswana share their knowledge and wisdom about healing the human body, mind, and spirit. Traditional Bushman healing most often involves the intimate touch of shaking bodies aroused by the singing and rhythms of ecstatic dance. Invited by the Bushman to join their dance, the author documents firsthand its colour, energy, and power with descriptive text, personal interviews, and exciting photographs of the ceremonies. The combined stories, illustrations, and recording provide a unique insight into this fascinating demonstration of a mystical healing power. Includes audio CD.
