Luisah Teish
Yoruba priestess and author
"Once I did an opera for the rain forest, and a little girl points at me and asks her mother, 'Is that Mother Earth?' For her I was the planet. I get chills when I think of it!"
Luisa Teish is a voodoo priestess and author of Jambalaya: The Natural Woman's Book of Personal Charms and Practical Rituals (Harper Collins). She teaches traditional shamanic and voodoo rituals to largely Anglo students at the University of Creation and Spirituality with the intention of teaching the white world about Africa and to offer traditional wisdom to people detached from their bodies and spirit.
