Sixteen years ago I felt angry, alone and lost as a brown-skinned person on this planet. On my first day at Clark Atlanta I was asked by a student where I was from. “I was born in Brazil and raised on Martha’s Vineyard” I said. He told me with laughter and exclamation “You ain’t Black!” I majored in history there, bitterly shocked that I learned more about African history in one year from the Ghanaian and Trinidadian teachers I had at the non-HBCU college I had attended before transferring than I did in three years at CAU. That student was right, I would never be Black as defined by the experience of African-Americans, nor did I desire to claim a history that was not mine. I graduated, disappointed but determined to find the truth I’d been searching for. All the money that I earned I invested in books and dvds about black history, health and consciousness. Among the books by many greats like Diop, Dr. Ben, Dr. Welsing, Woodson, Williams and Van Sertima, it was Runoko Rashidi’s book “African Presence in Early Asia” that first gave me a sense of confirmation as to how vastly the free spirit of Africans had soared through this world before our forced dislocation from the Motherland. This led me to his study of the Olmecs and my sense of belonging. For the first time I felt at home, connected and certain of my identity as an Original, Indigenous woman. I continued to learn from his adventures and contributions, and trust my own. In 2017 I traveled to southern India with his blessing and my camera, capturing just a glimpse of the evidence of African people and spirit like that he dedicated his life to honoring. Yesterday I revisited my bookshelf and reaffirmed how my knowledge of self that was inspired and grew from his search, acceptance and love of us, wherever we are and no matter where we’ve been, fuels my personal sense of identity, our collective connection to our African ancestors and my work. I declared that I will travel our world and let it, our ancestors and people be my greatest teachers. I thank you Runoko Rashidi for your message, rest in your power and with our love and gratitude. May your spirit continue to guide and protect us. Axé 🪶 https://www.instagram.com/p/CSIEvq4r5H1/?utm_medium=tumblr
I Listened to Spirit Speak… She Told me it was time… So I unlocked her… And so we fly. Like I placed every step and took in every breath along my 9 year journey to grow the most beautiful, strong and self-loving locs, I walked hand-in-hand with my Self back through every knot, tangle and curve to where it all began. Some were heavy, in my hand and on my heart, I watched as pain and fear released with strands that were no longer a part of me. Others light while full of cherished memories, epiphanies of self-wisdom and sovereignty. Hours in front of a mirror made me see myself, the mirror that I am, the one that reflects what lights my spirit up, lifts my awareness of my purpose and lets me rest in this pure love. Crowned, unlocked, free, I breathe, I spiral, and I am pure spirit. 🪶 #hairstory #naturalhair #afro #curls #healthyhair #locs #locksoflove #hairstyles #hairjourney #locjourney #hair #brazilian #brasileira #afrobrazilian #selflove #selfcare #curly #curlyhair #natural #42yearsold #birthday #maat #40andfabulous #40something #agewithgrace (at Atlanta, Georgia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRM4_xUjYG1/?utm_medium=tumblr

Day 12 of of my 7-day live food cleanse! Yes, my reward is a pot of gold! Or a bowl of mangoes, however you want to look at it. My sense of wealth has returned from a space where I was worried about money and status to a place where I feel an abundance of wealth in my health. Some other benefits I’m enjoying are: - healthier gut - clearer skin - less mucus - clearer eyes + vision - increased mental clarity - better sleep - less anxiety - increased will power - connectedness - greater self-respect I have returned to my spirit. It felt doubly painful to be in a state of dis-ease after investing so many years in my self-healing, but it is doubly wonderful to have returned to my self, my voice, my heart. I am not picking up where I left off or starting over again. I welcome the lifetime that this journey is and how sweet it tastes on my tongue, skin and soul, and I continue on. 🥭 (at Poncey-Highland) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRFPP0iDZ9X/?utm_medium=tumblr
What Day 5 of my living food cleanse looks like: Veggie Stir Fry-less with Cauliflower Rice I’m getting so much freedom back through this journey. I’m feeling lighter and my joints feel smoother. My eyesight is clearer and my brain is more focused. My tastebuds and my gut are so happy with the food I’m consuming. My time is freed up from cleaning pots and pans, my pocket is fuller without those extra ingredients, my house smells fresher from fresh ingredients and I’m saving money from not cooking. This lifestyle has snatched me back to my reality, one in alignment with nature, one where I live longer and thrive in wellness of body, mind and spirit. #livefood #raw #rawvegan #vegan #rawfood #yogafood #onahawk #onahawkyoga #uncooked #foodfreedomforever #heathyvegan #freshfood #vegetarian #vegetables #plantfood #plantbased (at Poncey-Highland) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQzFCh8D_RU/?utm_medium=tumblr

Raw food is real food. Happy to be back in my live food healing kitchen! One of the perks of making my own living food is that I get to enjoy gourmet quality with just a few ingredients and so little time. My first day of my cleanse I consumed only 8 oz of unrefined virgin olive oil and lemon juice. It forced me lie down most of the day and cleaned me out, and on day two my appetite came back with a roar. I wanted everything I couldn’t have like salt, sugar, bread, even craving things I don’t like. So I remembered that I am doing this to change my rewards program, to treat myself with things that are good for me. And not just good for my health but for all of my senses beyond taste. I would pay a chunk of money at a fancy restaurant for this dish, but I feel I payed myself back with the love and energy I put into this and received from it. You can recreate almost anything you desire in this kind of relationship with your food. You don’t have to kill it or cook it to enjoy the flavors you know and don’t want to give up. 🌿 #livefood #livingfood #raw #rawfood #rawvegan #raw #rawcuisine #gourmet #gourmetraw #sunfood #onahawk #onahawkyoga #cleanse #rawfoodcleanse #realfood #plantfood #plantbased (at Poncey-Highland) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQt_Og1jot0/?utm_medium=tumblr
Tonight I affirm my birthright to health in spirit, mind and body. “Let food be thy medicine, let medicine be thy food.” -Imhotep Why a cleanse? I want to eliminate the toxicity from my unhealthy relationships with people, food, money and love. I do need all of these things, but I must release the negative and low vibrational emotions that are reluctant to let go from them. Over the last two years my struggle with stress, emotional imbalance and fear took back control over my life. It is scarier to live there then it is to share this here. The worst part was feeling a disconnection from my spirit, intuition and ancestors, these guides who led me to the very tools I am gifted with to fix myself. But I’m not broken. I’m experiencing a state of dis-ease caused by not living in alignment with my truth. It’s when I remembered and accepted that I need to “heal” myself instead of “fix” that I felt ready and capable to return to the ways that empower me. How did I start? I have been “planning” for this cleanse since the lunar eclipse on June 10, a month before my 42nd birthday. That took planting the seed in my mind and giving myself time to move toward this cleanse with compassion and forgiveness for the times when my will power sneaks away. I did not enforce any new rules on myself, but I practiced with the Four Agreements and I wrote down why I wanted to cleanse, making sure this next journey to my wellness is rooted in my truth. To my surprise, this work alone helped me wean off of my desire for fool’s food (overcooked, packed and processed) and my dependency on the judgement of others. Since the solstice on June 20, I have been “preparing”. I used to have success with going cold turkey, but I have changed and I needed to honor this now. This was a week of instilling in my daily life more sunshine, supportive people and changing the food, water and energy that I consumed. I noticed myself paying attention to the number of times I chewed my food, that I was leaning deeper into my yoga practice, and I naturally started to crave healthy things to reward myself with. Tomorrow I begin my 7-day raw plant food cleanse🌿MA’AT https://www.instagram.com/p/CQmy4_0j25N/?utm_medium=tumblr
My yoga practice seems out of this world sometimes. It’s where I feel safe from the oppression, brutalization and murder of our ancestors, us and our children. It’s where I am great as who I am, in the this body, in this skin. It’s where I forget the lies that are put in our schools, history, televisions, phones and food. It’s where I can recharge, repair and care for myself so that I can be joy and love in this life under the sun! 42 RA Salutations There are 42 Principles of Maat. These are affirmations recorded in ancient Kemet text that guided our ancestors to live in balance, harmony and order with nature. RA is the name of the Sun Deity in ancient Egyptian mythology that symbolizes the power and energy of the sun that gives us light and life. This Kemetic Yoga ritual empowers us to live more vibrantly. It strengthens the connection between us and our ancestors through the spirit that is breath. While it heals and aligns the body, it transcends us to a higher mental state of consciousness and awareness. This is where I am safe, great, in my truth and healing in this world.

Meditating on the dark that has brought me into this light. My light. Coming out from a year deep within feels like a rebirth, again. Maybe I didn’t think I could heal again. If I’m honest, I thought I could return to unhealthy habits and be strong enough to stay as easily connected to my spirit and truth. But where was the gentleness I had learned and wanted to be the glue between the parts of me? I felt so confused, afraid and lonely but that was not the truth of who I am. I was in great denial of my magical powers. Exhausted from searching because I felt I hadn’t found them yet, but sitting in my shadows with my imbalance of emotions, they began to reveal that I’ve always had them. So this is what it feels like, to be real, human, woman, a mirror, alive. To know me and to share me. This longest day of sunlight reminds me that I can see myself and know myself in the light. Each day I have the opportunity to know the two shades of me, my day and my night, my dark and my light.
