Priestess of Osun-My Practice DVD and 40 Page booklet Zamani Refuge producers, Rainer Doost and Valeria Watson-Doost present a side of traditional West African religious practice seldom seen in the west. Valeria whose spiritual name is Osunyemi, shares her daily practice in a way that educates and inspires. She explains what Orisa are, what rituals and offerings are and how to set up basic altars. This is a personal journey of an African-American woman raised southern Baptist searching for and finding her indigenous African culture and religion. The importance of ancestor reverence and ancestor altars are shown in depth through an inspiring tour of Osunyemi’s own ancestor altar. As a priestess of Osun, Osunyemi communicates the importance of bringing this ancient practice to 21-century practitioners. The 94-minute DVD also includes a 40-page booklet that she calls a ‘quick start’ to understanding and practicing the religion. This combination of DVD and booklet present an interesting and insightful documentation of an emerging African spiritual practice.
