Re(s)parations -Breathing With Orisha | Kìire Wellness

Breathing yet again reminds us that she’s precious.

For black people disproportionately so.

Breathing with Orisha helps to repair what has been broken, providing language to help one see the intention behind many rituals still practiced today.

The energy from these rituals like movement and song, respiratory rituals that keep our bodies, hearts, and lungs strong, our spirits hella grounded and our exhales hella long,

stress/less thriving through duress,

breathing deeply by vocalizing the new and soon to be sacred neighborhood resilience flex

That energy has been rerouted like electricity
into corporate making money off my hips and feet,

my respiration used to power entertainment industry,

I take it back, my respiration’s only used for me.

Pay me, I’m healing. America.

Dedicated to All Black Lives, because they matter.

Movement- Orisha Oya and Vogue, specifically blended to inspire young Black Afro descendant LGBT youth to embrace their Vogue because it’s sacred, born from Afro ancestral tradition and divine in its placement. The arms of vogue invoke the ceremonial movement of Oya. The divine feminine embodied in the spine, undulating sacred curvature. A deep connection to the spirit, to every muscle and bone within the body, for to extend and to bend is to exhale passed what they taught us was the end.
