Sangoma Videos

I was clear fascinated with the Sangoma, (or Healing Lady), in Zululand.

Here are some videos. The first in the Sangoma herself, with apprentices on the left. Turn up the volume to get the total effect. They're really getting in 'the zone'! And no, I'm pretty sure there were no recreational pharmaceuticals involved.

And here's our son getting his feet washed. He can't walk, so they got him a plastic chair -  the only seat in the house. The Sangoma indicated to the apprentices to carry the tub over to make sure his feet were washed too.

 And finally, here are the girls and me, balancing precariously as we get our feet carefully bathed.
