About Tamira
Alaafia,
My name is Tamira pronounced (Tuuuh-Mee-Rah). I am a student and medium of ancestral and earth-honoring wisdoms and ritual facilitation.
My people descend from lands of West Africa by way of Alabama, Ohio, and Indiana and also from the Irish and British Isles. I grew up primarily in Atlanta in a loving Muslim home run by powerful women.
My Ori has guided me towards the exploration of embodied ancestral connection and healing practices centering liberation. My exploration of these practices continue to be informed by my initiations into Afro-Brazilian earth-honoring traditions, studies of Black liberation theologies and West African Ifa Òrìṣà tradition.
I am dedicated to co-weaving liberated, reverence filled ritual containers and intergenerational ancestral connections across space and time. I am honored to co-weave containers and connections which facilitate transformation, healing and celebrate all forms of ancestral diversity through embodied practice, ritual and song.
I now live with my kinfolk on traditional Catawaba & Eno territory.
In connection & care,
Tamira Cousett
