FollowingAncestors EarthWisdom, is presenting an evening seminar on
the Ancient Gypsy Healing Art of HandWalking tonight,
Thursday July 27, 7:30 p.m. to 10 p.m. Predating the Buddha, this
ancient form of “medical palmistry” as an expansive form of healing
will be discussed, along with hands-on training in simple
techniques of hand line stimulation. Yracébûrû is a Romani

form. This program will serve as an introduction to the upcoming
Keepers of the Faith 1st Annual Womyn’s Conference to be held in
Santa Barbara, December 3-6, 2006. For information, contact Connie
