Description:

After a seven-year apprenticeship with reknown Griqua healer Oom Johannes Willemse, Antoinette Pienaar now writes about the healing powers of Karoo herbs. About how they can move you, for Oom Johannes's approach heals not only body, but also soul. In The Griqua's Apprentice you will find the essence of it. With insight and empathy, and always ready with an anecdote, she shares her knowledge and Oom Johannes's wisdom and the ancient healing arts of the Karoo compassionately and wholly. Enriched with photographs, stories, advice and indices, this is as much a reference as it is a storybook.
