The Skin & The African Sponge

The Skin & The African Sponge

Great Kujichaguilia in this week of Ujima. Fam I am glad to bring you something that I ran into while I was in Ghana on my trips. Once i started using it, I never went back. I have been using the African sponge for almost 20 years, and my skin looks good because of it. But before we get into the african sponge I want to look at the importance of the largest or 2nd largest organ (I believe the microbiome is bigger) the skin.

"I have been using the african sponge for almost 20 years, and my skin looks good because of it."

Your skin is one of your body's largest organ, so it only makes sense that you should take care of it. But how do you know what to do? From cleaning the skin to removing makeup, there are so many products and tips on how to care for your skin, but it can get a little confusing sometimes. Especially for Black folks, because all of the skin commercial don't address our needs. We have to learn through experimentation, unless we are lucky enough to have someone in our circle who has figured out what we need for our skin.

"So when you are washing your skin, are you doing it right?"

In this video, we will be taking a look at the skin and the importance of keeping it clean. We will also be discussing using the African sponge because it is an environmentally friendly way to cleanse. As well us help keep your skin healthy, because the rough texture helps remove dirt from your skin.

"By using the African sponge you can cleanse your skin."

The skin is made up of three layers: epidermis (the outermost layer), dermis (the middle layer), and hypodermis (the innermost layer). The epidermis contains dead cells called keratinocytes while the dermis contains blood vessels, nerves, and sweat glands. The hypodermis connects to muscles and bones through tendons and ligaments; it also contains fat cells that help keep us insulated from heat loss in cold weather conditions. The combination of all three layers makes up our skin, which is the largest organ in our body.

"What you don't know about your skin could kill you."

Our skin is constantly shedding dead cells from the epidermis, and these cells can end up clogging pores if they're not removed properly. Sponges are an effective way to remove dead skin cells because of their rough texture; this helps exfoliate the skin and prevent clogged pores. In addition to helping keep your skin healthy, sponges are also environmentally friendly since they can be reused multiple times before being disposed of.

"Sponges are a great way to keep your skin healthy! "

Grab yourself a sponge and get to scrubbing, and do to the large size you will never have problems washing your back again. Just watch the video and be sure to share and help us grow.

How to pour Libations

Image
We pour libations/ to connect with all that is/ and to cleanse our hearts/ I need to start this article by stating this information is based on my personal experience. I have been pouring libations for at least 20 years all over the country and personally. Libations for me is a process of remembering, and connecting or re-connecting to not only the Spirit but everything around us . When we pour libations we are opening ourselves as well as the group to the axe ' of the entire Universe . I first must admit that I do not belong to a group, sect or religious order. I am a lay man who have made a personal connection with the world, and the spirit. By pouring Libations we strengthen these relationship. So let me define a few things first so that we can be on the same page. Libations - the process of pouring or giving a sacrifice to form a connection with this world and the spiritual realm. Spirituality - the state of establishing and maintaining relationships Axe...

The Art of Adaptation: Unveiling the Wisdom of The Bat and The Weasels

  The Art of Adaptation: Unveiling the Wisdom of The Bat and The Weasels “It is wise to turn circumstances to good account.” — Aesop In the world of fables, we often find animals acting out the deepest parts of our humanity. These creatures, symbols of instinct and survival, carry lessons older than time itself. The Bat and The Weasels , retold from the mind of Aesop and reimagined through the lens of Gye-Nyame Journey, isn’t just a tale for children—it’s a guide for those grown folks who still seek mastery. When the World Has You Cornered Here’s the setup: A bat falls to the ground and is caught by a weasel. The weasel hates birds. So the bat, slick with the tongue, says, “I’m not a bird—I’m a mouse.” The weasel lets him go. Later, the same bat falls again. This time, a different weasel catches him. But this weasel hates mice. So what does the bat say? “I’m not a mouse—I’m a bird.” And he gets set free again. Now, you could say the bat was being dishonest. But hold on. Let’s go de...
