Healing Power of Shipibo Designs and Embroidery

In this short film the Shipibo Curanderas are telling about the healing power of their designs and the art of embroidery that they practice from generation to generation. In the western mindset, it is difficult to understand that designs can protect and heal. In Shipibo tradition you can put them on like a shield, so that they serve as a protection, and you can also sing them, and wear like an energy.
