Dona Redonda and the Ancient Art of Blessing

By Adriano Novo

"Dona Redonda and the Ancient Art of Blessing" rescues the strength of Brazilian popular tradition, blending Indigenous, African, and European wisdom in the practice of benzimento (blessing). Through the gentle yet firm voice of the Preta Velha Dona Redonda, the book presents foundations, rituals, prayers, the use of herbs, candles, water, chants, and gestures that have been passed down for generations as sources of healing, protection, and faith.
Written in clear and accessible language, the author offers both a practical and spiritual guide, filled with stories, teachings, and reflections that show how faith can transform everyday life. More than a manual, this work is an invitation to recognize spirituality in humble gestures, in the invisible embrace, and in the power of love.
