From an early age, Baba Luiz has been a student and practitioner of Candomblé. He gained his knowledge of the religion through immersion in Candomblé’s oral traditions and from working with some of the leaders from the most traditional Candomblé houses in Salvador, Bahia, including his own Ilê Axé Kalé Bokun. Dr. Moreira has conducted numerous talks and courses on the Orixa in both Brazil and the United States. He is passionate about protecting nature as well as the use of herbs and plants in his practice. His unique combination of expertise in medicine and Candomblé spiritual traditions provides a holistic approach to healing and well-being.
