Ancestral Healing Project

June 13 – 17 2020

Day 1: Connection + Setting Intention

Day 2 : Feeling Into It

You know the term, To feel is to heal. When we slow down enough to ask the body what it needs and what it wants, humans can consciously shift the way we move in relationship to life and to one another through the gate of your feeling body.

Our patterns and ways of being with one another are imprinted at an early age and are carried through codes in the DNA from our ancestors. As you know, when you look deeply into why you are the way you are, many patterns emerge that were formed way before you were born. Accessing that information is available in energy patterns through listening and noticing how you feel about people, places, and situations throughout your life.

Your feelings are a crucial way to uncover the magical design that makes up who you are.

DAY #3: Forgiveness & Compassion

Journal Questions

Are you holding on to victim or oppressor mindsets?

• How does that play out in your life?
• Where have you played these roles?

As you get a sense of some of the feelings you have about stories and beliefs your family held onto or you may be holding onto.

• Are there some particular stories that you would like to change?
• What are they?

Tune into all the feelings, including emptiness or detachment, grief or anger and look at yourself honestly.

• Breathe and open your compassionate heart space to the stories that come up.
• Meditate, breathe and journal

DAY #4: Letting Go

Karma is an interesting thing. I recently heard a video from my Indian Guru that trying to trace where your karma comes from is like trying to trace the entire path of the life of a bird. You just can’t do it. But it does not mean that path does not exist.  In that way, we all have karma and our actions from the past create the present.  We have racial and ancestral karma. We have past life karma. I feel we are going through a collective purification of karma right now.

Today. I invite you to plant a seed to let go of the karma that you have been holding onto in your family line

To start, tune into your intention for this 5 Day Immersion. When you started this immersion, you made an intention. Intention is powerful. It can even heal cancer.  It is what you want to manifest. It is your prayer.

When you hold your intention to awaken and serve in a sacred way over time, you can heal your past, get guidance in the present, and manifest a new way of being and creating in the world.

I want to invite you to clear anything in the way of you manifesting that intention. Today, you are being invited to let go of any stories you are holding that may be in the way of you stepping forward to take action.

This may require you to suspend disbelief. Or giving your monkey mind a banana

It is going to take all of us to heal racism. As part of this project, you have been studying your family history, leaning in and connecting with your heart.To heal the past and move forward, we must be willing to let go and be open to a new way

CLEARING CEREMONY

Here are a few suggestions to do your clearing ceremony. Integrate some of these or all of these elements or do your own

• AIR: burn sage, cedar, sweetgrass or copal or other medicine you prefer.  Singing from your heart and speaking your intention are powerful ways to set the stage for your ceremony.
• WATER: 1. Have a glass of water to pray into and then pour out as an offering. 2. Do a sacred bath ritual, clearing your cells. Try half baking soda and half sea salt to purify your field.
• FIRE: Have a candle or fire present : you may choose to write out feelings and stories you want to clear and then burn them
• EARTH: Cook some food (perhaps traditional recipe) and offer it to your ancestors.

REMEMBER TO GIVE THANKS when you are complete ( You can’t mess this up if you stay in love)
