Working with the water element allows us to visit our own energy blockages on a deeper level.

It is an invitation to release what we are holding. To let go of what is passing through us and more importantly what is stored within our lineage.

Developing Meditation

Developing meditative practices working with the water element holds the intention to help clear through the power centres.

To remove the blockages, we have manifested through our lived experiences.

To help release what we have inherited through our lineage.

Through the Body

As our energy flows through the body like a river the awareness of our blockages can be explored through what we consciously choose to hold. However, the discovery of deeper blockages stems from what has been passed through our bodies, due to what is in our lineage.

This means that we are often storing, within our body, the traumas of our ancestors even though we have not experienced the trauma for ourselves.

Working with the water provides a space where we can clear ‘what is our own’ and ‘what is our ancestors’.

Holding on

As human beings we must choose to hold on. We consciously make a choice to hold our resentment, our anger, our rage, our sadness. We cannot let go. We cause our own blockages through this choice.

Holding on to temporary emotions we chose not to let them pass. To not let them flow through the river. To pass through the body. To let them go.

When we do this work on a conscious level, we can release these temporary emotions from ourselves. We release that which is temporary allowing it to pass through us.

But what happens when we are not aware of the blockage?

How can we release something if we are not conscious that we are holding it?

The river of our lineage

We have the opportunity in this lifetime to clear what is passed through our lineage.

The fundamental clearing helps the inner river to flow. It is a difficult process to allow what is stored unconsciously to pass through us. First, we must bring this to consciousness.

More importantly we must implement practices to help us release what is stored within the body. What is passing through us, which is not our own.

The river of energy flows through us like the blood flows through our veins. We cannot change what is in the bloodline, but we can do the service to our ancestors of releasing it.

When we discover what we are holding within the body. What is ours. What we are holding as the self. We can then do the deeper work to clear what is passing through us. What is in the blood.
