Connecting with the Child: Firedance
Breath is Spirit. The act of breathing is Living. — Author Unknown
Visualize your child self. If she smiles and hugs you, all is well. Just nestle her into your heart center or belly brain, and five times a day BREATHE.
If you have difficulty visualizing (or “mentalizing”) your child self, or you don’t feel a loving flow back and forth, then get a photograph of yourself at the youngest age where there is a happy memory, and learn to bring THAT image to mind.
If you have no happy healthy memories of childhood, then your 10–20 minute Morning Ritual can start there. Sit quietly and take your pulse at the wrist. FEEL your way into your heartbeat. Drop your breathing down to your “Belly Brain.” Now: see/feel yourself PREGNANT with your own “child”. With yourself. Or, feel yourself AS an embryo, nestled safely in the womb. From there, you can feel the heartbeat, the very beacon of life.
At some point, you will work through the obstructions that keep you from making a healthy connection. Might take minutes, might take months. But you WILL. And when that child opens her eyes and looks at you with love, ask her what she wishes from you.
I cannot overstate how powerful this process can be. Just beginning it automatically gives you your 1% improvement this week.
