Welcome Mama.
Today we will be doing an ancestral support practice.
So when you're ready,
Find a comfortable position.
Close your eyes.
Start to connect to the breath.
Allowing the belly to soften.
Your shoulders to fall.
Letting out an audible exhale if that feels good.
Continuing to elongate the breath.
You may be feeling that it's one of those days where you feel incapable.
Or that your wounds are coming up too much.
But it's all too much for you to handle.
And you may wish to call in your ancestors for support.
Our ancestors gave us more than wounds.
More than trauma.
And regardless of your relationship to them,
Their soul essence is here to support you.
With your exhale you can release what's no longer serving you.
What you're holding on to.
The weight of trying to reparent yourself and parent your baby.
Breathing awareness into the body.
Sending love to the places that aren't feeling so good right now.
And allowing the places that do feel good to send that energy throughout the body.
Allowing the breath to hold you.
And you can imagine that in back of you,
Slightly to your left,
Is the soul essence of your mother.
She comes and places a hand on your left shoulder.
And no matter your relationship with your mother,
She is here to support you.
And hold space for everything that is coming up for you.
For everything that you're experiencing right now.
She is sending love.
Filling you with the confirmation that you can do this.
You don't need to figure out all of the hows or the whys.
You showing up for yourself.
Changing patterns,
Being present,
Responding rather than reacting.
Simply being here is enough.
Simply being here is enough.
Behind your mother,
Your mother's mother comes to stand behind her.
Slightly to her left,
Puts a hand on her shoulder.
You feel the soul essence of your grandmother.
No matter your relationship,
No matter if she's physically here or not.
You feel the unconditional support and love from your maternal line.
From your maternal line.
And all of the women from your maternal line show up to your left and back of one another,
Arms on each shoulder.
You are held and supported.
Their wisdom and experiences are in your blood.
Live through you and your energy.
And allow you to show up as the mother and woman you wish to be.
And to your right,
The soul essence of your father comes to stand behind you.
He puts a hand on your right shoulder.
No matter the relationship,
The presence,
He is here with unconditional support.
And his father comes to stand to the back right of him,
Puts his hand on his shoulder.
You know that they are here to witness you and your strength and your experience.
They know that you have everything within you to navigate your experiences with confidence and wisdom.
And each man from your paternal line comes to stand behind you.
Your father and your grandfather.
You feel the weight of this support.
Knowing it's all in love,
Stability.
Watching over you.
Sending you guidance whenever you may need it.
And you're going to feel the lines of your ancestors powerfully drawn.
Giving you so much strength and courage to walk through the day knowing what you want to change for your generation,
For your babies,
And what you want to keep.
Within your energy.
Taking another breath,
Send loving gratitude to each and every one of these ancestors for showing up for you today and always.
Knowing that whenever you need this support,
When you're feeling that it's all too much,
They are here.
You can say thank you aloud if that feels good.
Knowing that they all live within your heart at all times.
Like one big loving embrace.
Supporting you and rooting you into your center.
With your exhale you can let this go.
Start to wiggle your sit bones,
Bring yourself back into the present reality.
Opening your eyes when you're ready.
And you can look around your room to see three things that you're grateful for.
Noting them each aloud if that feels good.
When you're ready,
You can begin your day.
You got this,
Mama.
