Ancestral connection made simple: it starts with embracing your power. In this practice of sitting in the power, you create space to feel the presence of those who came before you—without complication, just presence and breath. This amazing recording builds on the basics of my Sitting in the Power recording.

First,

Find a gentle spot in a chair where you're nice and comfortable.

Allow your body to relax,

Breathing in and out,

Slowing your breath,

Allowing your heart rate to decrease,

Shifting your body so that you feel comfortable.

And when you're ready,

Closing your eyes.

As you take a deep breath in,

Allow your body to breathe in warm,

Beautiful green-blue light.

And as you exhale,

Allow it to breathe out any anxiety,

Tension,

Anger,

Or frustration.

Do that one more time,

Breathing in blue-green,

Cool energy,

And breathing out any frustrations,

Tightness,

Et cetera.

Now imagine you have a sunbeam coming down from the top of the sky.

This sun is starting at the very tippy-top of your head,

Gently warming your crown and gently descending down your face,

Down your neck and shoulders,

Down to your chest and throat,

Warming up the space as it goes,

Continuing to fall like molten lava down your body,

Down your arms to your fingertips,

To your stomach,

Your waist,

Thighs,

Knees,

Continuing to breathe and allowing that light to warm you until it reaches your ankles,

Heels,

Feet,

And toes.

This is the light of spirit lighting your body from head to toe.

Now in answer to that light,

Imagine your own energy exuding a light of whatever color feels most like you out to greet that light of the sun.

Grow that light larger and larger,

And notice where your energy blends with the energy of the spirit world.

The energy of the universe is love,

It is power,

It is connection.

Allow it to empower you,

To connect with you,

And to embrace you.

Now,

Invite your ancestors forward,

Invite them to form a circle around you,

And invite them to step closer and closer until you feel their presence.

Sit with them for a moment,

And allow that energy to just blend with your own.

Now ask the question,

What would they like you to know today?

What knowledge,

Or image,

Or feeling,

Or words would they like to share?

Allow yourself to be as open as possible to any way the message can be received.

This gentle flow is like a whisper,

A nudge,

A flash.

Be patient.

If you have a second question,

Go ahead and ask,

And I'll come back to you in two minutes.

If you don't have a question,

Just sit and feel your ancestors' presence.

As always,

At the end of a spiritual connection,

Let us say thank you to the energy of spirit,

And the energy of our ancestors.

Express your gratitude,

And then slowly come back into your body,

Using your breath as a guide.

Allow your body to breathe more deeply,

To move,

To creak,

To stretch,

Until you're fully aware and would like to open your eyes.

Thank you so much for taking this time with me today.

Hope to see you soon.
