Emerging Spirit -the Essence of Spring
Thursday, August 27th 2009 @ 10:51 PM (not yet rated)
As we move from winter into spring we move from the water element to the wood element. Both have similarities in that they possess a deep sense of knowing about their purpose (water to flow with gravity to the sea and wood to grow toward the light). Deep psychic knowledge becomes infused with a strong connection to spirit and feelings of growth and expansion.
I connect this with the feeling I get on a warm spring day as I decide which of the beautiful spring blossoms around me to make essences from, when to pick and bottle them, amidst the melodious humming of the bees.
The Balanced Energy Liquid Light Essence blend Emerging Spirit (Wood) brings in confidence, assertiveness and decisiveness and the patience and ability to see the truth so that you can act at the appropriate time.
It is the perfect essence for this time of year and supports the liver and gallbladder through any spring detox.
The Liver, ruled by wood, is directly related to the health of the eyes, this activation exercise stimulates Liver chi and nourishes the eyes:
Stand with feet hip width apart in parallel, knees soft, hands resting just underneath the navel or “Tantien”. Palms facing upwards, middle finger tips touching and thumbs relaxed.
Focus on the Tantien, breathing normally, and imagine an image of a bright yellow, smiling, warm sun in your tummy.
Hold the energy of this in your hands and then scoop the energy up towards the eyes with your hands by bringing the hands up to the eyebrows and turning them palms down.
Breathe in just before you go up, out as the hands reach the eyes, in as the hands come back down to the first position and out as you move them back up to the eyebrows, continue for 36 times.
