the ML protocol ⌇part 8
U * for Unity & Connection.
Today, I invite you to step into a profound realm of our breathwork journey: the space where individuality and the collective intertwine, where the personal meets the universal.
When we tap into the realm of 'Unity and Connection', we bridge the gap between our contemporary lives and the age-old wisdom of our foremothers, embracing a lineage that is as timeless as the universe itself.
In the vast tapestry of life, each of us is a single, intricate thread. While we may feel isolated at times, the truth is, every inhale and exhale reminds us of our place in the cosmos, of our inherent unity with all that is. The air we breathe has journeyed across oceans, brushed against ancient trees, and been exhaled by countless beings before reaching us.
Throughout history, women have been the backbone of societies, the whisperers of ancient wisdom, and the bearers of life and legacy. Our breath, our very essence, carries the stories, hopes, dreams, and strength of the countless women who have come before us.
In 'Unity and Connection', we channel the power of our breath to transcend our perceived boundaries, to feel deeply interconnected with all life forms, and to honor the universal force that pulses within and around us.
In every breath, we channel the love of ancestors and the whispers of women who came before us; a timeless dance of souls, echoing the heartbeats of ages past.
The Practice
① Grounding Roots
Sit comfortably, visualizing roots extending from your base, going deep into the earth, connecting you to its core. Feel the weight and depth of millennia beneath you.
② Breathing in Linage
With every inhale, imagine drawing in the wisdom, love, and strength of your ancestors. Picture their faces, their hands, their eyes. Feel their presence enveloping you, whispering age-old secrets and wisdom.
③ Exhale Gratitude
With every exhale, release gratitude back into the world, a silent thank you to every woman whose sacrifice, strength, and spirit contribute to who you are today.
④ Hands to Heart
Bring your hands to your heart, holding close the essence of countless generations. Feel the heartbeat of every mother, sister, and daughter who has walked this earth, their rhythms echoing in your own.
⑤ Voice of Unity
Softly whisper or think the words, "I am because you were. I thrive because you persevered. We are one."
⑥ Silent Reverence
Sit in stillness, feeling the vast network of connections that bind you to women from epochs past. Let their resilience, wisdom, and love flood your being, reminding you that you are never alone in your journey.
♾ ♾ ♾ ♾
In the dance of life, we are not solitary dancers. We are part of an intricate ballet, choreographed by the legacies of the women who've come before us.
Their spirits guide us, their stories shape us, and their strength EMPOWERS us. Through 'Unity and Connection', we honor them, we thank them, and we recognize the unbreakable bonds that tie us to them.
May you always feel their presence, and may it guide you as you breathe life into your own unique chapter of this timeless story.
