Self-Care For The Soul Debra Graugnard

Effective communications can make or break a relationship. This doesn't always mean effectively proving our points or being right or even perfect.  I'm talking about listening with an open compassionate heart and a desire to mend your relationships.  This authentically deepens the heart connection. It's more than a band-aid, it heals core wounds.
 
If we truly care about our connection with someone, truly listening, as my teacher used to say, "with the ear of your heart" is most healing for both of you.
 
This is our topic of this week's Meditation & Healing Circle. Listen in to release your defenses, center yourself, and communicate with an open heart to truly mend the relationships that are most important to you.

How about a spa day for your heart? Gentle healing sounds to soften the heart, release the blocks and barriers, and rest into the beauty and peace deep inside. 
 
In this week’s Meditation & Healing Circle, I’m going to share a sequence I did as a practicum when I was in Continuum Movement Teacher Training, and it got a high mark! It was very well received and people had deeply moving healing experiences.  
 
We've been working with healing trauma for the past few weeks – connecting with the earth, settling the nervous system, dropping in to embody your physical vessel – and now resting into the beauty at the depth of your heart.

The traumas of life can disconnect us from our bodies. When we experience a shock, we rebound out. We live from our heads, or we retreat inward or hide behind ourselves. We have trouble being our authentic selves in relationships or expressing our thoughts clearly in work environments.

Sound vibration is really helpful for breaking up stuck energies to release old patterning and blocks from the body, and it's also helpful for getting yourself back into your body, connected with your core authentic self. 

There are specific sounds which can help us reconnect and anchor into our bodies, regardless of how long ago the traumas occurred. 

In this Meditation & Healing Circle, we work with a sequence of Sacred Sounds to ground into our bodies and become the solid powerful presence that feels natural and on point with who we are meant to be.

In this Meditation & Healing Circle, we focus on releasing the effects of trauma from the body. We use Sacred Sounds to open the throat and reclaim the voice. We release constriction from the upper chest, throat, jaw, face, and head, returning us to our original knowing of ourselves as beings of light.
 
April is Child Abuse Prevention Month and Sexual Assault Awareness Month. Whether you have experienced traumas directly related to these topics or not, we all hold trauma responses in our nervous systems. 
With a national focus on such abuses, this is a good time to tap into the collective intentions and bring release and healing to those places that are wanting to let go.   

For the remainder of April, we'll be using Sacred Sound to release and heal old traumas and restore our hearts and nervous systems, so mark your calendar to join us each Sunday.
 
Next week, April 21, we focus on coming back into the body, centering and grounding. Then on April 28, we focus on healing for the heart. So be sure to join us live on Sundays.

See you there!

What is our role on this planet in relation to other species? Answers are encoded within us, and Sacred Sound can awaken the inner knowledge.

Humans are one of four main species, different from the others because we are caretakers of the planet. We are here to take care of this world and the other species that are also, like us, a part of this world.
 
Of course, we know this in our bones – and we have a deep knowledge and wisdom that is encoded in our subtle energy bodies. Using Sacred Sound, we can connect with this inherent instinct and feel it within us, to help us embody and BE what we are here to bring to this planet.
 
This is a really powerful exercise for us to consciously experience, especially at this crucial time for our planet – when so many species are dying off and the health of our planet is in question.
 
In this Meditation & Healing Circle, we call on Muhyiddin Ibn Al-'Arabi's Cosmology of Sound and the Emanation of Creation to help us tap into the vibrations that help us viscerally know our place and live into our role - in harmony - on this planet, our Mother Earth.   

Listen to this episode to feel and embody your connection to all species, yourself as a human, and the planet.
