When life overwhelms, things get out of control
Through the powers of NATURE
We can find healing, balance and reset the soul:
We are beings of MIND, BODY, SPIRIT and EMOTION
– One With All Life at the Core of Who We Are –
Peace and Health are found through Understanding, Compassion and Devotion.
[This ritual can be performed alone, with a friend, or in a group]

AIR: MAKE A PRAYER Air is the element of MIND.
Light candles while stating your intentions
and incense as you make invocations
to beings in the heavenly realms
ancestors, guides and god/goddesses –
all these beings seek ever to bless us,
but to receive their love
we need to offer ours –
it’s through an open mind and heart
that we access their spiritual powers.

FIRE: AIMING HIGHER Fire is the element of SPIRIT.
Raise the frequency of your body:
Drum/Dance/Strip/Shake
Loosen the body, lose the mind,
get out of the head and feel the blood pumping inside.

WATER: THE EMOTIONAL QUARTER Water is the element of EMOTION.
Wrap up in a sheet, shut your eyes, dive deep.
Swim inside the inner world,
watch the words and images of the mind,
pushing deeper into the feelings behind
until you’re floating on the breath alone,
feeling the flow in your soul.

EARTH: PLACE OF REBIRTH Earth is the element of BODY.
Breathing into every part of your body
Touching yourself from head to toe
affirming the holiness of each part as you go.
Write down your reflections and new affirmations,
your visions and your dreams.
Remind yourself you’re on life’s journey
and there’s much more to life than it sometimes seems.

THANK your ancestor spirits, guides and god/goddesses
Bless yourself and bless your relations
Dedicate yourself to your own liberation.
