The language of Water

I am not sure if you are familiar with Veda Austin’s work, but it is truly inspirational and resonates deeply with my understanding of the true magnificence of water. I am nurturing a very early relationship with water, yet since inviting this in, I am truly grateful for all that she has taught me.

Veda studies the language of water, and its consciousness. Of course it makes sense right, that something that has been around since the dawn of time, and gives us life, would hold all of eternity within its waves. But I think she is so much more than we can ever imagine, or have even ever thought about. Why are we drawn to water so much? Why does it sooth us? When we want to go on holiday we go to the sea?

She has so many faces, she can be dark and menacing and even sometimes dangerous, or she can be sparkling in a bubbly sunlit brook, she can be solid ice, or beautiful fractal snow flakes, she can balance on the tip of a blade of grass. She is always returning to herself, and follows the path of least resistance. From the embryonic fluid that teleported us here, to the vastness of the oceans. I am in awe.

These images are hydroglyphs from Veda’s collection and they represent the symbols that show up in ice readings, they have meanings. These ones are called the Tree of Life which represents wholeness: Nature: As above : So Below. The many hydroglyphs have taken her years to decode. What can also be seen under the canopy either side of the truck, are also very similar to the hydroglyph for lungs and breath!

I took a water sample from the rebirthing pool in Oct after our retreat and froze it, (I am no expert) but I had a reading by Mariel, and she likened it to The Tree of Life and also the Lungs / Breath hydroglyphs. I didn’t tell her what we were doing on retreat.

So the invitation Is next time, you step into water, see what more can become of your relationship with her. She needs us to understand her, to appreciate her wonders.

Hey this is really interesting : watching children talking about their feelings.. and how they can relate them to their felt sense in their bodies… so vividly ! Thank you Kath Veitch for sharing x

I have to say that I am a person who mainly lives in the light. I am blessed with two beautiful children who are just incredible, I have a home and close family and friends who are constantly in touch, all the projects I start actually happen and are always collaborations that benefit and provide growth for others. I have what seems like endless energy for life.

So when darkness hits i feel really stuck, like I’ll never feel any differently. Now this is a feeling I am very used too, this is how I spent the majority of my teenage years and into mid twenties. But now I ‘should have’ the tools and knowledge to be with it.

It’s like a menacing dark witch, whose swirls of dark thoughts filled with shame and guilt and betrayal are hovering over me. She comes in and stays. The light tries to fight her but has no energy, no joy. No matter the wonder around us it cannot be felt. So what must we do?

There is only one thing to do, it’s to try and see what the teachings are. To surrender and not fight but to look and listen carefully. To lie in the stillness. Not to push. I’m in such overwhelm I cannot speak at times, with horrible brain fog. It’s a big step to let yourself be held like this. Firstly to be held in the darkness but also to reach for support. I know I must go to my body, to my breath for release.

When we feel the darkness coming, we need not be afraid. Resistance makes it all feel worse, acceptance that this part of life and to wait patiently for the teachings, to remind yourself you are loved and you are love, even if you don’t believe it. And this too shall pass.

Like the conscious connected breath, it’s just a cycle, an opening, something happens, an understanding or experience and integration.

Sending love to all those who are not in a fun festive place right now. You are in my thoughts and prayers

Let us remember we are creating space for something else to come through ……

T23am class

Well what a ride that was! We’ve just finished another cohort of Breathwork facilitator training with 25 students. And this group I have to say were very special. It was a real privilege to witness the depth of intimacy and openness that we are willing to go to when we feel safe.

There is nothing I love more than supporting people who want to open their wings, take an enormous leap of faith and fly… of course it’s often a bumpy take off… but this group in one way or another did just that.

Rebirthed a new part of themselves. I wish them all the luck for the future and cannot wait to see the adventures ahead of them.

See you for graduation!

Big thanks to all the mentors, Kira, Christina, Carolina and Podjanee as well as my glamorous assistant and absolute legend and of course co trainer .pablo for holding such a safe container.

It’s not about you!

I’m going to post a series on what makes a good conscious connected Breathwork
(CCB) facilitator, this is the second in the series.

One of the hardest things I’ve been getting my head around recently has to be this seemingly crazy void like feeling that happens when a client leaves.

So those of us who are CCB facilitator’s would agree this is no regular therapy! We are in essence supporting people into an altered state of consciousness by using a simple breath technique.

But what I’m sitting with at the moment is the sheer depth of some of these sessions, I mean you can be meeting someone on a soul level, or working with inter generational ancestoral healing, or a birth regression. And after this very intimate connection you part ways. Now this might be after one session or it might be after a year, but you part ways.

And you’re left with this sense of never really knowing the impact the work has on your client. But this is where the lesson is. We don’t need to know. Because we trust implicitly that their psyche took exactly what they needed at this time.

It’s like, I thank you, I bless and you and I let you go! There’s no need for the ego to be massaged as a success because that’s not who’s doing the space holding! You are merely a channel for the clients light and a higher consciousness.

IMBOLC CELEBRATIONS - BREATHWORK & SOUND JOURNEY
, ST MICHAELS HILL, BRISTOL, BS2 8FN
JAN 28TH 2024 - 18.00 DOORS, FOR A 18.15
START - 21.00, CLOSING BY 22.00
lam super excited to be collaborating with sound healer & Breathworker Janey Repass at this stunning venue in Bristol this January. We will be exploring the earth’s new energy phase of Imbolc, through a deep conscious connected breathwork journey whilst being held beautifully by a unique live ambient sound scape.
Imbolc is the Celtic winter cross quarter festival: the festival of earth awakening! To celebrate the earth’s yearly cycle is to take part in ancient tradition. It is an opportunity to re-learn what we have long forgotten and to re-find connections long buried and suppressed.
This evening is where we honour our ancient traditions by gathering together and celebrating this time, by being a bridge between the ancient and the new, may it remind us we are all part of the natural world, part of something sacred, part of a whole. In this three hour guided journey you will have an opportunity to: Listen deeply to yourself, reflect upon the year ahead
Spend time in a place of enquiry and silent journalling
Enter the breathwork journey and sound meditation.
The breathwork we will practise is conscious connected breathwork, it is a circular breath, which can be deep and profound, and can induce transformative states of consciousness. It is an embodied practise. This combined with a live sound meditation will really allow your body and breath to guide you through the perfect experience for you... This is an opportunity for self enquiry where altered states of awareness can inspire insights and resolutions as well as uncover long held limiting beliefs. £40 or £35 concessions-link in my instagram bio or on my website: https://www.thesacredbreath.co.uk/winter-imbloc-copy

I’m going to post a series on what makes a good conscious connected Breathwork (CCB) facilitator
When I set the intention to create these posts, I immediately came across this beautiful quote. It resonated deeply with me, ‘My job is to be a space where nothing in me is preventing the changes to emerge in you’.

When I read it, my body responded by taking a deep full breath. Something that comes with a regular Breathwork practise as a space holder is a profound connection to our body. One of the ways to be able to connect deeply with our body is through CCB.

As Breathwork Facilitators it is so important for us to have done inner work, to really explore every aspect of ourselves to get to know ourselves inside out! To uncover our triggers, what lights us up, our passions, our unconscious patterns, even going back to conception and birth. By doing this work we become a clear container, the shamanic traditions call it a hollow bone. Now I understand why.

When you space hold for someone they can surrender to a very vulnerable young place. They can journey so deeply, that there is almost a primal nurturing that is needed. But this cannot be from a place of ego, something we feel WE are doing, it cannot be a from a place of judgement, it must be from a place of unconditional love. And in order to feel that fully within ourselves and the other we must do our own work!

So a good facilitator will be continuing to work on themselves, having regular sessions, also I feel it’s important to have a mentor. My aunt Lynn who’s been a Breathwork facilitator for over 40 years still has a mentor she goes too.

Next post coming soon ❤️❤️❤️
