This stuff is blowing my mind! From the Mongolian Altai mountains - literally made of the mountain and the ancient composting of all that is. Phew. Wow.
Here’s what I’ve written on it:
The story behind what we eat provides so much more than just nutrition (and that in itself is obviously huge - micro nutrients and bio available foods for our ancestral bodies - where your ancestors have lived will effect what best nourishes your body) the metaphors and energy of what we digest is deeply nourishing to your body and your story - who are you, what are you going through right now?
Root vegetables, grown in soil that your ancestors tended will work with your root chakra, your sense of self, home, belonging, bringing you back into your body. What was your ancestors relationship with that soil?(that just autocorrected to soul). Did they farm it? Did they own it? There will be direct metaphorical energies assisting you whatever the story was.
Meat that is abundant and has always been abundant to your ancestors, that was hunted with care and every bit used, will have a direct memory in your cells. That animal will know that your ancestors used every bit and was deeply moved when they killed their own ancestors. The peoples of whale farming communities have bodies that respond on physical and energetic levels to the meat and fat of the whale. I couldn’t eat whale as easily and receive the same benefits.
The energy embodied in Shiljat a resin found in Himalayan or Mongolian mountains has been exciting me this week. As someone who Shamanically embodied ‘the mountain’ (that is the spirit of the mountain, especially ancient volcanic mountains; a food stuff that holds the energy of volcanic mountains speaks deeply to me. It is ‘made’ over millions of years, after a volcanic eruption starts to cool when plant matter and ammonites fell into the cooling lava and composted up in the ancient lava. Over time this formed a thick sticky resin, full of fulvic acid which makes it deeply bio available and trace minerals that our modern bodies are lacking.
The Mountain initiated me earlier this year and told me to bring back the ancient wisdom that was deep within the heart of the mountains. That is, within our souls, the earth, our ancient ancestry, the universe. To be able to embody and be nourished from the heart of an ancient volcanic mountain feels to be the perfect physical connection to this medicine.
I’m so grateful and send prayers to the mountains for their effortless strength and the medicine they provide.
