Release negative, Unhealthy energetic cords of attachment
In order to move forward, we must let go of unhealthy attachments to make room for new opportunities. We must align our chakras, raise our vibration, and connect to our highest timeline
Negative energetic chords of attachment link us to other people, places, objects, thoughts, or beliefs. They are invisible energetic connections. Think of them as a network of spider webs connecting us with literally every person we've ever interacted with... Friends, family, lovers, employers.
Each cord has energy going into it from both ends. The strength of the cord or connection depends upon how much energy (healthy or toxic) we give it, and how much energy we allow from the other end. When there's an unhealthy connection there's an imbalance in the relationship. Which can affect mood, feelings of dependency, anger, anxiety, resentment, mistrust, fear or feeling drained or obsessive thinking. Releasing these negative attachments we reset the connection, recalling our energy or personal power back, giving us a chance to reestablish the relationship.
It can help us find clarity and inner peace. We become more present and aware of our surroundings. This helps us to create a foundation of healthy boundaries, otherwise the lessons repeat themselves. You are here to reclaim your freedom! Come with a specific person, place, thing, thought, or belief you would like to reset the connection to.
Akashic records are a universal non-physical library or database containing the complete vibrational history and blueprint of every soul, thought, events, and emotion from the beginning of time, accessible through spiritual practices like meditation to gain insight for healing past issues, understanding your life's purpose, and navigating potential futures, though not predicting fixed outcomes. It holds The personal history of your soul, including past lives, karmic patterns, lessons learned, and potential futures, recorded without judgment. Understand your soul's journey, expand talents, and find greater joy and success. Gain clarity and recurring negative patterns ( karmic lessons) and release energetic blocks from past experiences. Explore potential future outcomes recognizing that free will allows for changes is outcomes are not set in stone.
Edgar Cayce the famous 20th century mystic known as the sleeping prophet heavily utilized the akasha records as his primary source for readings and healings.
The merkaba is a sacred geometric symbol of two interlocking tetrahedrons, forming a 3D star representing the union of spirit and body, divine light, and spiritual ascension, acting as a light vehicle or chariot to hire consciousness, balancing masculine/feminine energies, and facilitating healing and transformation through meditation and visualization. Derived from the Hebrew for “chariot”. It symbolizes connection to the divine with “Mer” (light) “Ka” (spirit) and “Ba” (body) It is a light body vehicle that transports the spirit to higher realms, enabling spiritual growth and interdimensional travel. It symbolizes the integration of masculine (upward tetrahedron solar) and feminine (downward lunar) energies and the connection between heaven and earth. It creates a spinning toroidal energy field around the body offering protection and amplifying spiritual experiences. It balances the brain hemispheres fostering deeper understanding and spiritual awakening.
Workshops will be held outdoors or indoors in the central sacred meeting space which is octagonal in shape making it perfect for Sound Immersion.
We will be staying at the Light on the Hill Lodge where there are 18 single rooms.
Comfortable rooms overlooking the beautiful grounds.
