Finding Forgiveness Ritual
Once you have prepared your Cacao, create a sacred space for the ritual.
Relax your body, starting from the top of your head. Imagine a warm, calm, peaceful energy flowing down relaxing your face, jaw, throat, shoulders, arms, hands, fingers. Then move it down through the front part of your body and into your hips. Go back to the top of the head and feel the energy flowing down the back of the head and relaxing the neck, back of the shoulders and the back and spine, down to the pelvis. Make sure the top part of your body is relaxed and heavy. Then focus on flowing the energy down the thighs, knees, calves, ankles, feet and toes. From the top of the head, to the tips of the toes, feel this warm and peaceful energy flowing around your body!
Allow all the stress to ebb out of your body by focusing on the body sensations, and becoming the observer of your thoughts until you feel relaxed, heavy and at peace. You can also use music to help you get into a relaxed state.
When you feel connected, your thoughts have slowed down and you feel still, bring to mind one person you have an unresolved issue/dispute/challenge with.
Imagine that person sitting opposite you and begin a dialogue with them. Speak to them as if they were there. The more you can see and feel them, the more powerful this ritual can be. Tell them everything you want to say and hold nothing back.
This ritual is not about an outcome, it is about releasing the words and feelings that are trapped in your throat chakra. Let the tears come if they need to. It is the bodies way of bringing the emotions back into balance.
This is not about being right or wrong, or about blame. This ritual is an opportunity to speak your truth without fear of retribution, attack or rejection. It is an incredibly powerful ritual even if the person has died.
Unresolved issues create dis-ease in the body and when we get the opportunity to verbally talk about our feelings and emotions we can release the blockages and feel calmer and more at peace. Even if it is done energetically.
Make a conscious effort to speak your truth in every situation, even when it is really uncomfortable. The more you live in integrity the more peace of mind you will find in your life...
