Meditation

BLACK TURTLE SNAKE Meditation: Stand, feet hip distance apart, hands by your side, facing north, (or imagine if doing this with a client).

Imagine you are standing on the earth in the early winter in the middle of the night. Before you is a great turtle –snake creature, representing the preserving quality we need to learn. The presence of this turtle –snake will allow you to store and access your energy that’s deep inside. Bring your focus on your breath and breathe deeply into your body. Bring your focus to the areas of Ren. This includes the Urinary bladder and lower aspects of your legs. Also bring your focus to the back and overall blood circulation. As you slowly breathe in and out, begin to focus on the element relationship and how you can incorporate them into today. This includes flowing through life like a powerful river, today is about strength. As you breathe imagine grabbing the earth with your toes and meeting the heaven with Gv20.

This visualization should take at least 5 minutes, however can be done for longer period.
