I hold a crystal in my left hand and in my right hand, I hold mala beads and count a mantra while I meditate. There are many different ways of meditation, and my practice has evolved over the past 30 years.
Each day I draw an alchemy card and at the end of my meditation practice I send positive affirmations to my body going organ by organ.
It has been an evolution through the years. It began with a mantra I was given through my therapist, to years of ancestral healing clearing prayers , intuitive movement, and simply sitting in silence, quieting and listening at the same time. I
