My Magical Week of Breathwork Healing with David Elliott
I just returned from a magical week of healing breathwork with author, teacher and healer David Elliot in New Mexico. It was an eye-opening and transformative experience. My heart is full of love.
David combines breathwork and his intuitive gift of clairaudient hearing to help you reveal deeply buried histories or beliefs that are holding you back.
My friend Lauren introduced me to his work a few years ago and I’ve used his breathwork meditations many times to release stubborn energy blocks in my body and tap into my intuition to help me get unstuck.
Doing it in person for a week with a group of 27 other beautiful souls from all walks of life really fast-tracked that journey. I also haven’t been around so many people at once since before the pandemic! 😅 It was both wonderful and challenging.
David and the group created a safe and loving space that allowed everyone to identify old stories that weren’t serving them and cultivate deep self-love on their various journeys.
He taught us how to lean into our fears with compassion and grace, tap into our own wisdom, and heal ourselves.
I’m still processing the experience and tying all the pieces together in my life. It’s an ongoing journey. Some of the things that resonated with me most were:
Self-love: Our natural state of harmony and balance is love. Self-love is the key to healing. It’s the antidote for everything. It expands and uplifts you when felt and expressed.
Emotions: Get used to your emotions. They are normal and natural.
Breath: Let the breath do the work.
Safety: You belong. It’s safe to speak up. You have a lot to say!
Intuition: Intuition is a craft that can be cultivated. It’s a developed gift. Breathwork fine tunes your connection between your body and the frequency of your soul; once you feel this consistently enough it starts to become your foremost communication system.
Tapping into your intuition will increase your confidence, trust and faith in all areas of your life.
It is not about the head. Intuition comes from your heart.
Thoughts are dead energetically. Intuition has energy to it - hot and tingly.
Watch out for wanting feedback from others on your intuition. Trust what it is telling you and don’t undermine it by trying to get feedback from others.
Questions:
When feelings, visions, challenges, energy or people come into your life, ask yourself “Do you have a message for me?”
When you feel energy, ask yourself “Is this mine or others? What message am I supposed to receive?”
Exchange: Pay attention to imbalances in your “exchange” with others. Exchange is the flow of energy or consciousness given and received as energy, respect, value, appreciation and love. It can refer to goods, services and money. Where is exchange out of balance in your life? If there is any place, relationship, or thing where you feel under-appreciated or stuck, then your approach to exchanging within yourself is off, and you need to find the place where you are not loving you.
Stuck: It is important to know where you are stuck and what would open up to you if you were not. It’s important to know your blintspots, prejudices, and judgements because they form the ceiling to your experiences in this life. What is it costing you to hold old histories, stories, thoughts, emotions, etc., inside?
I’m so grateful for this opportunity and look forward to sharing it with you someday.
