Morning Practice

Welcome to Morning Practice! I made this video so you have the opportunity of participating in morning practice with me. Please smudge and cleanse yourself prior to beginning the video. We start by rattling the circle in, then I give my gratitudes which is followed by a few minutes of silence in order for you to give your gratitudes. After that, I use the fairy bells to give you an opportunity to discern an intention for the day along with an energy and Totem (you can simply intuit these or draw cards) to help you work with your intention. Then we will drum together to set our intentions, welcome in the energy and Totem and give gratitudes for their help and guidance.
