ONE SPIRIT COMMUNITY

By Kerrie Dancing Butterfly

As we evolve from mortals into modern-day Super Heroes, our sources for fuel will shift as well.  In order to match the frequency of pure crystal light and to hold our composure and form in the midst of chaos, we need to be able to quickly recharge our energy and assimilate nourishment with maximum efficiency. There is no time to waste, as our clear, centered, and compassionate super powers are in great demand in our relationships, families, communities, and all across the planet.  These perfect super human “Foods” are abundant, easily accessible, affordable and quite naturally eco-conscious.

These four “Food” Groups go back to the wisdom of our ancient ancestors who tapped these resources for knowledge, relaxation, nourishment, surrender and empowerment. These ancient tools for limitless, consistent, and potent nutrition take the form of The Four Elements ~ Water, Air, Fire, and Earth.  Our physical bodies are interwoven with a combination of these elements.  We are fed at many levels by the presence of these resources in their various forms, inside and outside of our bodies.  Whether we are aware of it or not, water, air, fire, and earth are keeping us alive.

Over the centuries of industrialization, our bodies have become desensitized to the frequencies of these valued and limitless energy stores. It is time to recalibrate our five senses and activate our sixth sense to all the wonders the elements have to offer our soul. Treat yourself to a feast of the simple, profound and deep nourishment received from a refreshing jump in a river, a captivating sunset, a walk in the forest, or a mountaintop meditation.

WATER invites surrender.  Observing water’s fluid movements and changing form inspires one to apply these lessons to everyday situations.  Spending more time watching, listening and playing in and around various forms of water such as waterfalls, oceans, lakes and rivers will certainly provide deep soul-level nourishment. To maximize the potency of water, utilize each of your senses individually to see, touch, taste, hear and smell the magic essence of water.

Immersing in a cold water plunge invigorates the entire being, while soaking in warm water relaxes the entire being. Staying hydrated with the purest water aids our super human bodies with clear thought, efficient digestion, cellular cleansing, muscular flexibility, increased stamina and enhanced energy.  Waters charged with crystals and blessed with specific intentions have been proven to send energetic messages directly to the cells. In sacred ceremonies, water is used to bless, purify and cleanse.

AIR provides us with Life Force. Due to increased urbanization and pollution, it is essential to move our bodies to fresh, clean air often and to breathe deeply.  Depending on the plant life, presence of water, elevation, season and temperature, the variety of fresh air experiences are certainly diverse and abundant.  The crisp winter morning air, a tropical salty ocean breeze, a dense pine forest or the wildflower desert of Sedona in spring time will invigorate the soul with a delicious treat for your lungs and entire body to enjoy.

Directing the quality of one’s breath is acknowledged as a pathway to inner peace and awakening by many cultures.  The yogis have identified various breathing techniques to elicit a wide range of beneficial effects on the body, mind and spirit such as clarity, relaxation, vitality, longevity, and balance.

FIRE warms the heart and soul and brings light to darkness.  When the sun rises each day, it brings a reminder of new beginnings, hope and rebirth.  At sunset, the sun teaches us to let go and surrender as a unique multicolored portrait unveils itself and then merges with the night sky.  The practice of sun gazing, when done properly, is a powerful rejuvenating experience for the entire body while simultaneously realigning the Divine Sacred Heart within.

In sacred ceremony the element of fire is honored for its transformative powers.  Offerings representing gratitude, prayers and release are placed in the fire which then transforms them, sending these messages gracefully into the heavens.  Tribes since the beginning of time have danced around the fire, creating community, celebrating life and honoring nature.

EARTH provides a solid foundation of support on which we may stand our ground as Modern-day Super Heroes.  “Pacha Mama” or Mother Earth offers her rich, fertile foundation within which to plant our personal cosmic seeds.  She embraces those seeds, feeding them minerals and water allowing our roots to expand and grow.  The purest gifts of Mother Earth are certainly her bounty of freshly grown fruits, vegetables, herbs, nuts, seeds, and roots untouched by industrial processing.  By replacing processed inorganic foods with more foods grown with love from the belly of the Mother Gaia you will surely feel more energized.

In sacred ceremony, Mother Earth is honored, blessed, and thanked for all that she gives.  Take off your shoes more often and feel her belly beneath your feet.  Let the soil, rocks, sand, or grass tickle your toes.  Close your eyes and feel her strong, loving and consistent source of support and nourishment. Smell her flowers.  Enjoy the shade of her trees.  Listen to the songs of the joyful birds.  Watch the butterflies as they dance blissfully by.

Imagine a respectful harmony between water, air, fire, earth, and all planetary life forms where a reciprocal exchange of energy, respect, and love is shared. With a heightened sense of gratitude and the ability to recharge, reconnect, and reemerge clearer, stronger, and more energized than before, you will truly become a modern-day Super Heroes helping and healing planetary consciousness. Watching, feeling, experiencing, and learning from the great wisdom of these elemental resources and recalibrating our relationship to them, will create the reality of Heaven on Earth.

The time to fully activate your super powers is here.  Now more than ever, Mother Earth and her inhabitants need modern-day Super Heroes energized and ready to serve. Fortunately, you have direct access to the ancient secret resources of Water, Air, Fire, Earth and Universal Spirit. Let’s fly!
