The Breath of Life
Tuesday, 24 November 2009 09:05 | Written by Ellen Valentine
We can go without food, water, sleep and exercise a great deal longer than we can go without a breath. The Breath is our lifeline to the Divine. It can be said that as a person breathes, so they do life. That is self explanatory but just in case it wasnt clear, if your breath is open and consciously engaged, you are fully alive; if however your breath is shallow and often stops, you are living a contracted and less than fulfilling life.
We can go without food, water, sleep and exercise a great deal longer than we can go without a breath. The Breath is our lifeline to the Divine. It can be said that as a person breathes, so they do life. That is self explanatory but just in case it wasnt clear, if your breath is open and consciously engaged, you are fully alive; if however your breath is shallow and often stops, you are living a contracted and less than fulfilling life.
Take a full and luscious breath right now; breathe deeply. How do you feel? You feel open, ready to let in life, right? Of course it may have scared you, to take a deep and connected breath, and only you can answer that, but the simple act will always tell you volumes about your present state of BEING. If it hurts or feels difficult on any level then you NEED TO BREATHE.
The breathing mechanism is the perfect gauge for our ability in any moment to truly live a full life. Most of the time it is an unconscious act. At any time it can give us a real check up.
Rebirthing Breath has the ability to put he breather in a neutral state, a meditative state wherein healing occurs. It raises the vibration of the body and allows for cellular cleansing. Most importantly the session itself may heal misperceptions a person has incorporated during a lifetime, and it has the ability to shift the energetic clout of the aberrated thought. So, lets go through that again.
Thoughts that are not for our own good, like I will never be able to do that well, have an energetic power that keep them there. The more traumatic an experience that sets a thought in motion, the more suppressed the thought becomes over many years, the more powerful the negative thought is. The ideas or thoughts take on a life of their own and can be destructive.
Whether a thought is true or not makes no difference. If it feels true to a person, they act on it as if it is true. It is true for them.
Life is energy; you and I are energetic beings; everything that occurs in our lives is being manifested because it is what a person believes to be their truth. So good or bad, every person is creating with their thoughts, the unconscious and conscious mind. This co-creative potential was meant to be the greatest gift ever to humans.
As a person breathes during a connected breathing session, a professional rebirthing facilitator will make sure that something called a completed energy cycle happens. With this cycle of energy a certain amount of stored or blocked energy can be released. The thoughts attached are relinquished as they are exposed as untrue and no longer useful. This cycle is followed by a neutral state wherein the breather can make new and healthier resolutions about life.
If youre planning on having a baby and wish for a gentle and trauma free birth, your fist plan of action would be a ten week series of sessions for both mother and father. It will not be possible for the baby to be birth trauma free if everyone involved has not handled their own birth trauma first. The fear and apprehension of the parents is mostly what the child is processing, not only at birth but in the womb. One session never fixes all; just as one session of any modality will not ensure that a particular phobia or emotional block will not re-emerge. It is the beginning of a persons relationship with their ultimate life machine " their Breath.
Ten sessions are recommended as the minimum for anyone to feel really comfortable about breathing on their own. It also gives time for the greater part of contracted energy to be released in the presence of someone who will be there with the breather, lend compassion, and help them process any unresolved residue. The presence of a conscious and successful practitioner also lends energy to the highest resolution of the session, and gives credence to the true pure nature of the breather. This is most important because many people have never been affirmed for their goodness or their ability to achieve this lifetime.
Rebirthing is a technique I learned in1988. It made such an impact on my ability to expand and see certain circumstances in my own life clearly, and reconstruct them. It was amazing and I wanted to give that same gift to others. I still use rebirthing breath with clients and myself.
Rebirthing is definitely a spiritual experience. Depending on the progress of the facilitator and the willingness of the breather, I definitely see it changes lives for the better. With constructive direction after the fact people have the opportunity to literally start fresh.
