PAUSE Keep breathing and staying connected, letting your mind clear stray thoughts and open wide to possibility. PAUSE See if you can imagine a beautiful, hand-carved totem pole rising before you. A totem pole of your ancestors, loved ones who have crossed over in your lifetime and before except at the top. You are at the top of the totem pole. PAUSE Reach out your hand, exploring the smooth curves and valleys of each part of the totem pole. They feel like parts of you. PAUSE Starting at the bottom, your hand glides over the nose and eyes of an ancestor and you hear a whisper from them: “You stand on my shoulders. I bring you this gift.” Breathe into the whisper until you feel their gift. PAUSE You move to another ancestor on the totem pole, and begin gently stroking their face. As you do, you feel love from them, and hear a whisper. “You stand on my shoulders. I bring you this gift.” What is the gift from this ancestor? Breathe it into yourself. PAUSE You choose one more ancestor, one that seems to call to you with the deepest of love. You cup your hands around their face. This time, you hear a different whisper. “Yes, you stand on my shoulders, But you were my gift.” Take a minute and hold this offering of love close. PAUSE Breathe, and feel yourself returning to the present. Take in all the love and blessings from your ancestors. Hold them in your being. PAUSE Breathe again, and listen to one more whisper. “You stand on our shoulders, And we will love you always. Accept this beautiful whisper. And thank the ancestors for this blessing that you will carry with you. Always.
