Welcome! ...to Breathing Ritual
Steps for Rituals
A Ritual is any set of steps we use to alert the inner self that a change is about to take place.
Determine your color and do the Chapter work found in the Calya Journey-Wise Daily Workbook
Gather the Materials you will need:
- Bath Salts
- Oils/Mysts
- Robe or Fabrics in Your Color
- Crystals/Jewelry
- the Realm tool (ex. Gray-a cloak, Violet-a staff)
- Music to Enhance (Red-Brass/ very pounding
Rhythm, Yellow-Flute or CD's that suit you.)
- Soft Lights (please be careful with candles!)
Dimmer Light or an Enclosed lantern can be very nice.
- Your Calya Journey-wiseDaily Workbook & Journal
- Anything else you would personally like to add.
Preparing thoughtfully prevents disruption later during your Ritual. (Note-Know the Direction Points, N-S-E-W, of your space-(click here). Although not a daily requirement, Ritual will help you make more potent changes.
Assemble your tools and calm yourself. Recall your color and what it means and also what it is specifically that you are about to try to accomplish then, light your lamp.
Call in all kind and Helpful Energies to assist you and align with you. Stand facing the West.
Lift the lantern and call out.
"I am on my Journey Quest oh Wondrous Waters of the West-I call to the Ancestors to help me find my path. Lower lantern to "path"
I acknowledge you My Ancestral Family..."
"…and the connections which link me to you. May you bring to me understanding of myself and my powers on this part of my Journey."
"Energies Sweet, Energies Strong
Justice and Truth sing your Song
Power of the Waters, Power of the Waves
I honor the West and what Life's Mystery Gave."
Holding up your lantern, move slowly to face the North.
"I am Journeying Forth oh Nurturing North, I call to the Nature Energies to help me find my path.
Lower lantern
"I acknowledge the clockwork of the Universe and this Natural World and that I am a part of the structure and flow…may you bring to me self-worth and proper alignment on this part of my Journey."
"Energies Sweet, Energies Strong
Comfort and Joy Sing your Song
Power of Earth Plant Crystal and Stone
I honor the North and Journey not Alone."
Holding up the lantern, move slowly to the East.
"I am willing to feast oh Enlightening Winds of the East, I call to the Powers of Light and Air to help me find my path."
Lower lantern
"I acknowledge the need for releasing what I know in order that I may grasp the new things. May you bring to me change on this part of my Journey."
"Energies Sweet, Energies Strong
Change and Expansion Sings your Song
Power of Air, Power of Light
I honor the East for my wings of Flight."
Holding up the lantern, move slowly to face the South.
"I will keep on, I vow, oh Splendid Fire of the South. I call on the Transforming powers of Fire to help me find my path. "
Lower the lantern
"I acknowledge the creative Life-Force and that I may use it to create harmony or hindrance. May you bring to me fiery pure motives on this part of my Journey."
"Energies Sweet, Energies Strong
Challenge and Honor Sing your Song
Power of Hammer, Wand and Flame
I honor the South with a Fire the same."
Holding up the lantern complete the circle facing West, go to the center and call out:
"Spiritual Realms I call for Protection from anything which may hinder or harm-I now Enter into the (color ) Ritual of ( purpose) of the Realm of ________.
Place your lantern in a safe place and myst or anoint yourself and your space with appropriate color blend and visualize yourself surrounded with the energies, or if you're doing a Ritual bath now is the time to draw it and with intent slowly scrub with the salts and then luxuriate in the waters for as long as you'd like. When done, towel off then apply the appropriate oil and do the appropriate Movement and see your space filling with the Energies. Place the tools near you and the crystals on the charkas. Now it is time for the Releasing Meditation. Try to read and visualize the meditation at the same time-after a few times you'll remember it well enough to simply do the release. Remember these Rituals and Visualizations will facilitate physiological release by employing mental stimulus-go with the flow of your emotions the flutter of image-your first thoughts are the most telling so don't try to figure anything out just watch the "film." And if your mind takes you in another direction go with that, too. After all you're seeking deep knowledge-if you access something be proud of yourself, it could be an important piece to your puzzle quest. Sometimes you may have trouble "seeing" ; don't worry, just keep going and feel the perception of the words you are reading.
(*Note-There are times when our puzzle is just too traumatic to try to put it back together on our own. Please; many highly trained, beautifully compassionate doctors and therapists are available Journey-wise is not meant as a substitute for Professional assistance-never try to live alone. If you are overly distraught, sad, suicidal, afraid or lonely-tell someone.)
After you close down the meditation give yourself time to Return, Rest and Reflect, before making your Journal Entry.
Then close down the entire circle of energy you have created.
Safe Passage.

COLOR HEALING MEDITATION
We are not just our physical selves. We are multi-dimensional beings, composed of an Inner Spirit, a mental body, an emotional body, a vital body, and a physical body.
For diagram & explanation of energy bodies, go to the Glossary Room.
The energy of these bodies becomes progressively subtler from physical to spiritual. Illness begins with disharmony in one of these energy bodies. If not harmonized, the dis-ease moves outward, effecting the denser bodies, ultimately manifesting as physical illness.
Total healing requires restoring harmony to all of our bodies. This meditation is designed to cleanse and harmonize your various bodies with the healing energies of color.
Steps of Color Healing Meditation
- Sit comfortably with your eyes closed.
- Visualize a large ball of radiant Golden light a few inches over your head
- Visualize that ball of light slowly descending through your crown, filling your entire being with golden light
- Imagine yourself absorbing that light as it nourishes, cleanses & heals your whole being
- your Spirit and all of your bodies - dissolving all blocked and toxic energies
- Repeat this exercise, visualizing a ball of Red light
Continue through the entire spectrum like this, visualizing a ball of Orange light; Yellow light; Green light; Blue light; Indigo light; and Violet light. Go through the spectrum at whatever pace feels appropriate.
Take some time to visualize yourself in a state of perfect, radiant health.
Benefits of this meditation:
Cleansing, balancing, & healing at all levels... Spiritual, Mental, Emotional, Vital, & Physical.
Develops concentration & visualization abilities.
