💡👉🏽Undeniable Conception connection…
Not only were you present with your mother in the womb in the developmental sense, but you were also energetically intertwined with both your maternal grandmother and your mother.
This connection means you were exposed not only to your mother’s experiences and emotions during her pregnancy but also to your grandmother’s during that time as well.
This bond is more than just genetics—it’s an intricate web of lived experiences and shared energies, both wounds and wisdom, that transcend time.
Understanding this connection can deepen our appreciation of who we are and where we come from, reminding us of the beautiful continuum of life that flows through us all.
What is Ancestral Clearing?
Ancestral Clearing is a trademarked and registered energy modality pioneered by Howard Wills and further developed by John Newton. It addresses the spiritual components of what could be hindering healing. Essentially, we’re calling in the energy of the Creator or Higher Power to help us release what no longer serves us, employing the term ‘forgive’ to mean offering up these burdens. Elizabeth explains how, despite her scientific background skepticism, experiencing Ancestral Clearing profoundly affected her and others, describing it as repeatable and teachable.
Understanding the Mother Wound
Elizabeth shares that Ancestral Clearing targets spiritual imprints from the past, which can block healing or abundance. These imprints can span back multiple generations, as observed in various cultures and spiritual traditions. She introduces the concept of the mother wound, explaining that experiences and emotional states are passed down through generations. For example, a grandmother’s experiences during pregnancy can affect future generations, creating powerful connections and shared energies between mothers and daughters.
Addressing Personal Trauma
Elizabeth experienced a significant rupture in her relationship with my mother. Elizabeth’s mother went into deep depression after her birth, causing a nine-month separation. This early trauma created a profound wound, exacerbated by her mother’s untreated bipolar disorder and alcoholism. This unpredictable and intense environment deeply affected Elizabeth’s sense of self-worth. Elizabeth emphasizes the importance of addressing these wounds to break free from codependency and unhealthy relational patterns. She underscores the necessity for mothers to work on their codependency tendencies due to the intense connection with their children.
Clearing by Ancestral Clearing
Elizabeth introduces the concept of using Ancestral Clearing to address deep-seated issues from a spiritual vantage point. She shares a prayer for forgiving and releasing burdens, noting that this practice addresses not only the individual but also ancestral and future generations. After the prayer, Katie and Elizabeth discuss the immediate sense of relief and relaxation it brings, demonstrating the potential impact of Ancestral Clearing.
