Ceremony for Balance
Whenever I feel that I need to bring balance back into my life I turn to my medicine work - I like to go right to ceremony. In the Inka Tradition we have a word - Ayni - which means balance - not just balance in ourselves but balance within every area of our existence - with all of our relations. Here is a simple ceremony that anyone can do to assist in bringing back balance into your life - a medicine mandala: Go out onto the land where you live - collect a bunch of natural materials - stones, sticks, flowers, or other plant or natural material.
