Because you are interwoven within this beautiful universe, you can find source energy to tap into everywhere. Source energy can come from the magma at the center of the earth; the earth herself; the heavens; the universe; a galaxy; a star cluster, a tree; the air; and so on. It’s all around you.

For example, when I was gifted with an energetic wellspring—a water source that never runs dry—I made up a simple way, based on the pattern of “Filling Your Three Centers”—which you may know from Weave the Heart of the Universe Into Your Life—to begin my day filling with this wellspring. The practice reminds me to stay fluid and fills me with the power of a gushing spring. 

Think of source energy as companion to your internal energy. Drawing on and filling with source energy is a way to augment your resilience and expand your aura.

Drawing From Your Wellspring: Three Lakes into One

Drawing on your experience of sacred springs, rivers, waterfalls, or other water bodies, visualize your wellspring and explore it with all your senses. Look at how the water flows clearly, sparkles, and “never runs dry” as my Irish ancestors say.

Now place your thumbs together on your belly button and make an open triangle on your belly by crossing your fingers slightly. Your hands anchor this work, keeping you focused on the place where your wellspring waters will enter.

Visualize the water rising up from your wellspring and filling your hara—the open space between your fingers just below your belly button—as if you are creating and filling a lake there. Keep seeing the water rise up until you see the lake of your belly full and spilling over.

Next, visualize the wellspring flowing upward from your belly lake, filling the lake in your heart. See your heart lake full and spilling over, flowing back down into the wellspring and up again in an endless circle. 

Now visualize the wellspring flowing upward towards the lake in your third eye. Feel your third eye lake full and spilling over, circulating down to the lakes in your belly and heart, and up again. Notice how this creates a toroidal field of energy around you.

See the water flowing between all three lakes, filling up and expanding until they are one big lake shimmering in the light. Let the fluidity, calm, and alignment you feel spill out beyond your physical body, beyond your aura, until your beautiful source energy radiates into the world

This is the kind of elemental practice I’m including in my new book, Seeds for Our Future. It's one that I use daily but haven’t shared before, so I’d love your feedback!

Does it make a difference? 
Does it enhance your sense of internal power? 
Does it expand your love for the world? 
Does it help you maintain and sustain harmonious relationships in the larger world? 
Do you feel more whole and fluid when you do it?
Or do you have some other experience? I’d like to know that too.
