Ksepana Mudra (gesture of pouring out and letting go), directs negative energy out of the body, and brings in positive energy. Use when you feel unhappy, or if you need to release any thoughts or concerns which may be causing you tension. This mudra is beneficial after being in a large crowd or following an argument. It clears your energy field and cleanses your emotions.
Ksepana Mudra Practice:
1. Begin with the mudra at heart center. Place your index fingers flat against each other pointing up. Clasp the rest of your fingers and let the finger pads rest on the back of your hands. Cross your thumbs.
2. On your first inhale turn the index fingers to point down. If lying down, point them in the direction of your feet. Completely relax both hands.
3. With each inhale envision vibrant, light energy flowing into your body and on your exhale let go of negativity in any of its forms.
4. Practice a total of seven times. When done place your hands on your thighs with palms turned upward.

When you inhale, fill yourself with new fresh energy. Then repeat the following affirmation:
I am fascinated with the possible messages from numbers and decided to share how to calculate your Personal Year Vibration Number as shown in Louise Hay’s book, Numbers & Colors. First we need to know what the Universal Number is for 2017, by adding the four digits: 2 + 0 + 1 + 7 = 10 (1 + 0 = #1). In numerology, you continue reducing numbers until you have a single digit. The Universal Year #1 represents the start of a fresh new cycle – a new 9 year cycle of creativity, learning and growth.
White Buffalo Calf Woman’s ancient legend goes back at least 2000 years, and is central to the spiritual practices of numerous Native American Nations. There are various, but similar, versions of White Buffalo Calf Woman’s mythology. One shares that White Buffalo Calf Woman arrived spending four days with their people. She was cradling a sacred bundle in her arms. On the fourth day White Buffalo Calf Woman left in the same manner she had arrived, telling the people she was leaving the sacred bundle, the White Buffalo Calf Woman’s pipe, in their care. She promise one day to return for it and to also bring harmony and spiritual balanced back to the world.
