\"Tapestry<\/a><\/p>\n

It’s difficult to have issues in life that do not have \u00a0some connection to our knees.<\/p>\n

Our knees facilitate many spiritual\/emotional\/physical activities. \u00a0They \u00a0enable us to dance, run, walk, kneel. \u00a0Our knees are shock absorbers and major weight supporters. \u00a0They are \u00a0important players in body language activities.<\/p>\n

With our knees,<\/p>\n

we kneel…an exercise in humility.<\/p>\n

we bend…as we release our feelings.<\/p>\n

we carry weight… both spiritual, emotional, and mental.<\/p>\n

we move forward in life…as our knees bend.<\/p>\n

Offering healing to our knees is an important part of healing in general. \u00a0As you\u00a0\u00a0offer healing to your knees, \u00a0stand, sit, or lie face up…whatever position is most comfortable for you.<\/p>\n

Place one hand on each knee.<\/p>\n

Breathe into your issues. \u00a0As you inhale, throw \u00a0out \u00a0everything you are judgemental about. \u00a0 \u00a0Release it all to the universe:<\/p>\n

anger,<\/p>\n

blame,<\/p>\n

confusion,<\/p>\n

controlling emotions,<\/p>\n

fear,<\/p>\n

loss,<\/p>\n

sadness<\/p>\n

As you exhale, visualize \u00a0these emotions as they leave you. See them \u00a0disintegrate as they move away.<\/p>\n

Continue with these breaths until you feel you have discarded all you can at this time.<\/p>\n

Now, take a few \u00a0grounding breaths.<\/p>\n

When you feel grounded, spend a few minutes contemplating the opportunities \u00a0now awaiting you since you discarded \u00a0the negativity once housed in your knees.<\/p>\n

Rub your knees encouragingly and positively for a few minutes as you experience the new way you feel.<\/p>\n

Get up now, from whatever position you were in: \u00a0sitting, standing, lying flat. \u00a0Leave the safe space you were in and take a 5-minute walk to experience the future as it now presents itself.<\/p>\n

Encourage yourself to breathe deeply as you move into the freedom of the future without the negativity you have been experiencing and housing in your knees.<\/p>\n

Feel free to experience this exercise whenever you need.<\/p>\n
