been repeated from generation to generation in our families. 

Every human being has energy as information installed in our bones. That energy plays a part in the way we relate to the environment, in how we handle our emotions, and in the way we think about the world. The information inscribed in our DNA and the science behind explaining how it is passed on between generations, is called EPIGENETICS. 
  
If we listen to ancestral traditions from around the world, we would find wisdom and knowledge on how to heal our ancestral lineage As we go through life, we realize that it is necessary to explore and recognize that behaviors and difficulties are present in ourselves. We can transform and heal unhealthy patterns we have received from our parents and ancestors. As a collective wound, shadows from unhealthy patterns are present as well. That have to be healed too for future generations and the common good of all human beings. 
 
At the same time, it is relevant to celebrate our Ancestors successes, resilience and gifts that accompany us, by remembering and honoring them. 
 
When recognizing that the human kingdom can heal, we recognize that our own healing is linked to the
medicine of sacred earth, water, fire, air with all the rest of the kingdoms; mineral, plant, and animal as well. From around the earth, native Ancestral Traditions, have left us their legacy of wisdom in healing our
ancestral lineage that we have forgotten with our modern distracted lives.
 
Our ancestors used ceremonies, dances, chants, and meditations, among other practices to heal, release,
surrender, embrace and illuminate with love those dark parts that have blocked us. 
 
 It is our responsibility to recognize that healing practices are not only a process of self-liberation
improving our health, but also to improve our relationship with our families and the Planet.]]><![CDATA[June 12th, 2021]]>Sun, 13 Jun 2021 03:45:33 GMThttps://www.nwreikicenter.com/blog1/june-12th-2021The Body and Ancestral Trauma
By Luz Stella Camacho
​Healing the ancestors is also an invitation to go back home: your body and its memories. That body that you do not know and wears your name, that you have not lived in or listened to for a long time, has stories to tell you.  It has the memories of your life and records the events of your ancestors that you have not made visible or felt.

Traumas are written in the body from our childhood when our spontaneous movements and expressions were rejected. When we lived wounds of war, when we could not express ourselves, we separated from the body in order not to feel and survive, blocking our natural being.

"The knowledge of one's own body possesses, in effect, an immediate psychological resonance.  Just as ignorance, fear or insecurity of physical identity block energies, so awareness enables us to achieve human wholeness. Within the process, we will search through into conscious bodywork by becoming aware of the blockages we have been hiding for so long."
​
It is an invitation to open ourselves to travel with courage and
humility with the help of the breath to surrender to conscious
listening to heal. 
​
A sacred journey through your body listening to its voice…   
A journey through the feeling that tells you your own story....  
A journey that frees you from the tensions that block you...
A journey that re-connects you with your energetic flow.
