To get back to our "Klangwurzel", we need to give up our controlling mind and let go of our conditioned beliefs, of our judgements on what's right or wrong. During this journey, there is no should or must. No need to be more or less than what is. In this state, you can sink into a deep relaxation, into nothingness, into stillness.
For everybody to open up and relax, a trusting and secure environment is required, and everyone is responsible in creating this environment! This encourages us to make the important step beyond our limits, to grow. Let’s face ourselves with honesty, courage and love.
My experience, after hundreds of trance dances since 2008, is that being in tune with natural processes and qualities help to become your Klangwurzel.
Please, take a look at the following story, it's only one possible path and inspiration to get to your Klangwurzel.
Preparation
We have to arrive and prepare ourselves for this journey. Just breath, stretch and relax your body. Feel the ground under you that supports you, and be aware: it’s there, always, let your body know it's safe. Try to watch your thoughts as they come up and put aside any judgement and resistance, just don not comment on it. Arrive at this place, arrive at this moment.
Earth
Let yourself sink into the earth. Feel how your roots, your being is growing into space. Become the rhythm and allow it to sink deeper and deeper into the unknown. Breath the rhythm. Feel the mind become tired of staying in control. We can let go of what we’re carrying. We stop focusing, watching and listening. But we begin to see and hear how impulses from inside arise in us. Yes, let's get to the ore of our hardest stones. It’s a preparation. Let’s ask for support. A fiery storm might come up…
Fire
Fire has the quality of transformation and helps us to work, sweat, scream, cry, shake and dance out our burdens. I invite you to follow your impulses as deeply as you can and let your body everything express whatever he or she brings along. Work the ore and forge your sword.
Water
Light and fresh rain drops bring the peak of our journey downwards. It’s the breaking point of the wave. Submerge your sword into the water and slap, shake the last slag away. Allow the waters to flow through your body, your bones, your joints. They wash and clean. And, they fill us with a new freshness again.
Air
Now - here we are! Feel how light you are, how much space there is, how free you are, how still it is. Let’s fly up to the sky, to the stars… and receive the magic and power we've called into our bodies, our lives. Hold the clear shining blade of your sword in the air, swing it, dance with it. Enjoy the sunlight's reflection. This sword is your mind and your heart is its guide: clear, strong, shining and free.
Reflection
Now, slowly, come back into this room, your body, your presence. Stay relaxed and feel. Perceive yourself, your environment, your relations. Maybe you've had experiences, got new insights, new perspectives. It’s time to become it, and your life will follow.
And here some words about me...
