her: the Scarecrow, Tin Man and Lion. As they traveled the yellow brick road, Dorothy befriended and grew to love the Scarecrow, Tin Man and Lion. She came back home to herself. This is what we have to do as well.
So is it possible that the monkeys in the forest that carried Dorothy to the dark castle represent facing her fears and bringing her shadow side to the light? Facing our fears with tenderness is integral on our journey back to wholeness; remembering who we really are. Dissolv- ing them, our clouded perceptions and beliefs, shifts from a weighted down feeling to a more expansive, inspired way of living.
There is a simple yet powerful technique that can assist each of us in bringing the light to every part of us, when done with love, mind- fulness and acceptance. Dr. Sue Morter named this technique Central Channel Breathing. This can connect you to your energetic pillar of light that runs inside you and throughout your physical and spirit body. This can begin above your head or below your feet. Beginning below your feet will help you feel more grounded. See a demonstration by Dr. Sue Morter at www.youtube.com/watch?v=3JKz4V9V4Xk.
Doing several cycles of Central Channel Breathing throughout your day assists you to feel connected to you, grounding, dissolving challenging emotions or thoughts, and brings you back to center, to your true power!
When Dorothy and her friends reach inside the workings of the castle and meet the real wizard, they are brought back to their core truth: “It’s been inside you all along!” Only then does Dorothy
return home.
Come back to you. “There’s no place like home.”
