Anthology for Listening Vol. I. LISTENING TO MY FEMININE LINEAGES

Guidance for “Listening to my Feminine Lineages”

Prepare yourself to listen in comfort.

Put down a mat, blanket, cushions, take off your shoes. Have a warm cup of something close by. If you are able to, sit or lay on the floor.

You are invited to light a red and white candle, burn incense or any cleansing and protective herb, and to listen in to what you feel, even if that means pressing stop.

This soundscape is made from simmering, and simmering, and simmering, and simmering my 9-month womb-wondering experience into a thick syrup. It is spiritual in nature.

I ask that you treat yourself – and the act of listening – with honour.

Take a few intentional, easeful, long, slow breaths in and out.

بِسْمِ ٱللّٰهِ ٱلرَّحْمٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ‎ • (bi-smi llāhi r-raḥmāni r-raḥīmi)
“In the name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate”
