Ritual Practice

Find a quiet space. Sit on the floor. With a pen, draw the outline of an animal that feels instinctively 'yours' on a large sheet of paper. Do not think, let your hand move. Once drawn, tear the paper along the outline. Hold the torn shape to your chest, breathe deeply three times, then safely burn the remnant in a metal bowl.

Questions for Reflection

"What instincts am I avoiding?"
"How can I embrace my primal self?"

I remember the tattoo artist looked very distinct, he was bald with a bunch of tattoos and piercings on his face with round, nerdy glasses on. He was super nice! I felt very good about this tattoo, I loved the design and I felt like my money was well spent!"
