Indigenous scholar Dr. Yuria Celidwen guides us in a reflection on our interconnection with water, encouraging us to see it as more than just a vital resource, but as kin.

How to Do This Practice:

Last week we explored the scientifically backed healing qualities of water, focusing on how connecting with water through sound, sight, and touch can support our well being. This week, indigenous scholar Dr. Yuria Celidwen guides us in a reflection on our interconnection with water, encouraging us to see it as more than just a vital resource, but as kin.

Find a quiet space where you can engage with water— a nearby river, ocean, or even the faucet at home.
Focus on the sound of water. Whether it’s the gentle drip from a faucet or the sound of waves, listen deeply to how water calls to you.
Contemplate how water transforms between solid, liquid, and gas. Let this remind you of your own potential for transformation.
Imagine the water flow, guiding you to feel its presence within and around you, awakening memories, imagination, and a sense of belonging in this shared world.
Take a few moments to reflect on how different manifestations of water connect with you.

Today’s Happiness Break Host:
