Last week was the last class, correct? I just wanted to make sure because it is still listed on the calendar for the next several weeks and it says it is live right now.

Thank you Melissa for the beautiful gift of the BlissRX class. I truly enjoyed reading the book and listening to the videos you shared. I appreciate the wisdom and clear explanations and easy to follow steps for the activities you shared with us. I am looking forward to continuing to practice. You are a blessing.

After watching the latest class, I am so excited to work with the intention of strengthening my pillar of light every day. I have been aware of the central channel for a few years now and am hopeful that I will work with it more consistently now. Melissa's explanation of all the beauty it can add to our lives has reinspired me.

Once you can identify your go-to emotions and the triggers that are running through your mind and body, you can process them through your body and eventually release them. This recodes your body to a new state, allowing you to experience new, rejuvenating, and peaceful emotions that will positively affect your body and mind. When we don’t release these trapped emotions, they become stuck in the body and create dis-ease or diseases and illnesses. This exercise offers a way to identify and release negative emotions. You may have to do this process repeatedly with one emotion. Take your time and trust that the work you are doing is beneficial, even if you don’t see changes right away. Part 1: Identify a negative memory 1. Recall a trigger: Pinpoint a situation, person, or memory that provokes a strong negative emotion, like anger, anxiety, or sadness. Think of an argument with someone that still upsets you or a memory that stirs discomfort. Visualize the situation clearly. This is your starting point for releasing what you no longer need. 2. Identify the feelings: Ask yourself, “What feelings are associated with this?” “What am I feeling when this happens or when I interact with this person?” Label the emotions clearly such as “I feel rejected,” “I feel anxious,” or “I feel resentful.”. 3. Notice the trigger: Reflect on what, in this situation or memory, is causing the negative emotion. Is it a word, tone, look, or thought? For instance, if you feel anger when someone interrupts you, notice that the interruption is the trigger. 4. Find the energetic imprint: Take a few deep breaths and notice any sensations in your body. Where does the feeling seem to “live”? Is it a tightness in your chest? A sinking feeling in your stomach? Where, as specifically as possible, do you feel these emotions? Now, observe how the emotion moves and its color. Is it swirling, pulsing, or radiating in a particular direction? Give it a specific color that matches how it feels. For example, perhaps your anger feels like a pulsing red in your chest, or your anxiety like a churning gray in your stomach.

A somatic + energetic practice to awaken your inner gateway and build your pillar of light. In this exercise, we’ll integrate the 5-5-5 breathing technique with the mula bandha to move energy intentionally through the central channel and activate the pineal gland. This practice is a powerful way to open the ”inner gateway,” enhancing your connection with higher consciousness. 1. Begin with the 5-5-5 breathing technique: See module 1 for a refresher on how to do this. Repeat the cycle five times. 2. Engage the mula bandha: See module 3 for a refresher on how to do this. As you begin the 5-5-5 breath cycle, engage the root lock (mula bandha). Inhale deeply, pulling your breath and energy into the root chakra while gently contracting the perineum and lower abdominal muscles. Imagine you are gathering energy from this grounding point and pulling it upward. As you continue to inhale, visualize this energy moving up along your spine—through your lower belly, heart center, throat, and finally to the center of your forehead. Engage the muscles in the root, abdomen, and throat, feeling the upward movement of energy as you pull it into the pineal gland. 3. Engage the third eye: When the breath reaches the third eye, place a fingertip at the center of your forehead or gently tap to focus your awareness here. Squeeze and hold the breath in the center of your feeling the energy and connection between your root and crown. Release the contraction as you exhale, sending your breath deep into the core of the earth, grounding yourself in Mother Earth. Repeat this process with each breath, practice extending the hold and squeezing of the pineal gland for up to one minute.
