Beyond Blood
Ancestral Healing for Adoptive Families
Adoptive families can gain insights and deeper connection to each other and to the ghosts in the room - the biological family living in our DNA. An adoptive family may be influenced by double the amount of ancestors than families not created by adoption. This means there is a lot more goodness and medicine available to the family. Having healed lineages for all members of the family can create a supportive, loving, and collaborative force. Multiracial and multicultural families have a rich opportunity to explore, appreciate, and heal across many layers of diversity and place. A powerful microcosm of healing differences on a macro level.
Impact for Adoptees
The process of Ancestral Lineage Healing empowers adoptees with choice. Everyone has well and healthy ancestors and ancestral gifts that are birthrights. Adoptees can choose to connect with the well ones and learn about their history. If adoptees aren't able to know their birth families or don't have nourishing ties to their adoptive families, Ancestral Lineage Healing provides an avenue to commune with strong and healthy people in their lineage.
Healing lines of lineage
Biological: Accessed through your DNA connection
Adoptive: Accessed through your RNA connection
Both: Honored and Healed through Making Family Ritual.
Adoptees can choose to begin with adoptive lines or biological lineages, even if they are unknown, and are encouraged to do both.
Very often the question of “Why did this happen to me?” is answered when the relationship between biological and adoptive lineages becomes clear.
Both have magic and medicine to share once all the burdens of intergenerational trauma are healed through the prayerful witness of you, their living descendent.
Impact for Adoptive Parents
Adoptive parents don't just blend their children in the family, but their children's ancestors as well. When adoptive parents heal their own lineages they can prevent the burdens of their intergenerational trauma from passing down to their adopted children, and also give their children greater access to the gifts, strengths and blessings of their adopted lineages. Once their own lineages are well, they can work with their children’s ancestors directly to bring healing to issues that stem from generational trauma and core wounds of rejection.
An overview of our work together
-
Begin
Ancestral Lineage Assessment begins with a 90 minute initial orientation and wellness assessment of 4 primary lineages:
Mother’s Mothers
Mother’s Fathers
Father’s Fathers
Father’s Mothers
That’s 2 lines of grandmothers and 2 lines of grandfathers, all the way back through time. Once the wellness level of these lineages is established, direct connection with the ancestors for healing can begin.
-
The Process
Ancestral Lineage Healing is a 4 step process per lineage after the initial assessment.
Each step usually requires at least one 60 minute session. The number of sessions needed per line is determined by the amount of burdens or traumas that present on the lineage.

Completion
The process is complete once all the ancestors on a lineage are healed, well and elevated. Their burdens are no longer needing your attention, and dysfunction is no longer flowing from them.
They bless the living family with their medicine and goodness.
They upgrade your DNA with their newly healed and well energy pattern.
You accept your role as the face of the well lineage in the living world, bringing forward their gifts.
-
Healed & Free
Once your 4 primary lineages are healed and well, you are no longer in an ancestral deficit.
Then you will have an elder counsel to consult with on:
questions of purpose
relational or cultural repair
additional lineage work
connecting with beloved cultural teachers and influences.
In other words, you are no longer alone. You are part of a well team. You are your ancestors.
