The Burden Basket Native cultures have used the burden basket for centuries for many different tasks. It is also known as a symbol for letting go of our problems and worries. People write down the things they want to release, and put them in the basket. Giving them to Spirit, so we won't burden ourselves or anyone else with them. We invite you to click on the basket and leave your burdens here. Leave as many as you wish. Each night, the basket will be cleared and the messages sent up to Spirit with ceremony and smudging. Sleep well. Tomorrow is a new day, and new beginning. Walk gently on the earth and with each other. Go in peace, humility, gratitude and joy. Serve the people in a good way. We are all related!
