Why name it Broken Arrows?
The practice of breaking a wooden arrow with one’s throat has its origins in Fijian culture. This ancient ritual involves placing the point of a wooden archery arrow against the soft tissue area of the notch of the throat and the other end against a hard, solid surface. The act of breaking the arrow symbolizes overcoming limitations and unlocking boundless potential.
As a shamanic practitioner, I had the profound opportunity to participate in a firewalk—an ancient ritual that challenged me to step beyond my comfort zone. During this transformative event, I also engaged in the arrow-breaking ritual. The mixture of fear and exhilaration coursed through me as I held the wooden arrow against my throat, knowing that breaking it symbolized breaking through limitations.
When the arrow splintered, it felt like a powerful affirmation—the dawn of an extraordinary journey. Inspired by this moment, I am committed to bringing remarkable businesses and products to Schoharie County. My vision extends beyond commerce; I aim to create a safe haven for everyone—a space where connections flourish and community bonds strengthen.
Thank you for allowing me to share this incredible journey with you. Together, we’ll make a lasting impact in our community.
**************************************************
The arrow-breaking ritual I experienced was conducted under the expert guidance of professionals. Under no circumstances should you attempt this at home or without proper supervision. Always prioritize safety and exercise common sense. Engaging in risky behavior can lead to serious injury.
Thank you for emphasizing the importance of caution, and I encourage everyone to seek professional guidance when exploring such practices. Let’s all stay safe and continue our journeys with wisdom and care!
