As the nephrons of the kidneys filter the impurities from blood so that it can be eliminated as urine, so the Sponge essence helps us to filter impurities from our minds and spirits so that we can be free. This measure of freedom allows us to embrace life fully and simultaneously 'let go' with carefree abandon. Sponge helps us to relax into the perfect unfolding. It is about attachment and detachment and the ability to dance between these two polarities. It will be useful for those who tend to absorb energies from others and have no ability to transmute them.

Connected to the Stomach channel it assists with the digestion and absorption of emotions and ideas. It's connection with the Bladder channel helps us to maintain our own energy reserves and fluid balance by maintaining a posture of both active participation and passive observation.

The essence enters via the Crown chakra and fosters and supports union with the Divine.
