Belts are normally used to hold your skirt. But my friend Surpuy also told me that when weaving a chumpi, you connect with a higher energy, and the belt is the bridge.
I learned from my mother that you should always wear a chumpi around
your waist. It must cover your belly button for protection.
The belly button?
Yes. It is your center. Keep it protected and you will stay balanced and
strong. The navel collects and transforms the energy that you receive from
the Earth, and from others. It still feeds you. Keep it protected.
I feel like learning from a yoga teacher when I talk with her.
