Grounded

Like a tree, get grounded. Like a tree, get spacious. Gather as many wings as you can. Do not be afraid to root and reach. Whatever you are facing, plant yourself. May this—whatever this is—serve to help you grow. May you see what you do and who you are with great tenderness and kindness. Can you plant the positive seeds? Can you look for the good and expect the incredible? If so, everything beautiful is on its way.

Welcome to a hit of hope.

When the commotion comes,

Sit.

When you feel trapped,

Breathe.

When it is not good,

Do not make it worse.

Inhale.

Exhale.

Like a tree,

Get grounded and reach for the light.

Feel your breath in your body.

Feel your sitting bones grow heavy.

Like a tree,

Get spacious.

Gather as many wings as you can.

Breathe in.

Breathe out.

Whatever you are facing,

Plant yourself here,

Now.

May this,

Whatever this is,

Serve to help you grow.

May every strategy you try have love and hope in it.

May you come to understand what hurts.

May you come to understand what helps.

May you let go of that which makes you small and afraid.

Inhale.

Exhale.

May you soften.

May you see what you do and who you are with great tenderness and kindness.

May you embrace the pain as if you were comforting a child.

May you find what shines in yourself,

In others.

And then,

May you let it all go,

Just for this breath in,

Just for this breath out.

Remember,

You are stronger than you think you are and stronger than you feel right now.

Remember,

You will blossom,

If not this season,

Then the next.

Be still.

Breathe.

It might take some time,

But can you plant the positive seeds right here,

Right now?

Can you look for the good and expect the incredible?

Because if so,

Everything beautiful is on its way.

Namaste.

A special moment to be grateful for each day of my life and to know that I can be a blessing to others. Thank you 🙏

So beautiful, grounding, centering & uplifting. Thank you!

Met me exactly where I am.
I tried to open your newest upload noted in the app and it won’t open. Also turned off my phone & let it rest. That particular meditation won’t open, however, this & others will 😊 thought you’d want to know. Have a grounded, grateful day, Betsy! Namaste

Thank you. I am a breast cancer survivor sitting in the waiting room of 9 year post recovery annual mamo. Meditation is an important tool in my survival tool box.

“Look for the good and expect the incredible.” Words to live by!

Thanks Betsy. People who have been to hell and back make the best guides to help others find the way out.

Calming and reassuring. Great reminder to offer ourselves patience. Thank you Betsy 💜🌳🌸

Loved this, and so timely, since I’m facing unexpected challenges in the weeks ahead. Will bookmark, and listen again when the need arises. 🙏

You are all things beautiful. You are a hit of hope.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Always a beautiful meditation. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. Namaste, my friend.

Not what I was expecting but lovely. Would be great for someone having an anxiety attack

Love the imagery of standing tall and expensive like a tree! And like a tree, I’ll bend with the wind and grow. Namaste Betsy. ❤️

Just what I needed this morning. Planting myself. Thank you Betsy and Blessings 🌻🐢🦋

Perfect for needing grounding when struggling or spiraling. Thank you.

Amen!! Thank you! Namaste.🙏🏾

Listening to this one helps me to understand and acknowledge the pain and hurt I sometimes feel - not necessarily related to each other. Some days ARE more difficult. Thank you for the "bandaid" I needed today.
