Branches

A musical journey with spoken word into a sacred grove that honors the ancient trees of an enchanted forest. "Branches" is based on Wagner’s “Im Treibhaus,” one of many melodies that pop up into my mind in different places of the world. Like confluences of landscape and sound, of memories that unfold and shift from the inner world into an outer experience. A guided tree meditation, – a homage to nature if you wish.

Transcript

— Soring crowns of foliage.

Canopies of emerald.

Wings on distant timbers.

Tell me.

What are the secrets of your trails?

Silently you bow your branches.

Drawing symbols in the air.

And a hushed observer to your insights.

Stumbles forward.

On its way.

Filled with ancient wisdom.

Arms awaft at every whisk.

Guided by your sweet embrace.

Voids of idle anguish.

Fade.

It turns quiet.

Her whispered stirring gently fills the air.

I see heavy drops that linger.

The petals tender fringe.

Thank you , christel, I really love the meditation as ever. ❤️😊

This was eerie. The voice was mesmerizing. I’m not big on voices when I’m meditating, they usually distract me instead of making me feel guided. This kept my focus, although not as deeply inside myself as just music does. I did enjoy it and walked away relaxed. Thanks for sharing
