Welcome to this meditation with the intention of loving the Earth.
The Earth is alive and in need of love.
You can relate to it as a living being with the soul.
Allow your relationship with the Earth to reflect love,
Compassion and kindness.
One way to love the Earth is by keeping it in your heart during the meditation.
By practicing meditation with the soul of the planet in your heart,
You can trigger healing energy that can love the Earth back to health.
To start,
Find a comfortable position,
Sitting or lying down,
And do your best to make sure you won't be disturbed.
When you are ready,
Gently close your eyes and let yourself take a full deep breath.
Give yourself permission to relax and witness your breath coming in and coming out.
Notice how your belly rises and falls.
Next as your breath deepens,
Let's imagine a person,
A memory,
Or any situations that helps you to bring forth feelings of love and kindness.
For example,
You might have a pet and thinking about it warms up your heart.
Or you have loving memory of someone who has been very kind to you.
Whatever peaceful scenario evokes feelings of love and kindness,
Let it happen.
As you are embracing these good emotions,
Let your mind and body settle in a loving and peaceful state.
Take your time and see if you can notice any pleasant sensations in your heart space.
You might notice feelings of calmness,
Openness,
Or warmth in your chest area.
Or you might experience pleasant bubbling or tingling sensations somewhere in your body.
Let yourself focus on any pleasant bodily experiences that are coming up.
It is okay if you don't notice any uplifting sensations.
Simply allow what is happening to be part of your experience without any judgment.
Your intention to invoke feelings of peace and love is good enough.
As you are arriving in a loving and peaceful state of being,
Imagine the earth in your heart space right in the center of your chest.
Take your time and see it with your mind's eye.
You might imagine the earth as a beautiful blue marble in the center of your heart,
Surrounded by feelings of love and compassion.
Let's imagine this for a few minutes.

Breathing with the intention of love toward the earth can add loving energy to the web of universal connectivity and increase your participation in creating balance within the universe.
.
As this practice comes to an end,
I invite you to join me by repeating a few affirmations for the purpose of caring for the planet.
Feel free to place your palms on your heart and say these affirmations out loud or repeat them silently.
Let's begin.
I love the earth and the earth loves me.
May the earth be safe and protected from harm.
May everyone treat the earth with kindness and compassion.
Thank you mother earth for all you have given me and I'm grateful to you.
Now bring yourself back into the room and give yourself permission to feel good for doing this practice.
When you're ready,
Gently open your eyes.
Be well.
