Welcome.
I recorded this meditation in appreciation for Mother Earth,
For us to embody healing energy that we are blessed every day to receive from her.
She is with us always guiding the way.
We receive her through our senses.
Every part of who we are is welcomed by her.
She allows us to be exactly who we are in the moment without judgment.
She is present now,
Always present.
We receive her through the elements of the Earth and sense her below,
Above,
Around and within us.
Her magic is forever unfolding and holding us.
So right now wherever you are,
Whether you're at home or walking on green grass,
Connecting to tall wise trees around you,
The sky above,
The Earth below,
Right now we bask in gratitude for Mother Earth,
Our planet.
And we receive healing from her,
But also spend this time,
Most importantly,
Sending her healing too.
The unconditional love that we talk about,
That we share with ourselves and loved ones should be shared with Mother Earth too.
Remembering that as spiritual beings living in human bodies on planet Earth,
That the Earth,
Mother Earth is spirit too,
Just like us.
And as spirits we are all connected.
So David Attenborough said,
It seems to me that the natural world is the greatest source of excitement,
The greatest source of visual beauty,
The greatest source of intellectual interest.
It is the greatest source of so much in life that makes life worth living.
And just take in that visualization,
A moment to connect to nature,
To Mother Earth,
And allow yourself to breathe in her all the way into your body and notice how that feels.
Wherever you are,
You can do this.
Breathe in deeper,
Softly into your body.
Bring attention to your senses,
Whether you are inside or outside,
Notice the sounds,
Smells,
And sensations coming from the environment around you.
Without judgment simply notice the sensory input your body is experiencing.
Breathing deeply,
Softly,
And slowly.
Now bring your awareness to your heart center.
As you inhale imagine you are filling your heart with love,
Unconditional love flowing.
And imagine that love spreading throughout your body.
With each breath feel the love in your heart expanding outwards to feel the space around you,
Slowly growing steadily.
As you fill your heart with this unconditional love,
Take a moment to bring to mind the many things that you feel grateful for in this moment.
Maybe it's the people you love,
A moment in stillness and meditation,
Nourishing food,
Clean water and air.
Take this moment to tune into the things that you are grateful for.
Feel the power of your gratitude to amplify the love radiating from your heart.
Sharing this love with the entire planet,
All living things.
Let's focus on that right now.
Now shift your focus to the earth.
Consider that everything that you experience,
Love,
And feel grateful for is made possible by the incredible planet that sustains you.
The air you breathe,
The water you drink,
The food you eat,
The materials that build your home and the clothing that you wear.
All of this is made possible by the earth given planet that you call home.
Take this moment in stillness to thank Mother Earth for all that she gives you,
For all that she offers you every day.
And now,
OS practise.
As this meditation now comes to a close,
Let's use the affirmation to go on with our day and embody Earth Day in our hearts.
I honour the great Mother Earth,
I am always in service,
Supporting her in the best way I know how.
Healing the Earth begins with my own healing,
And love on the planet begins with the love in my own heart.
Take a final deep breath all the way in through your nose,
Hold the breath for 3 seconds,
3,
2,
1,
Slowly release,
Breathing all the way out,
With a sense of grounding back into your physical body,
Connecting to Earth,
Earth energy.
Blessings to you with love and gratitude.
