This meditation is a grounding meditation for grief. It begins with the poem. And then invites you. To feel the ground underneath you. Come into any pose that feels comfortable in your body, A pose where you can feel your feet on the ground. You can close your eyes gently, Leave them open on the ground in front of you. And begin to feel your feet. On the ground. Imagining that you can breathe up from the earth. Into your feet, Into your legs. Into your seat. Up into your spine. And all the way to the crown of your head. And then slowly release the breath all the way down your body, Relaxing. As your breath moves down your spine. Into your seat. Into your legs. And back out through the soles of your feet. I can't smudge away the pain with Palo Santo. Just call you to me. Call your memory. Grief weighs heavily. You lost a hole in my heart. I remember love too. Love too, I remember. Feel your feet on the ground. When I feel ungrounded. I feel the soles of my feet. When grief squeezes my heart. Feel the soles of my feet. When tears rain and storm. Feel the soles of my feet. When memories shine like the sun. I feel the soles of my feet. My heart cries for solace. I feel the soles of my feet. I rock myself in a lullaby of breath. And feel the soles of my feet. The earth holds me. I feel the soles of my feet. The earth holds us all. I feel the soles of our feet. I am home. I am love. I am grounded. Through the soles of my feet. I feel your feet in mine. Your heart, My heart. I call your memory. I feel your love. I feel the soles of my feet. Feel the soles of your feet on the floor. Take your breath up through your legs. Into your seat. All the way up your spine to the crown of your head. Pause at the top. Slowly let the breath come down through your head, Your neck. Your shoulders. Down into your upper back. Lower back. Seat. Down through your legs. Feel your feet. Continue to breathe in through your feet. To the crown of your head. Breathe out from the crown of your head. Through your body. And into the soles of your feet. Feels even further beneath you. Take a breath up from underneath you into the soles of your feet. Through your body. To the crown of the head past the crown of your head. Breath, Move through your body down, Down to the soles of your feet and out. Breathing in through the soles of your feet. Up from the earth. Through your body. To the crown of your head. Through the top of your head. Release the breath all the way through the body. Letting the breath come all the way out. Through your feet. Feel your feet on the ground. Feel the soles of your feet. Feel the earth, Steady. Strong secure. Beneath you. Thanks for watching! Gently blink your eyes open. And continue to feel the steady support. Of the ground beneath you.
