What if love isn't something we need to seek — but something we already are? In this 5 Minutes In Nature, Liz gently turns our attention inward, to the place beneath thought and feeling where unconditional love resides. Today's invitation is simple but profound: rest your awareness within, and allow yourself to feel the love that forms the very foundation of your soul.

Hello and welcome to five minutes in nature with me Liz Scott up here on Dartmoor on my walk and I'm actually walking along a track that has been incredibly muddy over recent weeks in fact I've only ever walked this way with wellington boots this is my first attempt with trainers this year and I'm doing that because we've had some dry weather and because it's spring and everything is wanting to dry up I'm very hopeful that I will not get stuck in the mud and I will be able to walk along this track following a wonderful moss-clad wall all the way back home and today I want to reflect on something that I'm going to be sharing with my women's group in a conversation coming up and I'm trying to formulate it myself or form and articulate something that feels important I actually run this women's group with a colleague and we were talking about what we might reflect on when we meet up with the group next week and my friend said I would love to talk about unconditional love and what we discussed then was a wonderful glorious conversation about what is unconditional love and more than that what I got from it was a realization that as I touch base with unconditional love with love the heart of everything the foundation of everything my essence is love and as I touch base with that or as I have a clear head so I can hear it more then I find myself walking with love in my heart and speaking with love coming from my mouth and being with people from a place of loving connection it's so easy to get lost in thinking that love is an activity or a doing it's something we do with somebody that we're fond of we love them but this is about exploring unconditional love as the core and essence of who we truly are and I'm not talking about us as individuals I'm talking about the essence and energy of love that is ever present and it is from this creative energy that we take shape and take form and what I've noticed for myself is that when I stop trying to get back to love when I stop trying to be a better person when I stop trying to do life better and be more successful when I allow my thinking mind to settle and to quieten then I can listen in to love it was a bit like yesterday's quote from Ram Dass the quieter you become the more you can hear and that's what it feels like to me when it comes to exploring who I truly am that loving essence and presence and as I feel that in my life and I'm just bringing my awareness within to to feel it as I speak with you and as I bring my awareness back to that core and essence of who I truly am then I find myself flowing in the world or a better way of putting it is that love flows through me at least that's the way it feels to me and it's not coming from my body it's coming from the field of consciousness from which I arise it is as if I am in a dance with consciousness and it is flowing through me and it is me even as I say these words I know it might sound quite strange and I'm finding it hard to find the correct language to share it with you but I guess what I'm asking you to do is to relinquish that sense of trying hard wanting to get somewhere and instead to relax in to allow your mind to quieten to listen within to yourself as you might listen to a beautiful piece of music or as I might listen to the bird song around me I would just quieten my mind and close my eyes and allow the sound to wash over me that is what it is like to listen in to your inner self your inner being your true nature so today is all about listening into your true nature to experiencing unconditional love which is the heart and core of who you truly are I'd love to know your reflections and of course I'll be back again tomorrow but do let me know what it means to you to get in touch with unconditional love
