Hello,
And welcome to your meditation.
This guided visualization was written in honor of Mother Earth.
She provides us life and every day it is important to honor and give back to her.
You may listen to this meditation as a way to feel more connected with the Earth and for inspiration to give back.
I would like to invite you to go ahead and find a comfortable seated position that you would like to be in for the remainder of this time.
If at any time you do not feel comfortable in your seat,
Simply make any adjustments that feel good in your body.
Allow your body to settle so that you feel grounded through your lower body and there is intention in your posture through your upper body.
Find anywhere where you may be holding onto tension.
Some common areas may be the hips,
The shoulders,
And the jaw.
With your breath,
Allow this tension to subside and gently melt away.
Begin deepening your breath,
Inhaling through your nose and exhaling through your nose.
Follow your breath from the top of your inhale to the bottom of your exhale,
Noticing where one breath ends and the other begins.
On your inhale,
Breathe in permission to be here now.
And on your exhale,
Feel your body grounding as the Earth supports you.
Remember that a wandering mind is absolutely normal through meditation.
If at any point you find that your mind is wandering away,
Gently notice this distraction and come back to your intentional breathing.
Take a few more rounds of deep breaths,
Letting go of anything that does not serve you.
You are where you are meant to be.
Now,
Begin to imagine wherever you are in the world that you are facing a doorway.
This door is both loving and inviting.
Notice the energetic pull and attraction that you feel towards this door as you slowly approach the door and you gently push it open.
As you walk through the door,
You are met with a stream of fresh water,
Flowing water that is lined with magnificent trees.
There are stepping stones along the water and your heart guides your feet forward,
Traveling along these stepping stones.
On your walk,
The sounds around you are music to your ears.
The birds are singing.
Water is swimming over the rocks and down the stream.
The gentle wind is blowing through the branches and the leaves of the trees.
These sounds bring a warmth to your heart that you cannot explain.
With each step forward,
You feel yourself gravitating towards a place that feels like home.
You begin to make out ahead of you a tree that is both majestic and radiant.
It even appears that the tree is even radiating a peaceful,
Light,
Energetic field.
As you approach this tree,
You find a place by the thick tree trunk to sit.
You feel yourself as a part of this peaceful,
White,
Energetic field that the tree is radiating out.
And as you sit,
You feel an immediate connection as if the tree is calling for you.
You open your ears and your heart to hear what she has to say.
She welcomes you as if you have been friends your entire life.
Something about this feels like you are loved and accepted for all that you are.
You take in this love and you allow yourself to feel it through every cell of your body.
And then you begin to feel the tree is in pain.
She is grieving.
She shows you her sorrow and you realize that this grief is from her loss of life,
From years of abuse and not being appreciated for all that she provides.
You realize that this glorious tree is more than just a tree.
She is the center of Mother Earth,
Where her heart and her soul manifest life and love to all living creatures.
You feel the literal weight of the world and all that has been taken from her.
You grieve with her.
She does not allow you to carry this weight of the world.
And she tells you that all living things are one and the same.
There is no hierarchy of life.
As you consider this,
You feel as if you are being hugged.
From your heart and soul,
You feel the nurturing love surrounding you and you realize that the resiliency that Mother Earth embodies is also a part of you.
You slowly make your way back to standing as you stare up once again at the beauty surrounding you.
The gratitude you feel sends healing waves of energy to Mother Earth and to all of her creations.
That white energetic field radiating from the tree from Mother Earth is now a part of you and you have the power with your love and gratitude to radiate this light full of love to all.
You slowly begin to make your way back to those stepping stones,
Leading you along the creek,
The stream of fresh flowing water.
You take in the sounds and the surroundings with a new and improved lens of awe and appreciation.
The door makes its appearance to bring you back home.
As you go to open the door,
You feel a sense of determination to give back however you can to the beautiful mother that you just met.
For she is a part of you and to give back to her means to give back to yourself.
As you come out of this meditation,
Do so gracefully and gradually,
Taking in all that you have just experienced.
When you are ready,
Gently wiggle your toes and fingers and deepen your breaths,
Bringing awareness back to your immediate environment.
Slowly open your eyes and welcome this new life around you.
