Of course, every day is “Earth Day”, but today we get to really focus on it.
Let’s play. I know everyone is busy but I would really love it if you would join me in this simple, yet profound exercise. It will just take a few moments and I know you’ll enjoy it.
Step One: Think of everything on this planet that you love, that you enjoy and are grateful for. Think of the mountains, the oceans, the deserts, and the plants and animals all over the earth. Envision your favorite spot in nature and how it makes you feel. Include the people and pets you love and the experiences you are grateful for.
Really fill your heart up with all of this gratitude. Can you feel it?
Step Two: Imagine, as in the picture above, that you are holding this beautiful planet in your hands, or even hugging it with your arms. Then pour all of your heart-filled gratitude, love and appreciation into the earth. Feel it pouring into her and filling her up. Thank her for all the beauty and nourishment she provides.
Step Three: Then, feel her love for you coming right back into you! Receive this. Fill yourself up with her love and appreciation.
Know that you are an invaluable and integral player in this world right now. You are part of the greater whole – what you do matters – to others and to the planet. Giving and receiving. The Earth is doing this too!
When I first started doing this practice I was overcome with emotion. I knew I loved the planet, but to feel her love for me, despite all the harm we’ve done (and are still doing), was deeply moving. Frankly, it leaves me awestruck every time.
How was that for you? Maybe you feel calmer, lighter, happier?
Thanks for playing with me. Hit reply and share your experiences – I’d love to hear from you.
May all beings know love,
Colleen
