For this Sunday, May 16th, the focus for our meditation will be on the Earth. Some time ago we focused on being grounded, which means being connected to the Earth and being fully present in our body. Each week as we perform the meditation we draw upon the energy of the Earth, bringing it in to help fill our body with energy and help make us centered and grounded for the meditation. Native Americans refer to the planet as "Mother Earth," which represents their awareness of the Earth as a life-giving source. This week we want to emphasize the connection we have with the Earth, to increase our awareness of the vast stores of energy she possesses and that are available for us to draw upon in keeping ourselves grounded and healthy. Further, we want to ask that respect for the Earth grow across this country and that more people take steps to help sustain the Earth and its limited resources.
Please follow the same practice as before: Get centered in your body, ask to bring in your guides and others who are there to assist us, connect to the circle of others participating in this project, create the brilliant star-like light over the nation and extend blue rays to its four borders, then connect to the grid or matrix that extends from the circle.
Ask yourself how does it feel in my body when I am connected and grounded to the Earth? What does it feel like when I am aware of Mother Earth as a living being beneath my feet? How does it feel when I am mindful of the need to respect the Earth? Then send the energy and intention of that feeling to the grid for the nation.
Be sure to disconnect from the circle at the end and express thanks for those who have helped us in this effort.
If you have feedback or experiences you would like to share please let me know via e-mail to k_miritello@bellsouth.net or kmiritello@gmail.com
In association with this week's topic I would like to draw attention to one of the links on the Meditation Project blog for a site called Earth Clinic (www.earthclinic.com). Earth Clinic is one of the top 10 alternative health sites on the Internet and also hosts a monthly prayer group that often focuses attention on issues impacting the health of the planet.
