For this Sunday, May 20th, the focus for our
meditation will be on Groundedness. Our increasing reliance on electronic devices
has not only disconnected us from each other but also lessened our connection
to the earth. There are constant calls
for us to preserve, honor and respect the earth, but how can we do so if we
cannot feel our connection to her? There
is a trend in healing called “earthing” that uses various methods to increase
our physical and energetic connection to the earth in order to promote or speed
healing. The Japanese have a practice known
as “forest bathing” which has become a key part of their natural approach to
health. Spending time in nature, such as
taking a walk through the woods, helps reduce stress, lower blood pressure, and
improve mood, among other benefits.
There are many things creating tension and anxiety in our nation, and no
one solution will fix them all. To heal
these ills that plague us will require a mosaic of approaches, one of which is
to improve our sense of Groundedness and thus enhance our connectedness
with not only the earth but with each other.
If we can feel a stronger connection with the earth it will bring us the
centered calmness we need to improve our relationships with others as
well. This week in our prayer and
meditation time let us ask for greater Groundedness to help heal not
only ourselves but also our nation. Let
us ask that all people across this country come to better appreciate their bond
with the energy of the earth and carry that same sense of Groundedness
into all aspects of their life.
In our efforts this week let us also continue to use the
energy of our prayers and meditation to amplify the light that covers and fills
this nation. As we perform our
meditation this week let us begin by re-energizing the brilliance and power of
the light we create. Just as before,
begin by forming a concentrated ball of light that is so bright it is almost
impossible to look directly at it. Raise
this sphere of light up high over the nation and then let its rays cascade down
to create a solid, impenetrable dome of light that completely covers every inch
of our country. From shore to shore and
border to border let the entire continent be filled with this brilliant, dense
light that will serve to magnify the best and highest qualities of our country
and the people who live across its vast lands.
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,
and connect to the circle of others participating in this project.
Ask yourself what do I feel in my body when I am aware of
how beneficial it is to be fully aware of my energetic connection with the
earth that brings me to a state of Groundedness?
How does it feel in my body when I appreciate that being fully Grounded helps me strengthen my
connections to the earth and to others? Then send the energy and
intention of those feelings to the nation.
Be sure to disconnect from the circle at the end and express
thanks for those who have helped us in this effort.
