Creating An Intimate Relation With The Earth
|
There are activities that you can do to facilitate the earth's presence into your life. An easy technique is pulling energy from the earth into your body. Visualize a place in the earth. I like to use the core center of the earth or the ground that is directly under my feet. I imagine immense amounts of energy coming from that place up through the earth and into my body. If I am sitting it comes up through my coccyx or perineum. Where I focus my attention the energy goes there. A favorite place for me is to fill my second chakra with the earth's energy. This connects to the functions of sexual energy and personal power. I allow it to fill that area to maximum intensity then I move onto other areas of my body. It always feels wonderful to fill my body completely with the earth. Our bodies are amazing instruments that do a lot of things that we are not currently accessing. The body is a catalyst of energetic transformation, where we put our consciousness we can change it. Therefore we can put our attention into the earth and we then begin to receive its expanded being. Unfortunately most people's attention is connected to the worry, sadness, stress and/or anger so they bring that into their body instead of something cool like our planet. The earth is a good place to let go of your anger or sadness into the ground. That kind of emotional energy is like a fertilizer for the earth, it can easily transform into its own kind of power. What you do is sit or lay on the earth and relax into your self. Then begin to relive the story of what happened that made you angry. What you are looking for is the visceral, energetic intensity of the body memory of your anger and its location in your body. The purpose of reliving the story is to stimulate the experience, once you feel the anger in you stop re-traumatizing yourself with the past experience and just remain focused on the body's feelings. When you perceive that you are in touch with the physical experience of the suppressed anger imagine the energy releasing out of you and into the earth. My release usually feels like a stream of emotions that pour out of me. It usually takes a minute or a few for it all to release. But for some deep emotional pains I have spent a few hours releasing. Afterwards I generally feel a huge weight released that allows something more infinite to come into my life. Cultures across the globe have found ways to emulate the earth's energy so that they can live in a connection to its consciousness. One technique that I find interesting is the low guttural chants of the Tibetan Monks. According to Greg Braden the purpose of the extreme bass chanting is to create harmony through out earth. If you allow the chant to be felt beyond your ears and actually feel it resonate in your body you will feel a soothing frequency. It is a basic vibration of the earth, as the planet seems to have many. Once you identify the vibration in your body you can duplicate it any time you wish. You will not need the monks to stimulate you. What I have found is that practicing the vibration can create more inner presence, a better connection to the earth and release emotional distress. One of the easiest ways to learn how to connect to the earth's presence is through trees. Trees are one of the easiest forms of nature to energetically connect to. The trees that seem to communicate with humans easier are ones that are grown in the forest and have lived in some kind of presence with people. My favorite place to commune with trees is at a local greenbelt that is wild yet has a daily influx of hikers. What I do is simple: I relax, lean against the tree and then ask my body to perceive the energy of the tree. I might even ask, “Body, will you connect to the energy of this tree" or “Hey, what's up?" Then I sit quietly in an inward state of being. What I generally feel is an energetic change in my body. My body is empathing the energy of the tree. It basically feels much more relaxed and lighter than my body (although small plants have a faster vibration). As I experience different varieties, sizes and shapes of trees I find that they are all different. Even the same species vary. As I have become more skilled the trees tell me simple messages about their lives. What I have learned about me through these interactions is my body is a sensory organ. It can pick up and interpret the energy of almost any living thing or being. Communication with trees opened me up to that possibility. Trees are less defensive than any other living being. Their openness makes them a good starter to developing psychic abilities. Once I learned about the energy of trees the energy of people became easier to read into. One of the important lessons that I have learned from the earth is that people and the earth have a symbiotic relationship. As we evolve, or devolve, the earth changes to our energy. What I have learned from that is to keep growing and facilitating others to transform. As we do that our vibrational patterns move to greater ease and joy. The best way that I create changes is by always looking at my own emotional blockages. It is basic stuff that most do not address such as: looking at my suppressed anger, the traumas of my life, guilt and finding ways to let them go. What begins to show up in my life is more happiness and a natural progression to communion with the earth's presence. Of course, I am in nature regularly to remind me of its greatness. Now it feels like it is never far away no matter where I am located. About The Author: Bart Sharp is an Access Learning Facilitator from Austin, TX.
