The Art of Hugging A Tree - 6 Easy Steps


Time out!  Life has been crazy.  It's time to reconnect to inner guidance and what better way to do that than by BEING IN NATURE and HUGGING A TREE! 
 
I love trees. Trees are a perfect representation and symbol of being grounded as well as connected to spirit. The roots are deeply embedded within the earth providing stability, the ability to manifest, absorbing nutrients while their branches reach towards the sky absorbing nutrients of light and connection and expression to life.  It's a perfect system. They are the flow of life. We pass by trees everyday.  They are all around us staying true to themselves, minding their own business, giving us so much just by being.  Do you ever stop to REALLY notice?

I wish they could talk, as I'm sure they could provide us with so much wisdom.  If you ever watched the movie, Lord of the Rings, my fantasy mind imagines it would be something like that!  Cool!  I'd go for a ride in one of their branches while they shared wisdom and guidance, helping me to change the world.  Ha! When I'm down, they always bring me great joy and connect me to what matters in life.  If I could hug a mountain, I would, but a tree is much easier and will have to do for now. 

Okay....Here is my 6-Easy Step Guide to the Art of Hugging A Tree (sprinkled with  a little humor):

Hint:  The best things in life are free. 

Step One
Center yourself - taking time to silence the mind and to connect with the elements of nature through your senses.

Step Two
Approach a tree with respect and begin to play peekaboo - to establish playfulness and trust.


Step Three
Have a serious moment of deep communication - don't hold back - ask the questions, cry if you have too, let it out.


Step Four
Embrace and embody the love, comfort, kindness, loyalty, compassion, strength and wisdom of the tree.



Step Five
Open your eyes - You are now connected and grounded - AAAAAAHHHH!


Step Six
Rejoice! - Give thanks and gratitude to our beautiful world we live in with a renewed spirit of being grounded and connected to ALL.


DON'T WAIT!  Get out there now and get yourself grounded and connected to your senses.  We need you well and it's time to be YOU in this world.

Let me know how it goes.

To your adventure,
