Now begin to focus on the bottoms of your feet. As you bring all of your
awareness to the surface of the bottoms of your feet, you may start to feel
energy tingling here. This is the power of your own mind directing energy.
Continue to breathe slowly and deeply as you keep your focus on the
bottoms of the feet.
3. Envision Roots
Now, wherever your body connects to the floor or chair, envision roots
growing out of you, down into the core of the earth. You are being
connected to the energy of the dirt, trees, rocks, and slower living things on
the Earth that withstand the cycles of change on the planet.
The trees have seen many seasons come and go without falling over. The
rocks have been stable and steady as the things around it changed and
moved.
4. Feel Connected To Nature
Next, in your mind’s eye, feel that you are connected to these stable parts
of nature. They are a part of you, and you are a part of them. There is no
separation, only the illusion of it. You are also the mountains, the caves, the
fields, and the compact dirt beneath the topsoil.
This part of you, these parts of the whole being of the Earth, are there for us
to connect to stability and peace all the time. Every time you want to return
to a state of peace, think of a tree, a rock, or a mountain that is alive but
stable, supporting the world with its steadiness. That peacefulness is also a
part of you. Your body has metal, bone, solid material, and steadiness
within it as well. The spine is like a tree trunk in your body that is stable and
steady while things around you move.
You can focus on your solidness at anytime as well to reconnect to the
resonance of “groundedness”. The nature of the tree, the rock, and the
mountain is that they are still, just as you are now. Finding stillness will
always help you find this same sense of peace.
