ABC’s of Actively Being Conscious: G is for Gaia
As I sit to write this today, a fresh breeze is blowing gently through the window. The wind chimes are tinkling softly and I hear a songbird singing outside. The sun is warming the soil and the air, feeding the plants with its light, and the little lizards poke out of their hiding spots and scramble across the warm, red earth.
Aren’t we just incredibly blessed to live on this beautiful planet?
Today, do yourself a favor and treat yourself to a conscious connection with the being that is this place; with Mother Earth, also known as Gaia.
It’s not hard to do and it’s surprisingly satisfying. All it really requires is your taking a moment to consciously connect with her.
If you have access to nature, or even just to outdoors, that can help. But even if not, and even if you’re in the middle of a city, you can still do this easily.
It’s not a mental thing but you can prepare by noticing how everything around you has been a gift from her. If you’re outdoors, it’s obvious. If you’re indoors, notice that everything there is a gift of the earth as well. Take your furniture, for example. It’s made from wood from her living trees, upholstery from her living cotton plants, or if it’s synthetic it’s produced using oil that’s made from ancient living beings.
