Why a Spiritual Connection with Earth is Critical at this Time

Intellectually, we all know the reasons why we need to change our behaviours and attitudes towards our earth.

Climate change, nutritionally depleted soils, unsafe drinking water, disappearing forests and vanishing wildlife are all drastic repercussions of humanity’s actions.

Unfortunately, inspite of all of this glaring evidence before our eyes, most of the population is still walking around as though business is as usual.

Many are still attached to out- dated ideals and beliefs about how we do things, or are too unwilling to give up certain aspects of our lifestyle that we have come to believe are necessary to our happiness.

Or for many, they are simply unaware that there is another way to be. Society does not teach anything different than this.

The problem is that we are failing to actually connect with the earth that we are living on. Still seen as a “thing” that we happen to live upon instead of our mother who we are actually a part of.

If we approach the earth and nature from an open, spiritual perspective, we soon realize that our life upon this earth becomes an interaction and exchange with our surroundings. There is absolutely no moments where you will not be interacting and experiencing on some level or another that blissful sense of oneness with all that is.

Our illusion that we are separate dissolves.

Ancient cultures lived and breathed this way of life, and there are still communities of people around the world who live this way. But it doesn’t have to be a part of our culture or immediate heritage to follow this way of life. It is easy for any typical person to live their life spiritually connected with the earth.

We are all her children, after all, and this connection is still alive inside of us. It simply has to be woke up.

In fact, it is our soul’s desire and part of our purpose for being here at this crucial time.

There is no time to waste to reclaim our Divine connection with our mother. And perhaps the most beautiful experience awaiting you is that when you decide that you are going to reconnect with nature, you will find that nature has been there waiting patiently for your return home. Nature has been waiting to heal you since the moment that you were born.

As you reconnect, you will discover that you will not be scolded or reprimanded, nor will you be punished.

You will be met with open arms and unconditional love. You will know what it feels like to be truly loved and appreciated for who you are. Nature can see our Divine light, just as it teaches us to see the Divine light in all life.

We will recognize that everything has a consciousness, and we will honor that every plant, animal, rock, mineral, drop of water, insect, absolutely everything upon this earth has a purpose and we will love and honor their role here as we all help one another through out our ascension.

We are all here ascending, and we are all in this together. We chose to be on this earth through this process, and the earth has chose to help us as well.

Nature is here for us.

Simply open your heart.

Speak to the trees, your pets, all animals. Tell that bird how much you enjoyed their song. You don’t have to speak out loud, nature is telepathic. You can state these things even as you are falling asleep at night, as gratitiude is a great way to relax your mind and body.

You will find that you wake up peaceful or that your dreams were visited by a messenger from nature with a wisdom for you.

Walk barefoot as much as you possibly can, notice the sensation of the wind on your face, the sun on your skin, feel nature the way that nature feels itself and feels your presence when you walk by her.

Notice plants reaching out to you. They long to feel your touch upon their leaves.

Ask nature to heal you, teach you. Be observant and take note of all life that crosses your path. Look into animal and plant symbolism.

Nature is a constant reflection of the life that is around her, therefore she is constantly communicating to us. She is constantly sharing her wisdoms with those who will listen.

No life is better than another. We are not entitled nor superior. As I said earlier, we are all in this together and we have all chose to be here to help one another during this process.

Showing love, respect, and gratitude towards the earth is how we help her ascend.

To nature, there is no death. She is constantly breathing in and out like the tides. She is constantly transforming. So before you take a bite of your meal, give thanks to the earth for nourishing and supporting you. Show your appreciation. Live your appreciation.

As your connection strengthens, you will find it imposiible to not stop and pick up a piece of trash when you are walking. You will long to be outside more. You will be pleased and fulfilled with simpler, quiet activities. You will begin to notice the noise of man.

Recycling will become more and important to you and the wants for many “things” will vanish as you realize how unecessary most of them really are.

Your presence will become gentler, and others will gravitate towards you. You will discover that absolutely everything that you do is felt by the earth and that no act of kindness that you display goes unnoticed.

Take the time to step around bugs on the ground.

It is when we begin to live this way that we are truly seeing the world through the eyes of nature herself, and through the eyes of a child. Our own inner nature child awakens.

We see the world as the magical place that she really is, and we live our lives in a way that will not compromise her.

And this is when everything that we have learned intellectually, all of the evidence that we have been given, truly becomes integrated into our being.

We feel what we are doing to the earth, and we know the consequences.

We have developed a bond with our mother and we feel our connection with nature and know that we are all family.

We understand the intellectual reasons for change and we live the solution because it is our soul’s longing to do so.

We become loving caretakers of our beautiful earth.

With the innocence of a child, the Divine presence is able to flow through us unobstructed and uninhibited.

And our lives become the magic that they were always meant to be.

I hope that you have found this helpful, and I would love to hear from you!

I'm learning to practice this advice on a daily basis. Picking up trash on my nature walks with our dog is now part of the routine. This past week I dragged a broken office chair, thrown into our park, from the half way point of our walk back to the trash bins where it belonged - 20 minutes worth of dragging using the dogs leash as a lasso - good workout.
