HAPPY EARTH DAY 2021!
In this special episode I explore 4 ways to connect to the earth and why this connection is important for the restoration of our soul. I love the and the earth loves me back in the glorious moments of connection with a magical tree, the honoring of the indigenous and native people who lived and stewarded this land, the magic of a blooming garden, and the power of deeply feeling gratitude for the earth.
It is a reciprocol relationship we seem to have stepped away from, just like we've stepped away from our souls.
What happens when we connect to the earth? We begin the process of connecting deeper with our truest nature. “We need acts of restoration, not only for polluted waters and degraded lands, but also for our relationship to the world. "We need to restore honor to the way we live, so that when we walk through the world we don’t have to avert our eyes with shame, so that we can hold our heads up high and receive the respectful acknowledgment of the rest of the earth’s beings.” ― Robin Wall Kimmerer, Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge, and the Teachings of Plants
