As humans, we have a sacred connection to Mother Earth. It’s important to savor that connection. Being a part of Earth’s history is both an blessing and an honor. When you commit yourself to loving, blessing and honoring the Earth, that consciousness and energy of love spreads to others.
Earthism for the Sacred Connection to Mother Earth
I bless and honor the sacred connection I have with Mother Earth. I am grateful for this connection to all living things. I honor this blessing. I bless the sacred path I am on. I see the Earth as my Sacred Mother. I am honored to be Earth's caretaker and take full responsibility for this honor. I listen intently to the natural environment all around me and honor the gift she gives us. By listening, I feel connected to the land, to my evolutionary past and to myself again. I understand that it is my right to choose my path and that this is a sacred privilege. I honor that part of me that is connected to that which is greater than me and that part of me connected to Gai. I have great faith in the sacred journey of life. I am the consciousness and energy of love, source, divine consciousness, infinite wisdom, and faith. I walk the sacred path of my life with graciousness and gratitude. I strive to be open to the quiet whispering of my soul and I thank Mother Earth for this divine connection we so graciously share.

How can you live as a more heart-centered individual? How can you expand your capacity to love? One thing you can do is to strive for global coherence. “The Global Coherence™ Initiative is a science-based, co-creative project to unite people in heart-focused love and intention, to facilitate the shift in global consciousness from instability and discord to compassionate care, cooperation, and increasing peace.”
This important initiative, based on the work HeartMath does, is all about finding ways to make an evolutionary leap to a more compassionate, cooperative, and peaceful way of being. That is one of the reasons we thought it was so important to focus on as one of our lovely EARTHisms.
Earthism for Global Coherenc
I bless and honor my ability and capacity to love myself and the Planet unconditionally. I strive for global coherence and to unite people in heart-focused love and intention. I bless and acknowledge the need to facilitate a shift in global consciousness from instability and discord to compassionate care, cooperation and increasing peace. I aim to become a Global Coherence Emissary so I can do my part in making an evolutionary leap to a more compassionate, cooperative, and peaceful way of being. I bless my ability to add heart to my daily life and to the Planet I share. I honor the interconnectedness between humanity, plants and animals, and the sun and earth’s magnetic activity. I commit to helping awaken the heart of humanity through my life and my work. I strive to align and connect my heart and mind and to connect with others, so I may awaken the higher mental, emotional, and spiritual capacities that frequently lie dormant. This is my greatest desire and honor. May I live every day as a heart-centered and heart-empowered individual. May I choose the path of unconditional love, and bring my physical, mental, and emotional systems into balanced alignment with my heart’s intuitive guidance. We thank and honor HeartMath.org for their important work in this matter.

Richard Buckminster Fuller “Bucky” was an American architect, systems theorist, author, designer, inventor, philosopher, critic of work, and futurist. Bucky had one of the most fascinating and original minds of his century.
Born in 1895 in Milton, Massachusetts, he was the latest – if not the last – of the New England Transcendentalists. Bucky took an unconventional path and was inspired to find a way to use natural resources more efficiently to ensure there would be enough to take care of everyone, which is why we created an EARTHism specifically for him!
Earthism for Honoring Bucky Fuller
We bless and honor R. Buckminster “Bucky” Fuller for the work you were divinely inspired to create. We honor your contributions and the unconventional path you took. We honor your quest to use natural resources more efficiently to ensure there would be enough to take care of everyone. We thank you for inspiring so many people and humanity as a whole to think on a more global scale, and to think about what we might do as individuals to solve global problems for the betterment of 100% of humanity. We thank you for the Geodesic Dome, the Dymaxion House, and the Dymaxion Car. We honor your desire to make the world a more sustainable place. We thank you for your dream of a world where the resources of the planet would be equitably divided, to allow people all around the world to achieve a high standard of living with access to technologically-advanced housing and transportation. We are so grateful to live on Spaceship Earth and to continue your mission. May we never forget the importance of one person’s contribution. May we never forget that each of us is unique and that no matter how overwhelming life's challenges and problems seem to be, that one person, who could even be us, can make a difference in the world. We honor you and thank you!

When was the last time you took a few moments to love, honor, and cherish the planet? What can you do to make the world a healthier, happier place? We created EARTHisms to help the planet heal, one person at a time. If you’ve been looking for a way to give back to the planet for everything she so unselfishly provides, EARTHisms are the perfect solution.
The EARTHism for Loving Mother Earth is something small you can do, to help the world heal. As you work with EARTHisms, notice how it feels to send love and appreciation to the Planet. Make a note of any thoughts, words, or phrases that come to mind as you think about it and reflect upon the impact you can make on the world by following it. Make a pact with yourself to find gratitude and joy along life’s crooked path and to bless, honor, and cherish the Earth every day.
Earthism for Loving Mother Earth
I bless Mother Earth and dream of a day when we can all lovingly co-exist without anger, pain, hunger, or fear. I bless the darkness and look towards the light. I bless my ability to live on a peaceful planet where all souls unite. I bless my ability to connect with the energy of love and to live with an open heart. I know that as Confucius taught "To put the world in order, we must first put the nation in order; to put the nation in order, we must put the family in order; to put the family in order, we must cultivate our personal life; and to cultivate our personal life, we must first set our hearts right.” I dream of a day when all humans can live in communion and live without fear. I bless our ability to awaken and ascend to a higher level of consciousness where we can all support each other and work with each other in love. I bless the spirit of love on Planet Earth and send Mother Earth love, kindness, and compassion. I thank you for gifting us your lovely planet and know that we can all work together to create a more peaceful, loving earth for ourselves and for those we leave behind. We thank you so much and feel honored to be in your graceful presence. And we thank David Roth for his song Earth that inspired some of this invitation.

Imagine living in a world and on a planet where the natural world and human life were integrated in ways that benefited all. What would that really mean? The transition toward an ecological civilization will require transformation at a far deeper level than most people can even imagine. It requires a paradigm shift. It goes far beyond changes like adopting renewable energy, driving electric cars, and eating less meat. An ecological civilization is a heart-centered civilization where everyone is a part of the whole. We would encourage you to practice this EARTHism and dream of a world where everyone is operating at their absolute best, including the Planet!
Earthism for Ecological Civilization
I bless the world's ecological civilization. May we all be committed to moving to a more balanced ecological civilization where we are invested in and interested in the relationship of human life to the natural world. May we all live in a world and on a planet where the natural world and human life are integrated in ways that benefit all. May we live in a world and exist in a system that is highly diverse and, in a world where all things work together for the good of all and in a world where the whole flourishes. I bless this heart-centered global population that is focused on how we can make the world work, for 100% of humanity in the shortest possible time, through spontaneous cooperation, without ecological offense or disadvantage of anyone. May we live in a world that is not one based on competition and rivalry, but in a world where we focus on who is giving back and doing their best and in a world that is based primarily on cooperation. What a beautiful world that is going to be! Parts of this Blessism were taken from an R. Buckminster Fuller quote.

What would happen if everyone on the planet started treating their little corner of the Earth as their own personal Zen Garden? What if you woke up every day, offering the planet love, kindness, and compassion? Honoring the Earth means treating the earth as a place of refuge. It also involves respecting the Earth. If each of us just did one small thing, in our little corner of the world, to make our world a more peaceful and tranquil place, the planet would literally be a different place. Do your part in honoring the Earth by treating it as your own lovely Zen Garden.
Earthism for Treating Mother Earth as a Zen Garden
I bless Planet Earth and honor Mother Earth as my very own personal Zen Garden. I vow to treat the Earth with love, kindness and with the utmost of compassion. I bless and acknowledge Mother Earth for all the lovely Zen treasures she offers us, from water, to trees, to stone, sand, plants, moss, and gravel. I thank Mother Earth for being a place where I can find peace, serenity, and joy. I seek to be the Zen Master of my beautiful Earth Garden. I honor Planet Earth as a place of refuge and reflection just like the beautiful Zen Garden. As the poet William Blake once said, "I strive to see a world in a grain of sand and heaven in a wild flower.” I love and honor the Planet as much as I love and honor myself. Today and every day, I seek to unite with Mother Earth and become one with her endless treasures.

What can you do to make the world a better place? How can you take personal responsibility for the health of the planet? Believe it or not, there is a lot you can do as one person. Each of us has the choice to either take care of the Planet or to treat it harshly and unkindly. You can choose to treat the Earth with love, kindness, and compassion and bless and honor your role as a caretaker of Planet Earth. This EARTHism is a wonderful one to practice to take personal responsibility to make the world a better place.
Earthism for YOU Taking Responsibility!
I bless Planet Earth and take personal responsibility in doing my part in taking care of the Earth. I realize I have a choice to either take care of the Planet or to treat it harshly and unkindly. I choose to treat the Earth with love, kindness, and compassion. I bless and honor my role as a caretaker of Planet Earth. I commit to doing my part and taking responsibility for my actions. I vow to be eco-responsible and to take care of my environment and of the world around me as much as I can. I use water consciously and avoid wasting other vital resources. I take daily actions to save energy and choose eco-responsible means of transport whenever possible. I commit to recycling, reusing, or donating when I can. I bless my ability to be a responsible consumer and to choose biodegradable and reusable products. I honor the Planet by not contaminating common spaces with trash and by composting when I am able. I make a point to create ecological awareness by teaching and sharing my views with others. I bless and honor the planet and the essential role Planet Earth plays in my life and I am eternally grateful for your service. Thank you for being so spectacular!

Have you ever stopped to think about the undiscovered mysteries and treasures of life? What is it that we still don’t know or what might we still discover? We don’t yet know, what we don’t yet know. Imagine the possibilities if we suddenly discovered new natural resources, or a natural cure for cancer? What if we found another sustainable source of energy that is totally unlike anything we have ever thought about? Taking the time to bless the unknown discoveries is a wonderful thing to do which is why we love this EARTHism so much!
Earthism for X - Unknown Discoveries and Natural Resources
I bless all the beautiful, unknown, and as yet undiscovered resources and new discoveries that will help make the world a happier, healthier, and more balanced place. May we create, find, or discover new sustainable resources for those things in demand such as food, water, building materials, minerals, natural pharmaceutical remedies, cures for chronic diseases and more blessings. I bless the sacred journey into the unknown today and bless the undiscovered mysteries of life. May humans always be open to the vast possibilities all around them. I bless these prospective resources that can help us function better as a society and I bless the vast new discoveries that are already coming our way.

We all know how important water is for the human body, but we may not realize how important water is to the planet. Water serves as a habitat for more than 50% of all life on Earth. It not only preserves life, but it also irrigates crops and is an integral part of agriculture. Taking a moment to bless the energy of water is such a simple thing to do, which is why we love this EARTHism for water so much.
Earthism for Water
I bless the energy of water. I send water love, kindness, and compassion. I bless water for the nutrients it brings to all the cells of the body as well as oxygen to the brain. I bless water for its role in all facets of life. Without you, there would be no vegetation on land, and no oxygen for animals to breathe. I bless all the good water brings to Planet Earth including fertile fields, stabilizing temperature, cleaning and breaking down waste as well as enabling reproduction. I thank water for being a loving medium through which all essential vitamins and minerals are transported throughout the bodies of all living organisms. I thank water for serving as a habitat for more than 50% of all life on Earth. I honor water for its ability to preserve life. I thank you for your ability to irrigate crops and for being an integral part of agriculture. I bless water as a finite resource and humbly apologize for any times we have mismanaged water or wasted water. May we all be more aware of the life-giving role water plays on Planet Earth and may we honor water as one of the most significant blessings we could ever have.

While you may not stop to think about the importance of the world’s volcanoes, they are an integral part of the Earth. Volcanic materials ultimately break down and weather to form some of the most fertile soils on Earth. The cultivation of this earth has produced abundant food and fostered civilizations for longer than you can imagine. The internal heat of volcanoes associated with young volcanic systems has also been harnessed to produce geothermal energy. That is quite a lot of benefits to something most people don’t think about a lot. Let’s celebrate and bless the beautiful volcano today!
Earthism for Volcanoes
I bless all the magnificent volcanoes of the world. I thank you for all the wonderful benefits for our environment including atmospheric cooling, land formation, water production, fertile land, geothermal energy and for the raw materials you so lovingly provide. I honor your ability to create some of the most fertile soils on Earth through the breakdown of your materials. I thank you for the possibility you create for natural geothermal energy. I thank and bless your eruptions which formed the entire Hawaiian Island chain. I thank volcanic rock for your use in metal polishes and woodworking. I bless the crushed rock and ground pumice which can be used for loose-fill insulation, filter aids, poultry litter, soil conditioner, sweeping compound, insecticide carrier, and blacktop highway dressing. I bless and honor the great volcano for everything it does for the Planet, and I thank you!
