Mother Earth

Chaos reigns, everything spirals, I withdraw,

From the world, from friends, from family.

A surge in my body of shame, of guilt, of worry, of blame, of abandonment.

Why me, what did I do? Why is this happening? What am I feeling? Is it all mine?

What will they think? What will they say? How can I face them today?

Tomorrow, next week? If ever? Oh, the pain worsens, I can't bear it all.

Round and round and round I trudge, trapped in a loop, not willing to budge.

No one can see me stumble, no one can see me fall.

Where will I go from here? I think I can just about crawl. No wait, I'm drowning.

Under the weight of it all. Uncomfortable in my own mind, my own body and my own soul. How did I let it get like this? On the brink of a sinking ship?

Is it time to release? Time to forgive? Is it time to make peace?

Can it be done? Where do I start? I am completely broken apart.

My feet start to wander. My heart hears a call. Out of the house I walk, not knowing where to go. Exhausted to the core, I sit beneath a majestic tree to rest my weary bones. A pulsing commenced, and I clearly heard, welcome home.

Are you ready to let go? You are safe and secure. You are cared for, my child, and now is the time to surrender. I allowed my eyes to lower their gaze and I knew I was in the right place as I felt the sun's rays caress my face and warm my soul.

I took a deep breath and exhaled with a sigh for what seemed like forever. As forever was what I was carrying, yet now it was becoming lighter and lighter. I grew heavier and heavier until I merged with the tree.

The stable, strong and secure tree trunk was supporting me, I felt tingling and buzzing in the soles of my feet, as my roots grew out, long, wide and deep.

I was grounded, connected and supported by an untouchable, incredible force.

I could no longer resist, my muscles tensed, my body shook, the tears rolled down my face. A lifetime of pain I could no longer carry was swept far away

By the golden light that washed over me from head to toe.

Thank you, thank you, thank you, I whispered.

How can I ever repay your kindness? I murmured.

Don't forget me, she said, come visit me often to rest your head and share your song.

Nature is magic and her frequency is strong.

Allow her to raise your vibration, to connect and ground you and you won't go wrong. Heal yourself in the arms of Mother Earth, allow her to embrace you and in return…

Protect this beautiful world.

For we are one and one is we.

Time to share your light for all to see.

With love and gratitude,
