EARTH HOUR MEDITATION
(thank you Jennabeth for creating this meditation for us)
While the world is honoring Mother Earth with awareness by turning off lights at 8:30 PM in every time zone, the global CommonPassion community will be honoring in the deep and sacred space of meditation our connection to Gaia and all life with shared intentions of harmony and balance. Please join us wherever you are during Earth Hour in this global meditation sung from our hearts. Please feel free to pass this along to others.
THE MEDITATION (approximately 15-20 minutes)
Let us unite around the World in meditation, linking hearts and minds in unison; synchronizing in harmony and balance.
Begin by feeling your body's position and ensure that you are comfortable. Notice any tension in your body and then.... let it drain away.
In a moment I will ask you to take a couple of slow deep breaths in through your nose, comfortably filling your lungs, and sigh the breath effortlessly out through your mouth until your lungs are empty and in an unbroken cycle breathe in again.
Ready, one in ..... and out
Two in.... and out
Then, let your breath find its own rhythm;
Allow your eyes to close gently and leave the thoughts of daily life behind
Follow your natural rhythm of breathing deep into meditation.
Ignore any irrelevant sounds and focus your attention on the present.
Next, feel where your body is, notice any tensions or discomfort, adjust your position and let the tensions melt away. If your mind begins to wonder, just bring it back to the present moment by following your breath; as you breath in and as you breath out.
Notice how you are, connected to the Earth.
Feel (or Imagine) the ground beneath you, supporting you; and breathe!!
As you breathe, go deeper into your own Heart Centre connecting to that jewel in the centre of your heart and your Divine Spark within.
As you breathe, begin to see how with each-and-every breath you take, you are, connected in a symbiotic relationship with Mother Earth and all her inhabitants. All that we say, think and do is; reflected in ourselves, and in the world around us.
Wherever you are, right now, you are,connected to others, who, like you; around the globe; are joining in meditation.
From the rain forest to the desert; from the mountains, to the rivers and oceans, the cities and the countryside, people everywhere united as one, with a common goal. Protect and care for Earth and All Her inhabitants.
Feel yourself connected to Earth through the ground;
Feel yourself connected to all beings on Earth through the air;
We all breathe that same air;
Humans and every animal breathe the air; Trees and every plant breathe the air;
Air permeates the soil, and the water
It circulates the Earth in the Wind, in the atmosphere;
With every breath you take, as you breathe in and as you breathe out, you are, connected to all beings on Mother Earth,
Feel that connection, allow it to fill you.
Feel the joy and love in your Heart Centre as the recognition of Oneness sinks deep within. Feel at peace in your Spirit. Let that feeling grow within, allow it to fill every part of you;
Then see it spread from your Heart Centre to those around you.
Breathe!
As you breathe see, sense(or imagine) those harmonious feelings spreading from those around you to your local area. Send those feelings to the rest of the state, the country you live in, the Planet we share. see them flow around the whole earth; bathing the Entire Earth in harmony.
Allow this love to permeate, like musical notes, the tones of our intentions circulate in a wave of harmony. The wave spreads to the East, to the South, to the West, to the North. It ascends high Above, it sinks deep Below, it resonates Within.
We are, united in life, in giving and receiving, under the same Sky.
we are Of the Earth, we are a part of Her, and we share in this life with all Beings.
As Stewards and custodians, we combine our talents, and passions our hearts, minds and hands one cohesive goal
Join, together in the sanctuary of life, the human species, in protection of the life of our brother animals, the life of trees and plants, the life in the air and that in the water; in honour of all life of Mother Earth.
This is a time of celebration. The realization, 'that one person can make a difference'. As we unite in our common passions, to protect the Earth and her inhabitants.
"tis time for dawn; let the dawn come, for the task to be finished."
