opening to nature


Shinrin Yoku

*Forest bathing*


Open and immerse your senses in nature ~

Reset your body-mind rhythm to the rhythms of the forest ~

Spending time in Nature is a balm ~


Practicing Shinrin Yoku is a way to 
open to nature
in a new and deeper way
through stillness, awareness and noticing.



Here is a Shinrin Yoku experience meditation~

Open
to the invitations of the forest.
Is a particular tree whispering to you to stand close by ? 
Notice
the tree's bark,
feel the bark as your palms rest on it. 
How does it feel ?
Does it have a scent ?

Look up and notice the height of the tree and the design of it's limbs and branches.
Pause and open to the energy of the tree.
How do you feel ?

Bring your awareness to your feet and their touch on the ground.
Imagine roots extending from the bottoms of your feet and traveling into the earth, just like the tree.

Allow your roots to intermingle with the tree's roots.
Feel your connection to the earth, the tree
and to yourself.
Breathe in from the earth, up through
your roots,
and draw the earth's strength into your body and head.
Breathe gratitude out through your feet 
and into the earth. 

What do you need in this moment ?
Nurturing, peace, clarity, love?
Whatever you need, breathe it in
from the earth.

Open your physical senses to the forest. Are there birds singing ?
Is there a breeze caressing your cheek ?
How many shades and shapes of green do you see ?
How do you feel as you notice these sensory delights ?


As you slow down and
open your senses,
your mind, emotions, body and 
spirit
open more fully to the healing
benefits and gifts of
nature
