Through all the challenges on Mother Earth, it is vital to stay in the peace...wherever you can find it. In a flower, in the sun, in your breath, for just a few minutes. Find this, as this is who you really are, and connect. Stay there for as long as you can.
Do you ever feel depressed, angry, or sad at what you witness on earth? I want to share with you a way to see differently to help you uplift yourself and the earth. It's something that helps me after many years of struggling with these feelings.
Here are a few examples of scenes from the earth that pull at my heart strings...
An overload of 'waste' (and recycling here) on the earth
Pollution of our air
Using precious resources (water) for something I feel is insignificant (clean sidewalks)
More impervious surface, more people, more waste
Clearing of trees for housing, right along a creek that needs forest for protection
Chickens stuffed in small cages, on a semi truck, being transported to a processing factory
WHAT CAN YOU DO? I have had feelings come up of anger, fear, sadness when I see or know of her mistreatment or lack of care. I asked the earth, please show me where the love is here because i'm not seeing or feeling it at this moment. I would cry often and get so angry that something needed to change. I know I needed to change too.
The earth told me that my anger and sadness will not help her, instead send love to these people, animals, rivers, etc., in whatever way you can. Tell them you love them in your heart. See the love and the joy that still exists.
And then I heard her tell me, say these three lines when you experience these feelings:
I want to see the love here
I want to feel the love here
I want to be the love
Now look at one of these images again and say these three lines over a few times-how do you feel? Do you see and feel the love that is really present? Love is really everywhere in everything, even in the overwhelming, dark, struggling places. It is there. And it is within all of us. It starts with YOU.
At a later time, these 3 lines then evolved to:
I see the love here
I feel the love here
I am love
Say these phrases whenever you come upon a contrast/struggle/challenge to help transform (not ignore) the emotions, uplift yourself, transform yourself, and even perhaps inspire yourself to take an action to improve the well-being of the planet.
Yes, you read this right, you can sing for plants of the planet! Why would you do this? Many scientific studies have found that your words, the vibration you give, the energy from you, matters. It can affect other life, and that includes plants. So why not uplift the planet through plants!
We have seen disharmony across the planet, the pollution, health challenges, extreme changes in our climate. How can we improve life here? By sharing our love, uplifting others, smiling, caring for each other all life here.
You can do this by singing a beautiful song called love, peace and harmony!
This song carries the vibration of love, peace and harmony, and can be sung in any language. Here's a website that has the words translated, and a free MP3 download of others singing the song. This song was created in a very special forest in northern California (the Redwoods), so it already has a beautiful connection to plants!
Why sing to plants? Plants (trees, shrubs, grasses, cacti, etc.) provide many services to the earth, including to us humans, providing wildlife habitat and jobs, cleaning the air, keeping rivers healthy, and giving us many resources we use like paper and clothing. But much of the earth as mentioned above is experiencing great challenges, and plants can help, so can singing to them.
How do you begin?
#1) SET an INTENTION: You can say, 'Dear the song of Love, Peace and Harmony, I love and appreciate you. Please come to bring love, peace and harmony to all the plants of Mother Earth, thank you!'
#2) SING! You can watch the video below, you can sing in your home, on your porch, out in the woods, as you're walking or even on a kayak (like me!). You can find one plant and sing to it-connect with it and sing with all your love. See how you feel as you sing, and if you notice any difference in life around you.
#3) TAKE one STEP FURTHER & SING EACH DAY for 15-MINUTES! If you are moved to do so, join others around the world that are committed to uplifting the earth and pledge to sing 15-minutes each day through this link on the Love, Peace Harmony Foundation website. You can also bring together a small or large group of others to sing with you on a weekly basis. The more that gather to contribute, the better!
#4) EVEN ONE MORE STEP FURTHER, PLANT PLANTS! There is a very special project on earth called PLANT A MILLION, where you simply pledge to plant and care for plants of the earth. Here is a link where you can see more information and connect!
THANK YOU for caring for Mother Earth, and please share your experiences below in the comments and let me know how you feel!
I am excited to share with you a new initiative to improve life on earth, one plant a time, through Love, Peace Harmony Foundation's PLANT A MILLION initiative!
It's simply planting more plants on the earth, registering/pledging them on our website, and taking care of them with great love.
Think you can do this? We need one million by 2020!
Check out this website for more information, please reach out if you have any questions!
