On entering a quiet park or forest, that has a variety of trees. Stand quietly amongst the trees and close your eyes. Take a few deep breaths and release all thoughts from your mind. Then allow your consciousness to drop through your body, and to settle within your heart chakra. With your eyes now open, but unfocused, start walking through the trees. You should be able to feel the energy of each tree as you enter its aura. When you find an energy that feels right for you, mentally ask the tree for permission to physically make contact. If you then feel that it is right to do so, approach the tree and place your back against it. Feel the energy of the tree resonating within you. Which one of your chakras does this tree seem to affect the most? Once you have selected your tree you can then hug it, once again this is very simple to do. find a strong tree

Position your feet so that they are flat on the ground, if possible, remove your shoes so that your feet are making contact with the earth, this will aid in the grounding process. Now wrap your arms around the trunk of the tree, close your eyes, and take at least three deep breaths, loosening your muscles at the same time. Acknowledge any negativity you may have stored in your system, thoughts of worry, anxiety, past hurts, grudgers, physical pain and other bad energy. Now release then one by one to the earth, watching them sink deep into the soil beneath you, imagine that energy being soaked up, and neutralized by the earth’s healing energies.

When you are ready, imagine the healing energy of the earth begin rising up through the soles of your feet, you can imagine this energy as having a color, even a texture. Feel this energy rising up through your limbs. Into your torso, your arms, your shoulders, your neck and head then out through the crown of your head.

Now visualize pure healing white light from the universe streaming down into you through the crown of your head. Imagine this light flowing throughout your body, and sink into the ground through the soles of your feet. See the two energies mixing within your body, harmonizing and balancing your energies. Allow both energies to run for a few minutes.

It is important to breathe deeply and slowly while you do this exercise. You might feel tingling, buzzing, warmth or energy coursing through your body, all of which is normal. If you feel yourself getting dizzy slow down the energy flow, and take it easy for a few minutes. Slowly bring yourself back to the present and detach yourself from the tree gently. Thank the healing tree for its assistance, as well as mother earth for her healing and loving energies.

I think this practice is a powerful one because we can be so disconnected from nature in our modern world yet we are a product of nature.
Mother Nature is just life energy and so in reconnecting with her she can help us remove the obstructions and free this energy returning it to source while allowing it to flow through us in a way that allows us to live fully connected with life.
