There are times when we might feel the need to wash away all of
our troubles and call forth freshness into our lives. Since perhaps the most
cleansing substance on this earth is water, we can think of the joy rain
brings as an energetic bath, rejuvenating our minds, bodies and souls. Just
being able to spend a few moments every time it rains to become aware of the
healing powers water brings to us can renew us in so many ways. As we do this
we will find that the more we appreciate the universe's gift to us in the
form of rain, the more we can see that a gentle rain shower is a strong
reflective tool that has the ability to cleanse our entire being.
The next time it rains might be a good chance to experience the rain through
all of your senses, allowing you to truly understand just how truly important
each and every drop of water is. First, take a few minutes to look outside
and notice how each individual raindrop seems to come down in a continual
stream. By noticing this you can contemplate how it takes many small
accomplishments to create the whole of your existence, for nothing exists in
isolation. Then you might wish to focus your attention on the sound of the
rainfall, letting the sounds of drops penetrate into the innermost recesses
of your self. Listening in this way may bring you a greater sense of
connection with nature and the world around you, knowing that the sounds you
hear are an integral part of not just the physical sustenance you require but
also nourish your spirit as well.
Consciously using our senses to feel nature's healing energy as it comes to
us in the form of rain is an act of internal cleansing. Just as the rain
physically washes over the earth and rinses out any impurities and
imperfections, so it also bathes our spirit in the joy that comes from
knowing that we are in fact one with the world around us.
