If you are feeling anxious, sad, or drained, try hugging a tree and allow her vast amount of grounding energy to assist you. Trees are among the world's greatest givers. Their slow and
gentle life cycles provide the world with clean air, their roots filter
water, and their majestically spreading branches provide shade. Full of
vibrant, natural energy, trees can also give us the gifts of peace and
nurturance. Hugging or sitting with your spine against the trunk of any tree
can ground your body and inspire a profound closeness with nature as the
energy of the tree connects to you. Making physical contact with a tree can
help you relax, alleviate stress, sleep more deeply, and hold on to more
positive energy. Trees can absorb great amounts of energy and have the
ability to soak up harmful energy from deep within you. If you are feeling
anxious, sad, drained, or tense, then try hugging a tree. Go to the woods, a garden, or a park, and find a tree that you would like to
hug. Stand next to the tree and close your eyes. Relax your senses while
breathing in the scent of leaves and bark. Listen to the creaking of the
branches. When you feel settled, open your eyes, keeping them unfocused, and
walk around its trunk. Feel the unique energy of the tree as your auras meet
each other. Ask the tree for permission to touch it. If you feel the tree
saying yes to you, begin breathing in its energy. Put your arms around the
trunk and press your face to its bark. Embrace the tree for as long as
you wish, feeling the roughness of its wood and the strength of its years.
Relax into that strength and let the tree support you. You may even be able
to physically feel a cyclical flow of energy taking place between your body
and the tree. You can sit with your back pressed to the tree for the same effect if you
feel more comfortable doing so. Likewise, if you are seeking greater comfort,
you may want to wrap your legs and arms around the tree, either at the base
or by straddling a branch. Remember to thank the tree because by hugging your
tree you are drinking from the well of natural copious energy cultivated by
the tree's many years on this earth.
