I love to get my shoes off and feel the Earth’s energy under my feet. Letting the vibrations travel through me, steading and grounding me. However, I have also felt the pain of the Earth as she tries to deal with our lack of care for her.

I was like so many people once. I didn’t understand the Earth’s connection to us. Nor mine to her. I went about my life the same as most other people ignoring the ways in which the Earth was being trashed. She is an abundant planet. There is enough for every person to live well if only it was equally distributed. And we took the time to use only what was necessary. Rather than dig into the Earth’s resources and spend them in such wasteful ways. However, as my intuitive connections grew I learned that the Earth has feelings too. And a consciousness. It became clear that we were meant to live in harmony together.

Last year I experienced the pain of the Earth’s reactions to the energy we are busy surrounding her with. It was indescribable. I know that her heart ache is reflected in all of the shifting patterns of weather, oceans, earthquakes and volcanoes. But I also know that most people still aren’t listening. Our desire for more and more, alongside the built in redundancy of our things, pushes an unending demand for raw materials. But it hurts my planet. She needs time and space to heal. I know that we have to help her. Firstly by asking questions of all those who want to exploit more of the Earth’s bounty. Secondly by paying attention to what we consume. And finally, by learning what we have forgotten. How to tune into her pain.

I know that if we could all feel that pain we would stop in an instant. It’s so sad to me that we have broken our intuitive link between the Earth’s energy and our own. It means I and a few others experience her pain. But most people don’t. You can help. You can change this situation. Take off your shoes, stand on the grass and ask to feel the Earth’s energy. Then help us change humanity’s attitude to the Earth we live with and on.
