I started meditating five years ago, beginning with free guided meditations and mindful colouring books. I probably wasn't the only one turning to these strategies in 2020. Over time, my meditation practice evolved. I needed less direction and could simply be present in my bedroom or outside. Eventually, I started recording and sharing my own guided meditations. Now, my journey with meditation is expanding again. Not only am I hosting regular guided meditation groups, but I am exploring how meditation and mindfulness can help foster community connection.
The earth element teaches us important lessons about living in connection and relationship with not just our environments and the people around us, but also with ourselves.
As an element, the earth is a powerful ally for growth, sustainability, and practical change. However, working with the earth requires accountability because we will see the effects of our actions on the world around us. This article will explore how we can connect to the earth element meaningfully and how a relationship with this element can create powerful change.
