		<description>I learned (learnt??) this grounding meditation years ago from one of my pagan friends and loved it right off the bat....because the image of the tree rooted to MOther Earth is a powerful image to me...

Other alternatives that I&#039;ve read and created ~  Your arms outstretched to the sky, to pull down the sun/moon energy to you.
~ you don&#039;t have to be standing to do this...I often visualized my &quot;roots&quot; extending over the ledge of the bathtub as I lay there...and it was just as powerful.  I began to visulalize my roots connecting to Her whenever or wherever I needed to....

And finally, on one such meditation journey, my lilac tree and the maple in my  neighbors yard joined me in my swirly dance downward...and it was so beautiful to experience their own playful energy as well...

Thank you Carolyn for posting this...grounding is so important!

Peace in,
Lil

&lt;strong&gt;What wonderful images!  I really loved the bathtub one, especially -- the bath is my favorite meditation place...  thank you so much!&lt;/strong&gt;</description>

		<description>Yes, I too have felt the strength from trees, and have visualized the circle of energy too! Isn&#039;t that amazing, that we both found it independently? My circle of energy feels like a brightly colored fizzy-feeling circle!

&lt;strong&gt;What a great description of your tree energy!&lt;/strong&gt;</description>

		<description>As a huge tree lover, I loved this post.  I always feel more &quot;sane&quot; when I spend some time in nature - especially when I spend time admiring the trees around me.

Thanks for the reminder.</description>
