The most powerful living being in this reality is the earth. Its potency is so immense and an integral part of our lives that most forget about its relevance in our lives. The philosophies of our western cultures for most part take its presence for granted. It is their loss as they miss the wonderful secrets that the earth has to offer. Although its powers are often subtle the earth’s energetic source has capacities of unimaginable proportions.

There are activities that you can do to facilitate the earth’s presence into your life. An easy technique is pulling energy from the earth into your body. Visualize a place in the earth. I like to use the core center of the earth or the ground that is directly under my feet. I imagine immense amounts of energy coming from that place up through the earth and into my body. If I am sitting it comes up through my coccyx or perineum. Where I focus my attention the energy goes there.

A favorite place for me is to fill my second chakra with the earth’s energy. This connects to the functions of sexual energy and personal power. I allow it to fill that area to maximum intensity then I move onto other areas of my body. It always feels wonderful to fill my body completely with the earth.

Our bodies are amazing instruments that do a lot of things that we are not currently accessing. The body is a catalyst of energetic transformation, where we put our consciousness we can change it. Therefore we can put our attention into the earth and we then begin to receive its expanded being. Unfortunately most people’s attention is connected to the worry, sadness, stress and/or anger so they bring that into their body instead of something cool like our planet.

The earth is a good place to let go of your anger or sadness into the ground. That kind of emotional energy is like a fertilizer for the earth, it can easily transform into its own kind of power. What you do is sit or lay on the earth and relax into your self. Then begin to relive the story of what happened that made you angry. What you are looking for is the visceral, energetic intensity of the body memory of your anger and its location in your body.

The purpose of reliving the story is to stimulate the experience, once you feel the anger in you stop re-traumatizing yourself with the past experience and just remain focused on the body’s feelings. When you perceive that you are in touch with the physical experience of the suppressed anger imagine the energy releasing out of you and into the earth.

My release usually feels like a stream of emotions that pour out of me. It usually takes a minute or a few for it all to release. But for some deep emotional pains I have spent a few hours releasing. Afterwards I generally feel a huge weight released that allows something more infinite to come into my life.

Cultures across the globe have found ways to emulate the earth’s energy so that they can live in a connection to its consciousness. One technique that I find interesting is the low guttural chants of the Tibetan Monks. According to Greg Braden the purpose of the extreme bass chanting is to create harmony through out earth. If you allow the chant to be felt beyond your ears and actually feel it resonate in your body you will feel a soothing frequency. It is a basic vibration of the earth, as the planet seems to have many. Once you identify the vibration in your body you can duplicate it any time you wish. You will not need the monks to stimulate you. What I have found is that practicing the vibration can create more inner presence, a better connection to the earth and release emotional distress.
