Gravity is a Healer - a guided meditation
Dear Friends,
I learned several years ago that, as Warren Grossman, author of To Be Healed By The Earth wrote, "lying on the ground is an antidote to anxiety." Lying directly on the ground is the most powerful. But tuning into and releasing into gravity when we are indoors, on a chair, on our beds, or standing, is also very calming, restorative and healing. As you surrender, it's also very opening to keep aware of the space above, below, before and behind you, as well as your inner space. Then there is a balance in our awareness of form, the weight of the body on the earth, and the formless realm at the source.
If you have any big feelings coming through, and most of us do, or if you just feel tired out from all the news and tremendous changes, and most of us are, I hope listening to the guided meditation recording above will support you in letting yourself pause, surrender to gravity, and meet your feelings directly as they move through. And perhaps you'll get a chance to go out to your yard, or a park, or the beach, spreading out a sheet or blanket and just letting Earth do her healing thing. In that situation you really don't even have to focus so much on surrendering. It just happens. Love, Kathleen
P.S. And please find a way to lie down or sit that is comfortable for you. Here are some ways to surrender to gravity while keeping aware of the big space. And remember, you can also do this driving in your car, or walking down the road! Gravity goes with you wherever you are.

Sweet gravity holds me dearly
Anchoring me to my home earth
Guiding me deep into dreams
Sweet gravity take me down
Take me in
Take me home
I turn myself over to the
safety of your embrace
As you love me, I love you
Anchoring me to my home earth
Guiding me deep into dreams
Sweet gravity take me down
Take me in
Take me home
I turn myself over to the
safety of your embrace
As you love me, I love you
