i love the summation of "Start with what's on your heart and let the Earth speak back to you." Slowing down to let your heart speak to the heart of the tree, the rock, the Earth as Mother. Each with such a different heartbeat. A boulder might be once in a thousand years...a tree maybe once a year. In any case, very different heart beats than ours, but still a rhythm.

Slowing down enough to listen and hopefully our rhythms can be in harmony

I’m happy to hear there’s another human with the capacity to connect with the silent speech of trees.

WOW!

I thought I was the ONLY one who spoke to trees!

I have conversations all the time with my local crew, and just assumed I was a closet member of the “Weird” crew 🫡

Thank you for your consideration and confirmation ⭐️🐦‍⬛⭐️

when i started my spiritual journey, there was a specific tree in my hometown’s park that i’d go to sit, talk, cry, & pray. the reciprocal relationship with trees reminds me of the reciprocal relationship we must have with our ancestors. i really resonate with this!

It’s all reciprocity. Love that you have that relationship 🤍

This is great. I can be called to trees when in nature; this piece helps me understand a little more why.

My fave thing in hot summer is to sit under a tree in the shade- the best feeling.

Stumbling upon this article is truly serendipitous. I've been thinking about and interacting with trees a lot more lately... So glad the Universe sent this article my way. 🌳💚
