Oke. Confession time. About trees. How I envy them! Especially this time of year. Fall. Ah, just this word: fall. Fall, drop, flow, let go. To have your feet firmly planted in the earth and then gently and elegantly let go of thoughts that are painful, upsetting, stressfull. Just let them blow in the wind. Deadlines approaching...whoosh. Unfulfilled needs...drop. Heartache...release. Mindchatter...let go.

Such a beautiful day yesterday. I lie on my back in the grass. Looking up at the trees above me. Leaves are gently, gently drifting down. Some touch my face, my hand, my belly. But especially my heart. I focus on my breathing, feel my heartchakra opening up, taking everything in.

Fall is the perfect time for change. To withdraw into yourself and take a good look at your heart. To look for the place that makes you warm enough to get you comfy through the winter. The place that connects you with the ever flowing sea of energy that is there, all the time. Comforting, strenghtening, providing. Be still, that's all you need to do to connect to this vast ocean. To be still and grounded. Like a tree.
