The word “spirit” derives from the word “breath,” (spiritus in Latin). Literally breath gives life. Figuratively, the word “spiritual” connotes whatever is of central and ultimate importance in all aspects of one’s life. It is at the core of one’s physical nature, psychological awareness, social relations and connectedness to one’s world. It is what gives us life.
The spiritual dimension of one’s life is very particular and unique to each person’s experience, yet it is universally present in all humans everywhere.
We might feel “de-spirited” and we need to be” in-spired” again. We need to figuratively “take a deep breath” and remember who we are in the core of our being.
You’ll never know if you’re going to get another breath after the last one you just took. We take it for granted, but we start life on the inhale, we end life on the exhale, and many times the next breath is the last one you get.
The breath opens our hearts, heightens our consciousness and dissolves the separation between humans and nature, bringing us into a deeper relationship with ourselves and Mother Earth.
When we open the heart, we can connect back to our truth, our truth of oneness and interconnectedness. Residing in this space, we can become more receptive and in tune with the energetic and natural world. As we anchor in the heart, we can both see and feel the essence and gifts of the trees, allowing us to embrace the magic of ourselves and our world through a lens of compassion and understanding. Through this, we can return to wholeness, to unity consciousness, to oneness.
We are Nature and Nature is Us
Nature not only surrounds us, but it is within us, nurturing us and offering healing.
Interconnected through the breath, the trees deserve our presence, gratitude and respect.
