Nature Meditations

I decided to experiment with other meditations, other than chakra meditations. I choose to look for meditations in Nature because a few years ago I listened to a great nature meditation and still remember how much I enjoyed it. Alas, I can’t find it anywhere. So I was really excited to find a number of nature meditations on YouTube. My sister, Valerie and I haven been discussing connecting with our spirit guides and I found this meditation; Guided Shakmanic Journey to the Askashic Field: Connect With Your Spirit Guides by The Honest Guys from the UK. One of the things I like about this meditation is the use of drums. A slow, easy, powerful beat is also very calming and helps me to focus. The speaker takes you to a beautiful old forest to meet with your spirit guides.

Nature Meditations – Through the Eyes of a Squirrel

Another nature meditation I found on YouTube is titled A Guided Meditation to connect with Nature – Mother Earth – Gaia by Dreaming of Avalon Meditations. This meditation is 20 minutes long. I was going to listen for 10 minutes, but was enjoying myself so much, I listened for the whole 20 minutes. The speaker is Scottish or Irish. I enjoy listening to him and find myself really focusing on his voice, so that I won’t miss anything he says. The speaker takes you to a beautiful old forest. During your visit to the forest the speaker says – “you are looking through the eyes of a squirrel at the world around you” which gives a different perspective to this meditation.

I love being out in nature. Taking a walk in the woods, mountains, or in a meadow is so inspiring and peaceful. Whether I am in the red sandstone formations in Utah, the beautiful mountains of Colorado, or listening to the sounds of the surf at the beach, I find these places to be spiritually uplifting, mind renewing, and help to open my creativity.
