Self-Guided Plant Meditation



For this exercise all you need is yourself and one plant. It can be a house plant or a plant outside (trees are included, yes!)


Go to the plant, bow your head in acknowledgement to this being. Perhaps you kneel down to touch the earth or put your hands in the soil in the pot your plant lives. Thank the wondrous, magical alchemy that is dirt, that is earth, that is soil. Reflecting on how in the english language, dirt and soil are often used to express something that is ruined, think about how your body reacts to the soil + let that be what navigates your heart in this exercise. We come from and go back to this earth. We are nourished, endlessly, by this earth.


Now, with the plant or tree ask it either verbally or telepathically if you may sit or stand with it. It is nice to give an offering too, perhaps some honey. Ask if you may touch it gently. Sing to it, dance with it. It is proven that plants react to the vibration of our voice, song and rhythm. If we give good energy to the plants, they feel it and grow stronger. Take some time to be still with the plant too. Be totally quiet. Observe with your eyes. Close your eyes and observe with your heart. Be open to what this plantcestor wants to teach you. You may see visions in your minds eye. You may see particular colors or shapes. Perhaps an ancestor or spirit guide with visit you. Sit with the plant for at least 10 minutes. Thank the earth and the plantcestor + have a lovely day.
