Healing and Grounding Through Tree Connection
Many people are unaware of the silent healers all around us such as tree energy, grounding, profound and unseen communication is available to us through nature!
Most people in ignorance or even out of disbelief will laugh if you make any reference to hugging a tree to heal or to make yourself feel better.
There are many people that know and there are people that don’t know!
Everything that lives is a living being, a living entity with a life force running through it and that includes trees.
Within the darkness or shade of an oak tree standing alone there exists a profound wisdom that goes beyond your logical analytical intellect, that intellect you use to analyse and discriminate and prejudice things that you cannot understand or see, therefore you cannot accept and laugh or dismiss it away as nonsense.
Psychology explanations or analysis does this really well but it is not always right especially when there is that it cannot see.
Trees are powerful conscious beings rooted in the intelligence and the magnetic energy of the plane they grow from and nothing separates the trees from the entire planet which is an electromagnetic field of deep intelligence you can access.
Tree energy is very supple almost non-existent, invisible yet immensely powerful at the same time. When we slow down or pause just to touch them, to place our hands on the side of an oak tree on its bark, we ground ourselves in the presence and something powerful and extraordinary can happen to those who are open to receive it, and that is we begin to remember who we really are as we’ve all been born into amnesia!
The living presence of trees
Science now confirms what mystics and spiritual people from many cultures have long known, that trees are sentient beings in their own right.
They certainly communicate with each other through underground networks called the wood-wide web.
All trees equally share nutrients and warn other surrounding trees of intrusions or threats such as animals and support each other. This is not a survival instinct or a built-in self-preservation protection alone, sort of like fight or flight, no it’s a community or a kinship or a compassion expressed on another level such as in a vegetal form.
Trees around the world in woods and forests do much more than relate to each other, they actually interact with us but most people are too switched off or not aligned to notice. We often miss it because their language is not in human words, it’s in frequency or presence, it’s a vibrational energy and if you are in tune with energies which many are not then you will feel it, some call this imaginary or fictitious or even delusional.
If you’re in touch with life’s supple energies in and around your own body and can pick up energy shifts in other people then you will know that trees are alive with vibrational frequency. All trees resonate with the frequency that parallels the Schumann resonance of the Earth, Mother Kai, a kind of ‘Planetary Heartbeat’.
When you approach a tree such as a lone oak and you approach it with an open heart with feelings of compassion, mindfulness and love and a willingness to receive knowledge from that tree then you will receive it and as you approach with an inner stillness and a sincerity, you must be sincere and authentic, then your own biofield begins to align or attune to that frequency or in other words the tree will alter your frequency to bring you in line with it.
The results are a subtle and powerful harmonisation of your mind and body and spirit sense or energy awareness.
If a person is unaware of energy in and around their own body then walking to a tree you may feel nothing, if anything may be a sense of grounding but most people will feel nothing because you have to be in tune with your own bodies electrical and magnetic responsive energy fields and many people are not.
The human heart is more than just a pump as it emits an electromagnetic field that is actually scientifically measurable several feet from outside the human body.
When we touch a tree with the palms of our open hands or even come into its energetic field or energetic proximity there is a fusion or a nonverbal language, dialogue of energy frequencies that exchanges.
Those people that know how energy works and can feel it, report feelings of calm emotional release, an increase in insight when sitting against or touching trees which is not a coincidence but is a measurable fact.
All around the universe, the cosmos, trees are natural transducers of cosmic and earth energy. The tree roots pull grounding energy from the earth’s core which is magnetic and at the same time the tree branches span into the sky receiving celestial light or pranic energy.
Tree branches are living antennas grounding and anchoring the spiritual into the material world. When we humans connect or align with a tree and its energy we actually enter into an electromagnetic field of coherence. You could say it’s like plugging a chaotic human’s energy or waveform into a finely tuned tuning fork of natural balance or harmony. The trees are more balanced and harmonious energy wise than we are!
The practice of grounding!
The practise of grounding which is also known as earthing requires direct contact with the Earth’s surface with bare feet which will allow your body to absorb free electrons from the soil or the ground where you are standing.
The electrons act as natural antioxidants and it is said can reduce inflammation and balance electrical energy or charges in the body. Making contact with trees with your bare hands or sitting at the base of an oak with your bare spine pressed against the bark amplifies the effect of receiving electrons and grounding beyond any other method known to mankind.
The tree roots are actually like highways carrying energy from one place to another drawing off energy and nourishments including electromagnetic balance from deep within the earth.
When you make your contact with a tree with your bare skin you are interfacing and interacting with a bioelectrical network far older than humanity and far more real than science knows.
The benefits of grounding by making contact with a tree will calm your nervous system down and helps to reset circadian rhythms.
There are definite physical benefits from grounding through your feet by placing bare feet on the soil and your skin against the tree and that the whole experience reconnects you with the deep primal intelligence of Gaia, Mother Kai or Earth!
Trees are a living breathing consciousness and if you ask, they will transfer or download cosmic codes into your energy field also known as quantum codes, quantum information.
Healing through trees
Healing through trees is not metaphorical it’s actually literal and although it affects our very supple being, they can help to heal.
The tree does not diagnose or judge you but it holds a space and, in that space, your emotional tension or knots can be loosened and your inner chatter or chaos, nervous tension, anxiety can quieten and deeper truths within you will rise!
Stand barefoot and bare topped in front of a tree and place your forehead and hands on its trunk, close your eyes and start to breathe deeply and become aware of the quiet pulse beneath your palms and just listen to what sound you can hear and what feelings you can feel.
You will experience a tingling in your hands and some people who have pent up energy may start to cry which is also known as an abreaction. You may feel warmth or a tingling through your body or a sudden lifting of happiness in your thoughts.
Trees can reflect our inner state and they are a natural biofeedback system and they do so without a logical thinking mind or an ego or an intellect like ours.
Trees have their own intelligence operating on a different level to ours and those that get in tune or align with their energies will know this and the more time you spend making contact with a tree and grounding through your feet around the tree, the more its energy begins to enter to help re-pattern your own state in your own space.
How the trees communicate with us?
Trees do not communicate with us using words, they do so in symbols, feelings, sensations, intuition or dreams. A tree may respond to your hand touch with a wave of calm or a move something in your emotions. It may place an image in your mind or stir an image in you, some sensitive and in tune people often feel a presence like a guiding spirit.
This is not fantasy or delusional as some may think, this is what’s called resonance!
When our hearts are open and our minds are quietened trees exist in multiple dimensions of being at the same time. They are here in this space and deeply connected to the spiritual web of the earth.
Druids, shamans and sages throughout history have revered trees as doorways or bridges between worlds. Trees are sacred thresholds or portals!
Trees speak to us because we are part of them, nothing separates us from the trees only duality or a belief that everything is separate which it is not. Even the space between us and the trees is filled with activity and energy.
We are not separate from the trees, our lungs and our breathing is completely dependent on the trees. Our lungs have a very intimate relationship with trees; without the trees we wouldn’t be able to breathe.
The more we connect with the trees on a daily basis the more we rediscover that grounded or aligned space from which all healing begins.
