Settle yourself on the ground. Sense Earth's gravitational pull. Close your eyes. Sense your blood pumping as part of all the mineral and fluid cycles of wherever you live. Just as your blood flows through you, water is the Earth's blood. Notice your breathing and observe its natural rhythm. Know that all the oxygen you and all animal beings are breathing in at this moment is a gift of green plants, as they breathe in carbon dioxide given off by you and all animals. Open your eyes and give gratitude to anything among the living green.
As you breathe in air and wind flowing over Earth's body, close your eyes. Notice your muscles as they feel ready to move and they relax more deeply, thanking the Sun for their source of energy. Open your eyes and notice sunlight, which is present even on a cloudy day. Slowly stand up and root your feet into the Earth. Walk slowly around your space, your feet kissing the ground with each step.
Know that everything you see will return to the Earth.
