ONE WAY TO MAKE A TREE PORTAL

STEP 1. CHOOSE A TREE

IDEALLY CLOSE ENOUGH TO GET TO DAILY.

STEP 2. CREATE THE PORTAL: CIRCLE THE TREE IN STONES

LEAVE PLENTY OF ROOM INSIDE THE CIRCLE TO SIT, BE AND MAYBE EVEN DANCE!

STEP 3. HONOR: BOW TO ALL 4 DIRECTIONS EAST/SOUTH/WEST/NORTH

WELCOME IN ENERGY FROM ALL DIRECTIONS AND ACKNOWLEDGE YOUR WHOLENESS AS YOU ARE.

STEP 4. TETHER: INTRODUCE YOURSELF TO THE TREE

HIGH FIVE HER, TOUCH YOUR FOREHEAD TO HER, HUG HER. TRUST YOURSELF TO KNOW WHAT’S RIGHT FOR YOU BOTH.

STEP 5. GROUND: LOSE THE SHOES

GET BAREFOOT, PLANT YOUR FEET, IMAGINE THEM CONNECTED TO THE THE TREES ROOTS, TO THE EARTH’S CORE WHILE YOUR HEAD CONNECTS TO THE HEAVENS, THE SUN, MOON, STARS AND BEYOND INTO THE COSMOS. BREATHE!!

EXTRA CREDIT: ADORN YOUR PORTAL WITH BEAUTY. ADD PINECONES, STICKS, ROCKS AND OTHER NATURAL GIFTS. CREATE AN ALTAR, WORRY WELL OR A GOD BOX .

STEP 6. USE AND TENDING: LOVING CARE FOR YOUR TREE PORTAL

VISIT HER DAILY. SIT WITH YOUR BACK UP AGAINST YOUR TREE AND FIRST LET GO. SURRENDER ALL THAT YOU NEED TO. FEEL IT RELEASE INTO THE ROOTS AND FILTER INTO THE EARTH.

THEN MEDITATE, BREATHE, LISTEN, CHANT, SING, CRY, RAGE, PLAY MUSIC YOU LOVE, PRAY, DANCE, SURRENDER.

IMAGINE HOW RESOURCEFUL YOU ARE.

REMEMBER YOU ARE NOT ALONE.

CONSIDER OTHER WOMEN AROUND THE WORLD WHO COULD BENEFIT FROM SOME OF WHAT YOU HAVE TODAY?

ENVISION YOURSELF SITTING WITH WOMEN WHO ARE ALSO SITTING WITH TREES.

SEND YOUR ENERGY AND RESOURCES THROUGH THE PORTAL TO THEM: YOUR TIME, YOUR INTELLECT, YOUR PHYSICAL SAFETY, YOUR PATIENCE.

ASK FOR WHAT YOU NEED. LISTEN. RECEIVE.

THANK THE TREE.
