This month’s theme is Nourish Your Inner Soil.

Spring is an optimal time for cleansing the body and digestive system. It is also a wonderful time for nourishing your inner soil – that part of you that turns dreams into reality, inspiration into manifestation and where resilience is born.
A sound bath is a wonderful opportunity to clear out old dusty patterns of thinking from the mind; old emotional imprints that keep hanging around and physical tension from the body.

All of this letting go creates space for clarity and heart connection - less about “doing” and more about allowing—the clarity is already within you.

If you are attending this sound bath or watching the recording – come prepared with a nourishing cup of tea, cocoa or broth and a glass of water.
I invite you to join me for the Food for Your Soul Sound Bath.

Entrainment is natural and automatic to the human being. Entrainment is the synchronization to an external rhythm. This response particularly applies to music.

For example, when you walk into a store where there is music playing, it takes only a few minutes for your heartbeat to slow down to try to match the beat of the music. This is an automatic response of the human heart to rhythm in music. You can’t turn this off. It happens even if you’re ignoring the music playing in the store.

A racing mind and a racing heartbeat often go together. When you choose music with a slow beat, the heartbeat will slow down to match it. Since the heartbeat, breathing and brainwave rhythms are all intimately connected, a slower heartbeat will encourage the mind to slow down and become quiet.

Here’s a tip for you. A relaxed heartbeat is around 60 beats a minute. Go to Spotify, YouTube or your favorite music streaming service and type in “60 beats per minute”. You will be given a variety of playlists to choose from. Play this music quietly in the background even while you are doing other things and it will guide your heartbeat and you to a more relaxed state.

So many folks believe that they are separate beings living their lives separate from everything else. The facts about our connection to everything has been emerging for a while. A few years ago, I was so excited to discover the mycelial network, Nature's internet. This is a web of microscopic mushroom fibers that encircles the globe in the soil. Human beings are as connected to this network as solidly as trees are.

Several years ago, in curious wonder, I created the intention to connect with the mycelial network during a meditation. To my surprise, my inner hearing opened up in a cascade of chatter. And in came the booming voice of ""Ivy"", the beautiful blue spruce tree in our front yard. What a gift we have in our connection with nature when we learn how to listen.

In her fascinating book, The Field, Lynn McTaggart describes the results of decades of research on the nature of consciousness and the universe itself. She says: “Consciousness was a global phenomenon that occurred everywhere in the body, and not simply in our brains. Consciousness, at its most basic, was coherent light…the brain is simply the retrieval and read-out mechanism of the ultimate storage medium – The Field.”

She also states: “A substructure underpins the universe that is essentially a recording medium of everything, providing a means for everything to communicate with everything else. People are indivisible from their environment. Living consciousness is not an isolated entity. It increases order in the rest of the world. The consciousness of human beings has incredible powers, to heal ourselves, to heal the world – in a sense, to make it as we wish it to be.”

At the quantum level, there is no longer any doubt that we are all connected. I believe that every one of us has had multiple experiences of this oneness or connection that holds us all. Describe one of your experiences where you felt connected to everything. "

Your heart is a lamp! Puran and Susanna Bair teach Heart Rhythm meditation and have been measuring the effect. Their findings are fascinating:

“The heart also emits energy as visible light (bioluminescence) This light has been scientifically measured on a photon counter in an experiment that showed 100,000 photons per second coming out of the chest of a Heart Rhythm Meditator. The threshold for visibility is about 1,000 photons per second, so the light of the energized heart is easily visible and creates a lamp in the chest."" (from ""Energize your Heart” by Susanna and Puran Bair)

Even a few breaths focusing on breathing in and out of the heart can shift your mental and emotional state, giving the over-worked left brain a break and shining some light on your world.

Reverence, especially for simple things, grows your soul, nourishes your heart and brings harmony to your emotions and well-being to your body.

My mother-in-law, Peggy, came from many generations of champion gardeners. Everything she grew flourished beautifully under her care. When she and my father-in-law moved to Calgary in 2001, she enthusiastically helped us plan our gardens around our home and I became her apprentice gardener.

We would peruse the garden and seed catalogs in January and February like children do over toy catalogs at Christmastime. Narrowing down the flowers we wanted to grow wasn’t easy. To help, we drew maps of the garden spaces and where every group of blooms would go.

Once the seeds came in and our sprouting schedule made, we set up our seed sprouting shelves and lights in the living room. It was a process! When the seedlings in the flats sprouted their second set of leaves, it was time to transplant the baby plants and our kitchen table turned into a garden centre.

“Don’t grab them by their stems!” she would exclaim. “The stems are too fragile. Grab them by their leaves.” Well, to me, this seemed too much like grabbing a child by their ears when they have been misbehaving, like the scene that you might see in very old movies. But I listened, and grabbed each little plant by one of its leaves and tucked it into a new little pot where I had prepared a finger hole just the right size.

It was fascinating watching her transplanting these tiny plants. She would tuck them into their new pot telling them to ‘grow big and strong. You are going to love it here.’ She did that with each little plant. And after a couple of weeks, her plants were twice the size of the same plants that I had transplanted sitting beside her.

Her reverence and joy in caring for these little seedlings was inspiring! Every time she came over, every little seedling was inspected to make sure it had been given just the right amount of water. She would grab a leaf, give it a little pull and watch as the plant bounced back. “Nice and strong!” she would say.

I believe that she was more my model and teacher for reverence than she was for gardening! As I continue to plan and plant, it is the lesson that really stayed with me.

Reverence and appreciation reminds you that everything is sacred.
