InnerSelf's Daily Inspiration
March 5, 2024
The focus for today is:
I bring into my body the energy and vibration of the earth.
Today's inspiration was written by Cheryl Pallant, PhD:
Try This: You can do this either standing or seated.
Place your feet firmly on the floor. Imagine that a window at the arches of the feet opens. What comes in is earthly energy, the planet’s vibration, its breath. Exiting the window is an exhalation of energy no longer personally needed.
If it helps, imagine the exchange with color. Make any small adjustment like spreading toes or elongating the spine to amplify the process. Keep your awareness on the soles of your feet. Notice what you notice.

This is Marie T. Russell, co-publisher of InnerSelf.com, wishing you a day of connecting to earth energy (today and every day)
Comment from Marie: I personally love being barefoot and I do not even own a pair of high-heels. I love to have my feet flat on the ground. I go out in the garden barefoot -- in the morning absorbing the morning dew through the bottom of my feet, later on in the day enjoying the feel of the earth and the plants on the walkways in the garden. I find it "recharges my batteries".
Our focus for today: I bring into my body the energy and vibration of the earth.

Ecosomatics: Embodiment Practices for a World in Search of Healing
by Cheryl Pallant
In this practical guide, Cheryl Pallant explains how ecosomatics—embodiment work for personal and planetary health—can help us shift our consciousness through expanded listening with all our senses and embracing the interconnections between our inner and outer worlds. Throughout the book, the author offers ecosomatic and embodiment exercises to help you expand perception, develop somatic intelligence, let go of limiting beliefs, lessen fear, anxiety, and alienation, and open to levels of awareness that allow you to tune in to a greater vision of what is humanly possible.
Revealing how to incorporate embodiment into everyday life, this guide shows how the body is a process that is part of nature, not separate from it, and that by embarking on the transformative inner journey, we can bring healing to the world around us.
