On Earth Day - how to move into a mindset of joy about saving our planet

“You carry Mother Earth within you.  She is not outside of you.”  -Tich Nhat Hanh

I was recently asked to do a workshop on Earth Day at Bellworks in Homdel, New Jersey.

So as a life and transformation coach I wasn’t sure at first what exactly I would do.  They seemed a little unrelated in my mind.

Then I thought about how being kind to our planet takes mindfulness.  Just recycling alone takes a moment of consideration.  It has become habit for many of us, but still sometimes I get a bit more lazy then I care to admit and have to think about it.

However, what really got me thinking was how does positivity, consciousness and our spiritual connection help with healing Mother Earth?

I realize that energy connects all.  In fact everything is energy and constantly in motion.  Our thoughts are energy.  They emanate from us into our surroundings and effect everything.

When we move into more positive thoughts, when we think less about the problems of our planet and appreciate more about what is going right, we move into the energy of greater solution.

When we tend to our own energy, our own alignment, joy and love, we emanate that energy to all that surrounds us.

When we foster love for ourselves, within ourselves and towards others we create energy for Mother Earth. With our own personal healing,  we begin to heal the planet.

That is something each one of us can do today.
