Nature Meditation Ritual

Gather a stone of your choice (or a handful of clean soil), a leaf, a feather, container of water, and a candle. Light the candle and place it in front of you. Touch each item mindfully and consider how each represent each element. Hold the stone or leaf in your hands, dip your fingers in the water, stroke the feather, gaze upon the flam. Consider how each is vital to life while chanting:

"Field, flower, tree, and stone;
Build the Earth that I call Home.
Changing wind, air to breathe,
Precious atmosphere and breeze.
Candle flame, fire bright,
Warmth and heat,
Radiant light.
Drink of life in flow or freeze,
Rain and River, spring, and sea."
