Earth, Sea, Sky Meditation

If you’re anything like me, you know the frustration of trying to transition into a trance state, or making it across the hedge.  As someone who deals with a lot of stress and anxiety, it’s extremely difficult to get my mind to shut up and focus.  On one particularly stressful day, I came up with this great way of focusing on breathing within a Celtic/Gaelic worldview (because I grew frustrated that all of the breathing/focusing exercises I came across were from Buddhist or new age practices). As many of us know, the trinity of land, sea, and sky is important in Gaelic tradition, so these are the three elements or realms that I used to create focus and relax the mind and body.

This meditation is unusual because it starts on an exhale.  Take a deep breath, get into a comfortable position and begin:

Exhale: Feel your body sink into the earth and become grounded Inhale: Feel the sea fill your body, let it swell up within you Hold: Feel the sky lift you, you become weightless (Repeat)

You can do these breaths in counts of 3, or 4, or whatever you feel comfortable with.  As in: “Exhale… 2… 3… 4… Inhale… 2… 3… 4… Hold… 2… 3… 4… Exhale….” and so on.  The words above are simply a guide to how to make your body feel as you breathe, you may give yourself mental instruction like this, or just let your body feel each realm.  I usually recommend starting out with mental instruction and slowly weaning yourself off of it until you’re just relying on feeling.  This is a good way to slowly ease yourself away from daily consciousness and into a trance-like state.

As mentioned above, this is meant to be used as a transition, and not a full meditation in itself.  Once you feel yourself relax and slip into the right form of consciousness, you may begin your journey/spirit/deity work or whatever you are doing.  Or, like me, you can use it as a calming technique for those anxiety filled stressful moments.
