Physical Setting & Preparation

Find a place where you can sense the abundance of late spring—perhaps near flowering bushes or trees, or where wild grasses grow tall and seed heads are beginning to form. If possible, position yourself where you can hear birdsong and feel gentle breezes against your skin. Bring a small vessel of water and a pinch of soil to represent the elements. Sit or stand with your spine aligned but not rigid, feeling both rooted through your lower body and open through your upper body. Remove shoes to allow direct contact with the earth. Begin by placing your hands palm-down on the earth beside you, then slowly turning them palm-up on your thighs or knees, symbolizing your readiness to both receive and offer.
