Forest Meditation for Grounding and Joy + 13-Minute Meditation

Recorded in ancient woods with birdsong and natural sounds

Friends!

I’m currently teaching a retreat on Cortes Island in BC, at a place called Hollyhock - easily the most gorgeous retreat centre I’ve been to. Towering Douglas firs and ancient cedar trees, bleached oyster shells glittering on the seashore, hawks circling languidly overhead and red salmon berries bursting in the undergrowth. It’s so crazy beautiful that my partner Sarah and I have conclusively decided to spend 10 months out here beginning this September, not quite this far north, but close enough. Nature is healing. Grateful for this land and these old trees.

Today I sat under a large Douglas fir and recorded this tree meditation for you, complete with background birdsong serenade. A meditation dedicated to all wild things, you included.

Much love,

Jeff
