I feel so nurtured by the sun.  And I love nothing more than to feel the tension in my muscles drain, my mood lift, and my stress levels fall when I go outside and rest on the earth.  

Have you ever felt the complete surrender of being totally docked on our planet, so relaxed that you drift in and out of sleep?  I highly recommend it. Resting, eyes closed, recently I went outside in the afternoon, closed my eyes for what felt like just a few minutes, and when I reopened them it was turning dusk.  I had never felt so at peace.

How long had I been resting and restoring my body through grounding?  

I watched the last of the sun's rays blazing gloriously through the leaves of the trees around me and I thought to myself -- why do I not do this every single day? 

I decided to paint this experience, to remind myself to just walk straight out that door and touch the earth if I am feeling stressed out, hurried, overwhelmed, anxious, or just disconnected from my body in any way.

To reconnect, it's as simple as docking yourself to the earth and letting go.

If you could use a reminder too, I would love to send this painting to you.  Perfect in an office to give you an instant sense of calm, in a bedroom to relax you as you wind down, or really anywhere that you could use a visual reminder to head outside daily.

This canvas is 24" x 36" gallery stretched and painted with acrylics by me (Dr. Laura Koniver) and is one of a kind, signed by me, and won't be made into prints.  The experience was too magical to just copy in reproductions!  Watermark does not appear on the painting.

xoxo, Laura
