I have a friend that I would like to introduce to you, his name is Holly.
Holly is an Oak Tree that has been living in God Mother Earth, The Planet Of Peace for 169 years. Holly and I met ten years ago and soon Holly became my favorite energy healing place; to give Holly a hug, to meditate and day dream and to eat my picnic lunch along with Joy, our Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. :)
I learned how to climb unto trees when I was 3 years old. I loved it because for some reason to rest in the arms of a tree gave me so much peace and allowed me to connect with my formless self. When I was a child I used to dream of having a tree house and I thought that it was a place where I could be myself, a being not judged living closer to the sky among trees.

I moved Holly to a National Park because I wasn't able to keep him with me when I moved to a new home. I miss him a lot but when Joy and I have time we come over to visit Holly and have our picnics together.
1. Some people has asked me; how do you talk to trees? Well, I just do, even when I am not present or next to them. Time and place reality are only illusions in the matters of the heart. :) In preparation to talk with Holly and other plants, first I take a few slow but long relaxing breaths to bring myself back home so to speak, meaning, focus my attention to my whole being away from all other thoughts and distractions. I take four deep breaths and feel all parts of my body getting calm. 2. When I visit Holly I don't wear shoes or jewelry and when I feel ready and calm I give Holly a huge hug and ask him for permission to climb up to him and to open our hearts for a talk. Then I hear in my center (my heart), not my mind, I hear a voice that says, welcome dear one and Holly giggles... yes, Holly giggles a lot.
I have played different kinds of music to Holly and he has narrowed them to a couple of favorite songs and the rest are instrumental melodies. But I have found that music helps us connect at other levels. We both listen to the music and between notes we listen to one another. :)
By the way, I want to make sure that the readers understand that when I say "conversations" with Holly, it doesn't mean that Holly speak English... rather the heart has a capacity to translate the waves of our heart into information that our brain can perceive and recognize. All living beings are in constant communication with all other beings and each person perceives those waves with our heart. And, yes, all living beings like the ocean, stars, dogs and Spiritual Humans speak and communicate from their hearts.

... to be continue :)
The most wonder-full Divine Travels can be experienced when we allow ourselves to go beyond our own self-imposed limitations. :)
Do you communicate with other beings? Do you talk with trees? Do you keep a journal of your Divine Travels? How do you empower your dreams? The Environment is our extended body; how do you acknowledge this spiritual integration?
I love you, I do.
