Experience the stone in relationship to the heart of Gaia

• You are standing in front of a stone.
• Hold your hands at the level of your elemental heart (at the lower tip of the sternum) with the palms facing upwards horizontally in front of you.
• Bring your hands a little forward and imagine that you are now holding your hands underneath the stone.
• In your imagination, lift the stone a little.
• Once you have lifted the stone, you can experience its relationship to the Earth’s core or explore its inner life.
• Then replace the stone on the ground and draw the hands back towards the body.

This exercise, especially with heavy stones or rocks, is best done in a group standing around the stone. One person should give the signal with the word “Now” so that everyone can start the action at the same time. A similar signal should be given when the rock needs to be returned to its place on the ground. Afterwards, you can share your experiences.
