Land Consciousness

Returning with Rebecca Campbell - A podcast by Rebecca Campbell

In today’s episode, we’re exploring land consciousness: seeing all parts of the earth as sacred and conscious. Taking our place as reverent custodians and protectors of the lands upon which we live.   When I talk about ‘Land Consciousness’ – I’m talking about all parts of the land, stones, plants, trees, rivers, flowers etc – but also its ancestors: its keepers, its custodians, its traditions, its intelligence, its memories, its spiritual essence. It’s about seeing the alive-ness of the earth and land around us.   I’m going to be sharing with you a personal story of how a discovery at my front door brought me to my knees as I realised how profoundly the land we live on provides for us, if we just open our eyes to truly see it. This moment changed so much for me and how I navigate my way through this life, no matter what land I’m on.   “Land consciousness is the belief that all land holds memory and experiences, that the land is a living thing.“ - Rebecca Campbell   Key Timestamps: 00:30 - What I mean when I talk about “Land Consciousness” 03:40 - Opening Sacred Space. 04:50 - The severing of our connection to the earth. 06:05 - What happens when you consciously connect with the earth? 06:50 - Lands ability to hold memory and experience. 08:20 - attuning to the consciousness of the land. 08:50 - The practice of “being walked by the land” with nomadic ancestors. 11:55 - Soul inquiry   SOUL INQUIRY Soul Inquiry is a practice where we enter a direct dialogue with our inner self. I like to write my answers as I find I receive more deeply that way, but feel free to do what works for you.   The Soul Inquiry prompt for this episode is: How can you tend to your relationship with the land upon which you live?   Now it's time to commit to a grounded action: What is a baby step you can take in that direction to integrate it into your life today?   MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE Full Episode Transcript - https://rebeccacampbell.s3.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/EP.+10+LAND++CONSCIOUSNESS.pdf Intuitive Nature Walking Practice - https://rebeccacampbell.me/practice/ Discover Your Spiritual Practice with Rebecca Campbell - https://rebeccacampbell.me/practice/ The Inner Temple Mystery School - https://rebeccacampbell.me/mysteryschool   Connect with Rebecca: Website - https://rebeccacampbell.me/practice/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/rebeccacampbell_author/ Facebook - https://web.facebook.com/rebeccacampbellauthor YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/RebeccaCampbell
