ONE Members are invited to a
special online gathering
“Rooted in Connection: Honoring the Wisdom of Forests”
Rooted in Connection: Honoring the Wisdom of Forests
Following the Forest Gratitude Ceremony, we invite you to gather with us in deep communion with the Forests—the ancient and steadfast guardians of life. The Forest is not merely a collection of trees; it is a living, breathing community, where roots intertwine beneath the soil, mycelial networks whisper messages of support, and canopies shelter countless beings in their embrace.
To step into a Forest is to enter an ongoing conversation of reciprocity. Trees stand as sentinels of time, their rings recording stories of changing seasons, their presence reminding us of patience, endurance, and interconnection. In honoring them, we honor the web of life that holds us all.
Guided Reflection & Sharing
We will begin with a brief meditation, imagining ourselves as part of the forest—our roots stretching deep into the Earth’s nourishing layers, our spirits swaying in rhythm with the breath of the wind. From this grounded space, we will open the circle for reflection:
How did the Forest Gratitude Ceremony touch you?
What wisdom have you received from the trees and forests in your life?
How can we deepen our kinship with the Forests, fostering a relationship of care and reciprocity?
Forest Offering: Rooting in Care
To close, we will share a simple practice of reciprocity with the Forests—a gesture of care to honor and give back to these sacred landscapes. Whether it is tending to a forest path, planting a tree, removing debris, or simply sitting in quiet reverence among the trees, let us carry the spirit of this gathering into the world.
"I am grateful for the Forests, whose roots weave the fabric of life, whose presence nurtures breath and balance, and whose wisdom reminds me that I, too, belong to this living world."
Meetups are a place for community discussion and connection. Members will receive a Zoom link for the meet-up via email and can also find the link in our dedicated member space on Mighty Networks. Not yet a Member? Join us!
