An Máthair Talún (the Mother of the Earth), guide me now as I journey inward to heal and restore my spirit. Let your eternal wisdom flow through me as the rivers that carve the ancient stones, reshaping them with love and patience.

Take a moment to settle yourself, breathing deeply and evenly. Imagine the air you draw in is a golden light, warm and nurturing, filling your lungs with life and energy. As you exhale, release any tension or doubts, letting them flow away like leaves carried by a stream.

Call upon An Máthair Talún. Visualize her as a towering presence of endless compassion, her hair the branches of great oaks and her eyes the endless depths of the sea. Feel her steady presence beneath you, the ground that holds you up, the soil that nurtures all life.

Affirmation:

Is mise an toradh a d'fhás as an talamh bheannaithe.

(I am the fruit that grew from the blessed earth.)

Repeat this to yourself, slowly and with intention, until the words become as natural as your breath. With each repetition, feel a deeper connection to the earth below and the sky above. Know that your body, mind, and spirit are as sacred and worthy as any mountain, river, or tree.

Place your hands over your heart. Let your palms feel the rhythm of your life—the beating drum of your existence. Whisper to yourself:

“Here I am, whole even in my transformation. Just as the seedling grows towards the sun, I am becoming. My changes are not weaknesses; they are sacred evolutions.”

Visualization Exercise:

Close your eyes and imagine yourself in a grove of ancient trees. The air is fragrant with moss and flowers, and the sunlight dances through the leaves. In the center of this grove stands a single tree that reflects your essence—its shape, its scars, its strength, and its beauty.

See yourself approach this tree. With every step, feel the earth beneath you—solid, forgiving, eternal. Place your hands upon its bark and feel the energy pulsing within. It mirrors your own energy, deeply rooted but reaching upward, always growing.

An Máthair Talún whispers through the rustling leaves:

“Lean into my strength, child of the earth. You are never alone. Every root, every stone, every breath of wind supports you. Heal in my embrace.”

Let her words fill you. Imagine your struggles and pain absorbed by the tree, traveling down into the earth where they will be transformed into new life.

Closing:

When you are ready, open your eyes. Place both hands on the ground if you can, thanking An Máthair Talún for her guidance. Whisper aloud or in your heart:

Go raibh mo chorp agus m’anam i gcomhchuibhí le fírinne na talún.

(May my body and soul be in harmony with the truth of the earth.)

Stand tall, carry the peace of this moment with you, and know that healing is your birthright, as natural and unstoppable as the changing seasons.
