This can become quite involved. You may start by visualizing a walk in the forest, working with all senses, smell, hearing, taste, touch as well as sight.You can either visualize becoming a tree or entering a tree that already exists in the forest. Note that you should ask the trees permission first!
5. Send roots into the earth from feet.
Send the roots down into the earth, down farther and farther into the earth. (Trance induction--as you go further down in the ground, you may add that you are going into deeper meditation.)
