Summer Birdsong

 Bird-watching is a healing activity simply because it takes you into nature. When you truly focus on seeing and hearing the birds, though, you elevate it to one of the most enlightening meditations you can perform.

Birdsong is the most sacred form of music; birds sing the songs of the angels and the heavens. Birdsong mends a fractured soul and can reverse disease. This is because the frequency of these melodies resonates deep within our DNA, which allows it to reconstruct the body on a cell level. If you listen to the birds with respect and appreciation and don’t take them for granted, there’s no doubt that your life will start to transform.

Observing birds is powerful, too. Here on earth, our souls can become caged up and our spirits suppressed. When we witness birds’ freedom in flight “it ignites and unleashes the spirit and breaks the cage of the soul. Further, a bird lands only on an area it deems safe—and has the ability to flutter off if that spot doesn’t work out. When we pay attention to the way a bird alights on a branch or the ground, it activates our own healing and promotes a sense of safety within our souls.

If it’s healing you’re seeking, enlightenment, connection to the Divine, spirituality, wisdom, compassion, knowledge, and understanding of your greater purpose, then seek not the owl. Seek the hummingbird. Admire the owl as a blessed and beautiful creature, yet take your cue from the hummingbird, which flies by day and feeds off the nectar of the earth’s flowers, pollinating as it goes. This is the most spiritual form of eating and shows the greatest wisdom. In order to heal, it’s critical not to sleep by day as the owl does, and to instead follow the hummingbird’s teaching and sleep by night (with short naps in the day as needed).
