A Blessing from the Trees
by Devorah Spilman
I am standing in my favorite spot on a misty Sunday morning.
The beauty and stillness of the forest feels overwhelmingly precious, deep, and beautiful. I have tears in my eyes from such deep gratitude.
The contrast between the beauty, stillness, and quiet eternity of the forest
and the way the world feels wild right now touches me deeply.
The forest wraps its beauty around me.
I stand here in stillness, in beauty, in blessing.
Wow.
A Blessing from the Trees
Standing in stillness and wonder.
Breathe and remember the eternity of a moment.
The beauty beyond the ordinary.
Stand deep, tall, still, whole and beautiful.
Stand in the center of your being.
A soul of light, expanded beyond all old thoughts and stories.
Stand in the still beauty of your being.
Find a place of stillness within.
Enter the stillness and remember.
Be here and breathe.
Look up.
Look within.
See beyond.
Know deep truth.
Trust is built in this way.
Knowing that comes from within and from above and from all around. Knowing that comes directly to you.
Not because you are told, but because you know.
Allow yourself to know your own elegant, deep, true elemental, beauty of essence.
Remember deeply
that this is who you are.
All is well.
You are loved.
With love and blessings,

I am Devorah Spilman, professional storyteller, clown, puppeteer, actress, rock climber, wife, mother and grandmother. I like to describe myself as a Jewish spiritual creative (you will find much of the deep and somewhat wacky wisdom that I share has its roots in my Jewish culture). I am deep and wacky (always have been, always will be) and I love trees! During my daily forest walks, I have learnt to tune into the whispered wisdom trees impart – this has been the inspiration for my blog posts, titled A Blessing from the Trees, and my audio messages.
​
MY passion for storytelling has never diminished over the years, but now I am sharing the secrets of how I learned to listen to my soul’s calling and fulfil its vision of sharing my wisdom with the world.
