Try this:

• Think of an outdoor place you sometimes visit¹.

• Invent an invisible conscious entity which inhabits this place.

• Visit the place. Say hello to the entity. Make them an offering². Thank them.

• Do this repeatedly.

• Observe how your relationship to the place changes.

You do not have to believe in fairies. Sometimes supposing is enough.

1. This should be a place with some nature in it. Perhaps a garden, park, or hilltop, or just a tree or flower patch.

2. Fruit and nuts are good. Cake is good. Honey is good. A small libation of whisk(e)y is good. Don’t leave plastics, or anything which looks out of place. Don’t leave chocolate (which is poisonous to many wild animals).
