Part of the Eutierria series, Reform focuses on the importance of creating balance and improving your current state of being in your life. Eutierra refers to the concept of having a good and positive feeling of oneness with the earth and its life forces. When it occurs, your perception of the boundaries between yourself and all else—the thoughts and feelings setting you off from the rest of the cosmos—seem to evaporate. The distinction between you and nature (or in the religious versions nature and God) breaks down. You become one with the universe. A reassuring sense of harmony and connection with the world infuses your consciousness. It’s an experience that matches up with the knowledge of your own dependence on and connection to the world.
