You need "doafter". See this page:

http://www.gammon.com.au/scripts/doc.php?function=DoAfter

You need to make the trigger/alias "send to script" and in the "send" box type something like:

DoAfter 10, "eat food"

Set the alias to "send to script". Then, in the send box do this:

Send "channel earth"
DoAfter 3, "channel fire"
DoAfter 6, "channel water"
DoAfter 9, "channel air"


The DoAfter sends a command after the specified number of seconds (from the script execution, not from each other) so in this case the commands are sent at 3-second intervals.
