I’m sharing with you today my favorite Grounding Technique. Life gets busy, minds get messy and our heads drift into the clouds with all the things we are planning in the future, or maybe you are on the opposite end and stuck in the past. Maybe worrying about something that has yet to happen. ( A misuse of the imagination.) Both by the way which take away from the here & now moment.
What's Grounding Going to do for you
As much as I love having my head in the clouds with my daydreams & visualizations, it’s also necessary to have our feet/ roots planted in the ground. This will bring those thoughts into manifestation to the physical form.
When we are grounded we are present, mindful, and conscious of what is happening around us. We have faith in life and our purpose. We trust in the timing of life. Grounding helps us feel safe and supported, and our needs are always met in this moment.
Feeling Ungrounded
You know that you are ungrounded when you are constantly worrying about a future event that hasn’t happend yet. When you feel fear and anxious about life. Feeling like you have no place in life or no purpose is a sign of a not so healthy root chakra, and the Root Chakra and Grounding go hand in hand.
Daydreaming about a life you want to live or things that you want, but are not able to make happen, whether that be lack of motivation or fear of failure can also be signs of the need for grounding and maybe a little self reflection as well.
My Grounding Technique
- Imagine a cord is being laced down like a shoe lace starting at your Solar Plexus.
- Both ends of the cord then enter through the Sacral Chakra and the through the Root Chakra.
- Each side of the cord then travels down each leg and comes out the soles of the feet.
- About a foot below our feet is our Earth Chakra. This is where the cords meet.
- Imagine a huge Crystal here at this point and the cord wraps or ties around the crystal.
- The crystal then starts to sink deep into the Earth until it reaches the center.
- I like to imagine the center of the Earth as another large crystal. Once your crystal meets the center of the earth they merge together.
- Your energetic cord is now attached to the center of the earth.
- Imagine Earths energies traveling up the cord all the way to your Earth Chakra, through the soles of your feet, up your legs, into your Root Chakra, your Sacral Chakra, and your Solar Plexus.
- Feel that you are connected to the Earth
- Breathe in Higher Light Energy from the top of Your head passing into your Crown Chakra and traveling all the way down to hyour solar plexus to meet with the Earths energies.
- On you exhale imagine both these energies mixing and spreading all throughout your body.
- Repeat this breath several times.
I’d love for you to watch my IGTV video up above. It goes over these things but I describe it a little more. Plus my I have my adorable son as a little helper.
