The Importance of Grounding. The what’s, why’s and hows! Plus 10 signs you need to ground with Free Visualisation. (3 min Read)

The ‘science’ behind grounding, what it is, why it will make you feel bloomin’ amazing and how to do it!! And why it is vital for the work of energy workers and our health.

The term grounding gets bounded about a lot. But what does it really mean?

Grounding is your connection into the Earth. It’s our reality. Where our humanity is it’s truest.

Grounding is our connection into Mother Earth

Many lightworkers get caught up in the belief that they must be high as a kite to connect. But unless you are also grounded, and in your humanity, then you will never bring all of that amazing high energy you have access to into reality. It will never become part of the Earth and part of the fellowship of Mankind. It will make no real difference to the planet.

And if helping the planet and mankind in general isn’t your bag; that’s cool. But if it is then this is something you need to be aware of and understand.

How do you know if you’re ungrounded?

Many of you will be thinking fine! But what difference will this make to me on a day to day basis. Grounding helps with all of these issues:

1. Feeling groggy and sluggish

2. Feeling emotional imbalanced, including depression and bi-polar

3. Confusion and forgetfulness

4. Not understanding your connection to other humans

5. Being unaware of the emotional and physical impact you have on others

6. Long term energy loss, including ME and Adrenal Exhaustion

7. Unable to focus and procrastination

8. Clumsiness and making mistakes often

9. Personal Relationships suffer

10. Unstable Jobs or Home life

If you find yourself hitting three or more of these, then you need to look at grounding.

I am not saying that some of the more serious life blocks or illnesses will be simply cured by you grounding yourself once. But including grounding in your daily routine will make a difference to managing your conditions; until you get to the root of the issues.

I personally notice a difference if I do not ground for a couple of days.

For energetic and emotional life blocks and imbalance, I personally run workshops and work with clients to over come the root cause issue of their problems. Please have a look at my Facebook page to find out more.

The Science

Anyone heard of free radicals? Yup! They are those nasty little ions which buzz about our body which are incomplete atoms. They are missing one of a pair of electrons. Either negative or positive.

And for those of that are blessed enough to remember GCSE Science, apart from having a piece of chalk buzzed off the back of your head by the teacher when you zoned out, you may remember that positive electrons, attract negative electrons. And vice versa. They are constantly looking to complete themselves (they are looking for their lobster!! name that 90’s sitcom!).

They have a tendency to take their missing parts from our healthy atoms. Very naughty! 

You can eat foods which help restore the damaged atoms within your body.

But you know what?!! When you walk in the Earth bare foot, you create a circuit with the Earth. Which may or may not be helpful if you’re hit by lightening. In the same way I explained on my what is healing blog we conduct energy pretty well. And when you do that the damaged atoms within us can suck up the missing electron from the Earth and complete itself! Isn’t that sweet! And really, really good for your health. Don’t ask me for the details; I only got a B at GCSE!

And so, you can also do this with a visualisation; which is below. The most effective way however, is for you to walk barefoot in the grass. Tarmac just doesn’t have the same effect loves!!

And it is common knowledge that being in nature helps with depression and anxiety. If your energy is out of whack, quite literally, then the beautiful Earth will help heal you, which will heal your energy and your emotions.

I will create a blog with the a list of the reasons why you may not automatically be able to ground; looking at the core of issues I have found many have when having difficulty grounding in. Me being one of them!!

Till we meet again friends.

Much love as always

Visualisation

I am not going to tell you exactly what to see or feel when you do this visualisation. I am not the sort of teacher that is formulaic. I want you to grow and flourish in the way you are meant to. So please accept that what you see, feel, know or are reminded of as you do this visualisation is right and true for you.

“Think about your Root Chakra, a beautiful red glow at the base of your spine. Breathe slowly but naturally. Understand that this chakra connects you into the Earth.

Visualise, feel or know that you are connected to the planet through that Root. An energy comes from your root. Watch, feel and understand that it moves past your feet, through the floor, through the earth and dirt, the rocks. Layers of sandstone, chalk or clay. Stone and crystal. Until you reach the molten core of the planet.

Feel the planet embrace you and allow yourself to fall into her warm arms. Allow her to support you and raise you up. Allow her to see your vulnerabilities and she will keep you safe in this space. Stay in this space as long as you feel drawn to. When you are ready bring yourself back.”
