Grounding Your Physical Being

The first thing that you need to do is to ground your body. This is also called centering and means that your mind, body, and soul are healthy.

As you learn how to ground yourself, you will see that you can change your energy from your mind to your body and that this can take away stress, anxiety and can calm you.

How to Ground Yourself

Here are some ways that you can ground yourself:

Crown Grounding

The first thing that you can do is to put your hand over your head and to ground your crown. This can be done by making sure you aren’t distracted and by closing your eyes so you can concentrate.

Grounding the Feet

This is helpful and you can do it when you are sitting or standing. Be aware of how your feet feel and any kind of different feelings that you have.

Breathing

Breathing is a great way to ground yourself. Allow the air to come into your body and into your lungs. After you do that, let the air come out of your mouth. As you do this, pay attention to how you are breathing and how it calms your mind.

Be a Tree

One thing that you can do is to pretend that you are a tree. Keep your body held up high and straight and rest your hands at your side or over your stomach. Let all the weight of your body go to your feet and let the energy move from your body to the ground under you.

Shower or Bath

You can take a cold shower or a cold bath in order to:

• Build your immunity.
• Get rid of fat.
• Make your mood better.
• Trigger dopamine to flow.

Start this by having a cool and then warm shower and then as you do this for a few weeks, make the water colder and stay in it longer. This can help to ground you and is great if you have high blood pressure.

Grounding with the Earth

Another thing that you can do is called “Earthing.” This is when you are able to take your body and connect it to the earth. You can do this by imagining that your body is connected to a wire that goes into the earth.

Here are some great reasons why you should try Earthing:

• It can help your physical and emotional body.

Bioelectrical

The body is full of energy and there are currents that are constantly moving through your body. The energy that you have is your human biofield.

This is energy that is also called prana and the qi in Chinese medicine, and it is part of your life force that goes in and out of the body.

Electromagnetic

The qi of your body comes from the qi of heaven and earth. This is energy that comes from the planets and the sun and then energy that goes into your body. The earth will help you to make sure that this energy is strong by recharging it with lightning and solar movements.

Connecting to the Earth

There are things that you can do to help reconnect you with the earth and you can start this by removing your shoes that have rubber insoles when you are on the earth. The rubber insoles have stopped people from making a connection with the earth and if you want to have earth energy then you can take your shoes off and you will see that you can connect better.

Grounding with the Earth

You can do different exercises in order to connect with the earth. Do things like stand barefoot in the sand, go out in the garden, and take your shoes off or even lay down in it. This can help to ground you.

It is important that you take time to go to the ground with the earth each day and you can do this as many times and for as many minutes as you want. Here are some things to avoid when trying to earth ground:

• Grass with pesticides.
• Areas that have broken glass or sharp things.
• Walking barefoot on hot asphalt.

Be Mindful

Make sure you are mindful when you are walking through the earth. Make sure that you are keeping your feet safe and that you are using your whole foot when you walk.

You can try to walk and move around like a cat. This can help you to pick up good energy and to get rid of negative energy around you. Do this for as long as you want.

Be a Tree

Make sure that you try the above technique of standing like a tree. This can help you if you do this barefoot.

Visualizing

Think about the earth below your feet and let your heart become one with the earth. Let the energy of your life go to your heart and imagine that light fills your body and your soul.
