In the last post on grounding, we went over what grounding is and why you might want to do it. There’s lots of good ways to ground, but let’s start with a classic- the Heaven and Earth meditation.
Start by finding a time and place when you can meditate without interruptions. Unplug the phone, send your loved ones to the movies and arrange for silence or gentle background music, whichever will help you to focus better.
Sit in a comfortable position, with your arms and legs uncrossed and feet flat on the floor.
Close your eyes and get ready to meditate…
Take a deep breath and exhale. As you breath out, exhale all tightness and tension in your body. Repeat until you feel your body starting to relax.
There are energy vortexes (called chakras) in many places on your body. Picture the chakras on the soles of your feet and the base of your spine gently opening and energetic roots growing out of them, reaching downwards, downwards until they reach the center of the Earth, and firmly take root there.
And you are firmly grounded and secured to Mother Earth…
(Second part of this meditation coming soon…)
