Energetic Grounding

Grounding is often a term used around those involved in Spiritualism and New Age Thought. A common definition explains the connection of our body's energy to the earth. Being grounded can be defined as the process of being connected to the earth’s energy through our energetic system. This definition is most common even though there is more to it. Many do not realize that we are electrical beings composed of energy at our core, yet it does not dismiss this fact. This is part of which makes this process of being grounded is so important.

Physical Beings On An Energetic Planet

We are physical energetic beings living on this physical energetic planet. We are constantly connected to this place and time as long as we are living beings. Our connection at times can get weighed down or thinned out, causing us distress. This state of stress is known as being ungrounded.

As you may have discovered in my article called “6 Facts About Grounding (The Whats & Whys)”, when a person is ungrounded their energy field can pick up and excess of energy from their environment easily. The process of Grounding allows our body's energy and energy field to discharge excess energy. It allows our bodies energy to keep a stronger connection with the reality in which we exist.

The Act Of Grounding

There are many ways to go about grounding yourself and establishing that reconnection with the energy of the earth. Often eating or drinking water may work.

For an individual who is sensitive, grounding may not be as easy of a task as it is for others. With those who work with spiritual energy such as spiritual readers, psychics, mediums, and those involved in spiritual healing modalities, grounding is an essential and important process.

The Use Of Rocks & Gemstones

Many individuals use rocks and gemstones to aid them with grounding. Almost any type of black stone can aide you with keeping grounded if you are carrying it on your person or wearing it as jewelry. One of the best stones to use for grounding is Black Tourmaline. It has many very useful properties but can be of particular help with grounding. Gemologist and founder of The Crystal Healing & Resonnace Centre, Lilly Rahmann Phd recommends anyone who works with any healing modality or spiritual energy wear Black Tourmaline on their left ankle to assist them with remaining grounded.

Visualization & Imagination With Your Body

One of the most common and effective visualization methods of grounding is visualizing roots growing out of your feet deep into the earth. With this visualization, you picture good strong tap roots growing out from the heel and forefront of the foot growing about a good three to four feet into the earth, then establishing a good root system. After this, you feel the connection to the earth through this root system and pull the feeling of this energy up through the legs, into the spine, and all the way up to the top of the head, after this you then allowing the energy to integrate throughout your body. This method of grounding actually Lilly Rahmann Phd recommends that individuals become very familiar with first before relying on stones to help ground.
