Let's Ground! PDF Print E-mail

Grounding is the first tool we learn. It’s the most fundamental, as well as the most important. Luckily, it’s also the most simple. Laughing

Basically, grounding is when you are connected to the center of the planet. Why would you do that? Well, when you’re grounded, your body gets more relaxed, your mind gets more calm, & it becomes lots simpler to meet the challenges of your day.

So, start by imagining a line between the base of your spine, and the center of the planet. You can do this with your eyes open & standing up, but it's often easier (esp. in the beginning) if your eyes are closed,  & you're sitting down.

  1. Picture a sphere or ball in front of you. Let that be an image of the planet earth, & notice the exact center of that sphere.
  2. Next, imagine a little figure for yourself, standing on the edge of that sphere.
  3. And now, imagine a line connecting that little figure from the base of its spine, to the center of that sphere. This is called a 'grounding cord'.
  4. Be creative! Is that line thick, thin, spiralling, brightly colored, dark, static, or flowing? The more you pay attention to that line, the more you will start to make that grounding happen.
  5. Now notice your body. How does it feel? Any different at all? Some people notice it gets calmer, a bit less 'noisy'... or that they feel heavier in their chair. Other people don't notice that, but they do notice that they're noticing themselves more than they were before. It's all good.
  6. Open your awareness to the base of your spine. What does it feel like? Touch it, wiggle it, 'wake-up' that part of your body. This is called "making the body real".

Now sit-back, & notice your space, how you feel. Notice how different you feel, than before you put-down that 'grounding cord'.

The  more you practice your grounding cord, the more real it will become... & the easier it will be to create, & the more dramatic the change in your space will become --  more relaxed, calm, & at-ease.

Congratulations! This is the first of the five major psychic meditation tools. Enjoy!!

PS: Here is a podcast version of this 'Grounding' meditation. Sometimes it's easier to 'follow-along' with our ears instead of our eyes, especially when we're trying to meditate...

Newsflash

How's about closing-out Last year with a little 'Completing the Cycles' Meditation? 

 
1) Imagine two bubbles in front of you... let's say a bit bigger than a beach ball but not bigger than a house. Laughing
Imagine one bubble is labelled "Last Year", & the other "The New Year".
 
Now start imagining a cascade of all the stuff from last year you'd love to forget...
... from politics to economic crises to panic-attacks to bad hair days...
... from dreams forgotten to plans mislaid to auld acquaintances to 'guilty-pleasure' tv-watching...
& let that whole avalanche just start filling-in that "Last Year" bubble, & watch (or imagine) it bulge...
 
Include anything & everything, from old/dead goals or mockups to old dead 'new years eve' promises to just plain un-fun events... in fact anything you'd like to get rid of... From stuff that's annoying to just mildly disturbing... Just bundle it up, or imagine a fork-lift, & just shove it all in there...
 
And just for a moment, notice if you feel any different as you imagine this... perhaps a little lighter, clearer... Or maybe your thoughts get just a little less hectic, your space just a little bit less 'busy'...

2. And now on to Step Two:
Now take a moment to Remember all your Successes from Last Year (or just your Favorite ones), your Joys, completed Creations... the Fun Times... Excelsior!
(You may even want to write some of them down, to remind you of 'battles won', eg. a 'stash of smiles' for rainy days...)
