Staying Grounded

Your task for this week and every week if you choose it is to GET OUTSIDE! Keeping ourselves grounded is very important and necessary for health and well being. If we wish to develop our psychic gifts we must remain grounded and centered so that we can listen, trust and feel our way. This means daily connection with your body, mind and soul all synchronized as ONE. When we are not grounded we struggle to draw our full potential of energy throughout our body, and awareness so that we can connect with higher consciousness (the space where all truth, wisdom and solution lies). This is much like being an electronic device that is not plugged in, it just doesn’t work…we miss the opportunity to shine and use our full power and potential.

Connecting with Mother Earth is very healing and powerful for us, often when we are the most stressed out and disconnected we neglect this deep need for earth connection. I encourage you all to really practice the difference in daily nature connection as opposed to missing this connection…simply note the difference you will learn best through experience so journal your awareness as you make a point to connect with nature daily, as well as journal how you feel when you miss this opportunity. Wisdom will flow through your own experience so pay attention and learn.

How to know if we are NOT grounded:

~Our perceived fears are out of control, anxiety
~We tend to exaggerate our problems and obsessively worry
~Many become overly dramatic and defensive
~Feelings of insecurity and depression rise
~We begin to stumble, accident prone, flighty and are not present
~We find it a struggle to concentrate and BE present and focused in the Now
~We feel as if we are spinning our wheels getting nowhere, wasting energy and generating more stress…feelings of exhaustion

When we are not grounded and present our energy gets blocked and we struggle to connect mind and heart. If we are too mind focused we can obsess and get stuck in our head. This causes a disconnect and we struggle to connect mind and heart and therefore we feel cut off from inner knowing AKA intuition. Being grounded is our basic need to tuning into our intuition. As we consciously connect with Source we ignite our energy and we thrive, when we disconnect from Source we struggle and cause harm to our body, mind and spirit.

When we are cut off from Source and ungrounded we become defensive, crabby and emotional. It is wise to take notice of this shift in emotion immediately as you feel the feeling of being OFF, and get outside and move your body and clear the energy away. Being ungrounded will sneak up on us so pay attention and simply reconnect as soon as you notice these uncomfortable unpleasant energies.

We can observe the signs of being ungrounded:
~we feel anxious
~we feel crabby
~we start wasting energy complaining about how crappy we feel
~we lose your connection and feel uneasy, unfocused, or unhappy

The important thing to remember is to catch these shifts before we unravel and lose control of our energy. The good news is that it is easy to plug back in and get connected. Simply get back into your body breathe and move your body. Getting our bodies back into alignment and into Divine flow moves our energy and helps us feel reconnected and in this space we can FEEL our way and follow intuition and know thy self. Our solutions to life situations lie within and when we are connected we can easily access this higher consciousness and wisdom. We stop spinning our wheels and wasting energy and start flowing with ease, grace and efficiency.

Make it a habit to ground, and connect daily it will serve you and others in powerful and miraculous ways. Try it!
