Today many of us live in highly urbanised areas and work indoors such that we have limited daily interaction with nature. We live busy lives and rushing around everywhere and we don’t stop “to smell the roses.” As a result many of us are ungrounded.
If we are not grounded, we are not operating at our full capacity. Examples of being ungrounded include:
- Feeling spaced out or dizzy
- Forgetting appointments, or where you left your keys…
- Falling asleep during meditation
- Bumping into things
- Functioning on “automatic pilot”
- Unfocused
Grounding techniques work to bring you back into the present moment, enabling you to function at greater capacity and with more clarity. “Living in the now” enables you to fully appreciate the smaller moments of life.
Those of us working on our spiritual development are often ungrounded as we may still be connected to the higher realms or operating out of our upper chakras. Grounding will bring you back into your body and back into the moment.
