How To Ground Yourself In Challenging Times
What does it mean to be ungrounded?
Feeling spacey, in your head
Overthinking
Making compulsive decisions
Distracted easily, checking out
Feeling anxious, buzzing feeling that won’t settle
Getting sucked into drama
How will you know when you are grounded?
Being fully present in your body
Central nervous system is settled
Feeling connected to the self and the earth
Centered in your thoughts and not swayed by fear
Trust in yourself and your intuition despite what is happening around you
At ease. A feeling of being safe.
Tips to get grounded:
🌳 Put your feet on the ground and visualize roots growing from the core of the earth into your feet, stabilizing your energy.
🌳 My favorite - Take an Epsom salt bath.
🌳 Go for a walk outside in nature, move your body, get the blood flowing.
🌳 Take a cold shower
🌳 Burn incense or essential oil with earthy scents such as frankincense, pine or Nag Champa
🌳Yoga & Breath Work
🌳 Get still. Turn off your phone and become aware of your body. Sit in stillness for a few minutes.
🌳 Clap your hands, or listen to music that inspires you.
🌳 Dance
🌳 Sip your favorite tea
🌳 Spend time with your pets, their energy is incredibly grounding
