Grounding - We Are Electrical Beings Who Need Recharging

How IMPORTANT it is to ground yourself - and how easy it is to forgetβ¦
Start walking barefoot as much as you can whenever the season allows it.
In quantum physics, everything is energy - and every form of energy vibrates at a certain frequency. That includes your thoughts, your emotions, and even your physical body.
When you walk barefoot (also known as grounding) you restore your connection with the Earth's natural electromagnetic field.
The Earth carries a negative charge - and when your bare feet touch the ground, you absorb electrons that help neutralize and discharge stress, anxiety and low-frequency energy from your body.
You are quite literally tuning your body back to its natural rhythm.
According to reflexology, every part of the foot is connected to an organ or system in the body. So when you walk barefoot on grass, soil, rock or sand, you stimulate important energy zones β such as the brain, the spine, the lungs, the liver, the kidneys and the heart. This boosts circulation, reduces inflammation and naturally raises your vibrational frequency.
You feel lighter, calmer and more in sync.
You can also ground yourself by leaning against a tree, spending time in nature, swimming in the sea or taking a bath with Epsom salt.
Here in Norway there are times of the year when it is difficult to have direct contact with the earth by walking barefoot and so on. But another lovely way to ground yourself is to visualize roots growing out from under your feet, stretching all the way down to the Earth's inner core. Feel free to do this visualization as part of your meditation.
Grounding is so incredibly important in the world we live in today, as we are surrounded by so many electromagnetic devices that expose us to radiation and drain our energy. We need to RECHARGE. Sadly, we are drifting further and further away from nature. Try to set aside a few minutes up to half an hour EVERY DAY for this - it is something truly good you can do for your body.
You can also get grounding sheets for your bed, and they are very good
- but the NATURAL way is the very best.
