Hints and Tips on Grounding

In this blog post, I want to share with you some hints and tips based on my experiences of being ungrounded and grounded over the years.

Sensations in the legs

When I first started doing daily grounding exercises I felt nothing.  Then over time, if I woke up very ungrounded and did the grounding exercises I started to feel sensations in my legs especially my calf’s.

Of course it is important to remember that some of this could indicate problems with your mental or physical health, so do go and see a doctor if you are concerned as well as trying to become more grounded.

 

Post Grounding Exercise
For any reader who is sensitive to energies, after they have completed this grounding exercise they may want to visualise Gaia’s energy flowing up each of the beams that wrap around the earth’s core, filling your whole physical body with healing earth energy.

 

Air Travel
Aeroplane travel can be challenging to those of us who struggle to stay grounded.  Before traveling, I do my daily grounding exercise as normal.   In addition, I imagine a silver cord from my root chakra or pelvic area that connects me to the core mother earth – basically an additional tent peg from my daily grounding routine.  When I am in the air, I set the intention that this silver cord “feeds me” the ideal vibration of Gaia’s energy to keep me grounded while I am in the air.

 

Hospitalisations
Being hospitalised is challenging for energetically sensitive people and it may impact who grounded you are.  It may be necessary to repeat a grounding exercise during the day.

  • Introduction to magnesium

    Of all supplements right now there seems to be a buzz around magnesium so I wanted to explore its role in the body. I first became aware of magnesium over a decade ago when my nutritionalist put me being a chocoholic down to a lack of magnesium.  It's then that I discovered that magnesium can ease PMS and chocolate is a good source of magnesium.  So for all women out there that eat chocolate at certain times of the month, like I used to, don't beat yourself up, it may be like me and your body is crying out for magnesium. Magnesium is a mineral that is not just important for the body it is ubiquitous.  It is crucial to:

    • Nerve transmission
    • Muscle contraction
    • Blood coagulation
    • Energy production
    • Nutrient metabolism
    • Bone and cell formation
    People get magnesium from their diet, but sometimes magnesium supplements are needed if magnesium levels are too low. Dietary intake of magnesium may be low, particularly among women. Magnesium deficiency is also not uncommon among African Americans and the elderly. Low magnesium levels in the body have been linked to diseases such a:
    • osteoporosis
    • high blood pressure
    • clogged arteries
    • hereditary heart disease
    • diabetes
    • strokes
    Foods that are high in fiber are generally high in magnesium.  Magnesium is also found in chocolate, diary products, meats and “hard” water or water with a high mineral content.
