Being grounded is a term that refers to being present, centered, and aware of your thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations. It can also mean having a strong sense of self and purpose, and trusting yourself. Grounding can be a powerful tool for mental and emotional health, and can help you feel less likely to be thrown off by upsetting events. - Google's AI Overview

Heart-Centered Grounding


​Grounding is important for lightworkers, so that even though they spend a lot of time being tuned in, they are also able to be fully embodied and present in the moment. It's also important to stay connected to their purpose and grounded in the truth of who they are.

Though we're used to thinking of the grounding process as something that involves the feet and an earth connection, grounding can also occur through your heart center.

Heart-centered grounding allows lightworkers to anchor themselves in love and compassion, as well as in truth. By focusing on your heart, you can attune to the frequency of love, and feel that love as part of the experience of being centered and grounded. 

Try this grounding exercise that focuses on the heart.

Heart-Centered
​Anchoring Exercise


​(1) Get into a comfy position. Close your eyes if you'd like.

(2) Place one hand over your heart. Take a few deep, slow breaths.

(3) As you breathe, focus on the warmth of your hand and the rhythm of your heartbeat.

(4) Visualize a soft, golden light glowing within your heart. With each breath, that light grows brighter and expands.

(5) Imagine this light creating a golden sphere around you, starting from your heart and extending outward.

(6) Within this sphere, imagine that you are held peacefully and securely by the energy of your heart.

(7) Think of a word or phrase that might help you feel centered (e.g., "peace," "strength," "balance"). Silently repeat this word or phrase with each breath.

(8) Feel yourself becoming calm, centered, and anchored, held within your heart's energy and the golden sphere of light.

(9) When you feel fully centered and grounded, slowly open your eyes, and take that grounded energy back into your day.

(10) Throughout your day, return briefly to this grounded state by placing a hand on your heart and thinking of your chosen word or phrase.

I'm watching the opening ceremonies for the Paris Olympics. So I'm not in a position to do the exercise. But it looks good. Will definitely try it soon. It looks like a great way for me to center myself. Thank you, Jeanine. Your exercises are always so wonderfully calming and you always show so much creativity.

This reminds me of an old friend, Celeste. She is quite spiritual and an avid learner. We used to talk about things, and she had a calming presence. Reading your anchoring exercise reminded me of the crystals she had that, I think, she used in some of her meditation..
