Grounding is a connection to the ground – the earth.
If we go a little deeper, grounding is a sense of our electromagnetic body connecting with the earth’s vibration. When we do this we absorb the positive, high vibration of the earth while simultaneously discharging negative, unwanted energy and into the earth.
But before this can occur we have to be connected within our own body, as it is through the body that we can connect with the earth.
If we are out of our body, disconnected from it, disassociated from it, or numb to it, we are not grounded. This means we are not present, we are not in the core of our being, we cannot connect to our true self nor connect to our higher self.
We can get into this space, of disconnect, if we are too much in the mind and constantly thinking.
Sometimes we disassociate from the body to get away from feeling the sensations of emotions as they are too uncomfortable for us.
The issue here is that when we are not in our bodies we can cause a whole myriad of health conditions, illnesses and mental issues. We can get depressed, anxious, have sleep issues and experience burn out.
To start with grounding we first need to connect with our body, then we can connect the body to the earth.
In these classes we also work on protection. We are energy beings and very susceptible to other energies from people, locations, environments, food, media, and situations.
When the energies we are exposed to are low, negative and harmful, and we are not correctly protected, they have a huge impact on our health, mental well-being, spiritual connection and joy.
When grounded and protected we are connected to our core and our higher self. We can operate from a wiser, more authentic, more heart-felt, and a more solid place of existence.
It is only when we feel grounded and protected do we feel safe and stable. Then we can use our energy for higher capacities like creating our reality, having fun, loving each other, and growing on our spiritual pathway.
Before you begin
- Set up your yoga / sadhana space. Read here about how to set up your space on the blog on Sadhana.
- Have all your items you will need in your sadhana space: a yoga mat (or soft surface to work on), a cushion, yoga block, shawl, water to drink, etc.
- Wear light, comfortable clothing that you can move easily in.
- Set aside 90 minutes where you will not be disturbed. Switch off your phone, put the dog out and let your family know you will be practicing your Kundalini Yoga for the next 90 minutes.
- Follow along with the video as it is laid out. This is very important as the class is designed in a very specific way for a specific outcome.
- Adapt as needed: You know your body and ability the best, so if you need to adjust a movement to cater for an injury or medical condition then do so. If you cannot do a particular posture or movement then sit quietly and do the breathing practice that comes along with the movement, but don’t skip the exercise. If you get tiered in a movement, take a short breather for a few seconds and then continue with the movement.
- Don’t skip the resting part (savasana) at the end of the class. This is a key element in the class where rest, integration, assimilation and absorption take place. If you feel you need more rest then lay down for a further 5 to 10 minutes once the class has ended.
- After the class: drink plenty of water, eat high vibrational foods and be aware of the changes you experience in your life!!
- ENJOY!!
