To me grounding means many things.⠀
⠀
Yes, it means connecting to the electrical charges from the earth and yes it has a positive effect on the body, but there is also so much more to explore!⠀
⠀
When you start to pay attention to what you give your time to, what you choose to tune into, what you choose to follow and what and who surrounds you in your environment. You realize everything holds a frequency, a feeling, a truth - but is it serving you? Does it support you? Does it make you feel good? If not, how can you change it? ⠀
⠀
When you aren’t grounded you feel fatigued, anxious, stressed, scattered, worried, etc. Now how can you possibly feel safe to go after your deepest desires when you feel this way? ⠀
⠀
༄ Here is an easy remedy to stay grounded as you grow⠀
⠀
⋒ Connect to nature or your inner nature ⠀
⋒ Set boundaries with devices, media and the news⠀
⋒ Move daily⠀
⋒ Buy natural materials ⠀
⋒ Eat whole foods⠀
⋒ Get a good sleep ⠀
⠀
P.S. Earth Day is one week away!⠀

Unlocking Your True Essence ⠀
⠀
Understanding who it is you came here to be can be hard when you have stored everyone else's thoughts and opinions since the day you were born. This transfers to your soul not feeling safe to express itself fully. ⠀
⠀
My advice to anyone feeling confused about your soul's true essence is simply look at what you used to do as a kid for fun. What was exciting and interesting to you and how did you behave when in these moments.⠀
⠀
⋒ For example, my sister and I used to spend a lot of time in nature, making hats from rhubarb leaves pretending we were fairies and making “potions” in tinctures (embarrassing but so magical!) The way I understand this now is my strong need to feel magic in my life and to honour my inner mystic. ⠀
⠀
⋒ We were also always making things, whether it was jewelry, painting, drawing, dancing. We loved expressing ourselves creatively and would sell our creations to neighbours, family and friends. The way I understand this now is my work needs to be a creative expression of myself but also brings joy, peace and beauty to other people's lives. ⠀
⠀
⋒ Being outside in nature is a huge part of me as well, because it allows me to feel free, to explore, and have a sense of adventure to satisfy my wanderlust. It is also where I get my inspiration from. ⠀
⠀
Identifying these qualities has allowed me to make sure I carve out time every day to honour these parts of myself because that is when I feel the most joy and it helps me to stay feeling full. ⠀
⠀
Now it is your turn! What did you spend most of your time doing as a kid? Why did you love it? What's the underlying message behind it? Putting any shame, embarrassment or doubts aside. How can you honour these parts of yourself every day or at least every week?⠀
⠀

Coming home to your soul through nature 🌿
⠀
I know so many people don't have the same luxury I have to be out and around nature which makes me so sad. When we lose connection with the outside world we can easily become lost in our inside world. ⠀
⠀
So I thought it was important to share some of my favourite tricks to satisfy the senses & restore inner lifeforce to stay feeling grounded and energized while at home. ⠀
⠀
⋒ Bring more houseplants into the home (if you can), or any cool rocks or branches that speak to you⠀
⠀
⋒ Have a sea salt bath or shower followed by body oiling with a natural scent such as rose ⠀
⠀
⋒ Purify your air with beeswax candles, sage or essential oils ⠀
⠀
⋒ Really touch and feel your food as you make it - be present with it. Use lots of herbs and spices, drink tea!⠀
⠀
⋒ Listen to music that brings you into an alpha-theta state ⠀
⠀
⋒ BONUS - Visualize it! (We can have any feeling we would like by just imagining it - that is how powerful the mind is). Need help? Get Grounded, my free mini-series will guide you through a visualization. ⠀
Which one will you implement into your daily routine?⠀
