Dear List,
We should not forget that grounding is a physical body thing, so that energy
can flow through our body from the atmosphere around us to and through the
soil of our good earth.
It is electro-magnetism first before we even start thinking the more
symbolic kinds of grounding. That is what I like about Susan's list of
collected suggestions below.
We live too much on rubber, nylon and concrete that isolate us, carpeting
that only increases our static electricity. Many of us we work and live many
floors up. Cars isolate us not only from touching the earth with our feet
but also from physical contact with things, nature and people we see. A car
can be called an 'isolation tank' in the negative sense of the word. Start
walking...
Water, water, water? Drinking it may not do the job...
I find in my practice that many ppl. who have neurotic problem have nerve
problems. Many also have an aversion to water, bathing, showering,swimming,
walking and ...dancing in the rain.
Drinking processed water, even if bottled is almost useless... that's why
some of us have to drink so much of the stuff, it has no electro-magnetic
qualities anymore. Drink fresh rainwater, stream water, molten snow. Bottled
glacier water has been bottled too long before it reaches the consumer, it
has lost its natural characteristics. Well-water is the probably the best as
it has been earth and rock filtered. Fresh sea water and seaweed is even the
best as it provides all the electrolites.
If you have no access to sea water, use bottled water but solarize, stir it
vigorously with crystals, and run it through a rock bed or course sand, add
some Celtic seasalt (organic grey unrefined sun dried seawater from France,
Hawai or Mexico.
Airate you skin, brush yourself vigoriusly, run up a temperature, run up a
sweat... the seaty salts are the electrolitic crystals that process solar
rays into our nerve ends. (Is that why apes like to pick the from each
other?)
Each nerve end in our skin is a little chakra, and we have so many,
something like flowerbuds on the branches of fruit trees. But before the
buds develop, so to say, these nerve ends have to be exposed to the
elements...., yes, earth, water, fire (solar energy), air, space. Grounding
is an earth-universe binding and harmonizing process.
When we are not grounded, when we don't have our feet firmly planted in the
soil, these buds and shrivel and will not produce the leaves and flowers and
eventually be fruitous. We are like autonomous freely ambulating fruit
trees, the dancing kind, Krishna and the Gopis in the pond, Ramakrishna like
singing and dancing in that warm and humid Indian climate.
