Whether you’re navigating anxiety, emotional overwhelm, or simply seeking a calm start to your day, grounding meditation is a foundational practice in the field of subtle energy healing.
What is Grounding?
Grounding is the process of connecting your awareness back to the earth and your physical body. It moves attention away from overthinking and into the felt sense of the present moment. Grounding activates the parasympathetic nervous system – supporting calm, stability, and clarity.
