Electronic Equipment – Completing the Circuit
In electronic equipment, electrical grounding completes the circuit and makes it possible for the device to operate properly.
A poor electrical ground can cause electronic components in one part of an appliance to operate poorly or fail, and affect the performance and correct operation of all other electronic components to which it is connected.
Grounding to Mother Earth
Grounding to Mother Earth is like the electrical ground for electronic equipment.
Grounding, also called earthing, is a therapeutic technique that involves doing activities that “ground” or electrically reconnect you to the earth. This practice relies on earthing science and grounding physics to explain how electrical charges from the earth can have positive effects on your body.
A physical connection with Mother Earth provides many health benefits. This can be done by walking around in bare feet or conductive leather moccasins or sandals.
When we are physically connected to the earth, any free radicals that we have in our body are absorbed by the earth. This causes us to be infused with negative electrons from the earth’s magnetic field. The negative electrons neutralize the effects of damaging free radicals in our body, helping to restore us back to a state of balance and wellbeing.
Physical Benefits
Grounding to Mother Earth improves sleep, manages pain and normalizes cortisol (a stress hormone) that helps reduce our stress response. It also strengthens the immune system and decreases inflammation, which enables the body to heal faster from many chronic illnesses. This includes diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular conditions, diabetes, persistent pain and autoimmunity syndromes.
Grounding Chakra
We also have a grounding chakra that is located 6-18 inches below our feet, that provides an energetic connection with Mother Earth that affects our spiritual and physical health.
Our Grounding chakra “completes” the circuit of our being’s Taurus energy and connection with Mother Earth as well as the higher levels of our being and etheric octaves.
This allows us to be centered and grounded to Mother Earth and also connected to the Divine.
Working with Grounding Chakra
When our Grounding chakra is out of equilibrium or more closed or shutdown than it should be, it affects the energy flows and balance(s) in the chakras and meridians systems, even affecting pressure points.
Acupuncturists, who specifically work with chakras and meridians, as well as other spiritual energy workers often address grounding issues, amongst many other problems when they work on a person.
Poor Grounding Causes Problems
People that are not grounded may be spacey, scatter brained, unable to focus or function in the world. Some people may experience physical pain in the body, i.e., headaches, pressure in the chest, blood pressure issues and may other physical symptoms.
For optimal health and spiritual wellbeing our Grounding chakra needs to be balanced and completely open.
Things You Can Do
Things you can do to balance and open your Grounding chakra:
- Physically connect with Mother Earth as often as possible. Connecting with Mother Earth opens the Grounding chakra, bringing it back into balance.
- Grounding Chakra Exercise:
- Imagine a bubble that completely surrounds you.
- Fill the bubble with white light from above.
- Starting at the level of your Heart chakra, the width of your auric field, imagine a shaft of light going down through your feet and then anchoring in the center of the earth.
- Feel the loving, balancing, grounding Mother Earth energy coming up through the bottom of your feet and then swirling around in your body.
- Again, starting at the level of your Heart chakra, the width of your auric field, imagine a shaft of light going through the top of your head, through your crown chakra, then through the Universe and then anchoring in the center of Creation.
- From the center of Creation, see the energy from the Divine begin to flow down through the shaft, traversing the Universe, continuing downward through your crown chakra, then through the top of your head and down into your body. See it begin to mix and swirl around with the Mother Earth energy.
- See the energy from the Divine continue to flow through the bottom of your feet and then anchor in the center of the earth.
- Your Taurus energy is now flowing freely, connecting and grounding you to Mother Earth and at the same time connecting you to the Divine.
- This is the walk of the Master’s. Being able to be on the Earth, but not of the Earth.
- Listen to the meditation Merging with Mother Earth, the Essence of Gaia. This can help us with our grounding, and increase our appreciation of our blessed planet, as well.
Grounding Chakra and Growing Spiritually
As we grow spiritually our bodies, and our frequencies continue to rise, it becomes more important that our Grounding chakra is open, balanced and functioning properly. If our Grounding chakra is blocked the energies from the Divine can become blocked, feeling as if they are stuck, which can create physical pain and cause stagnation in our spiritual growth.
Circle of Spiritual Acceleration
When our energy systems are working correctly, we are able to receive more energy from the Divine. This, in turn, accelerates our spiritual growth.
