We live in a world that is increasingly ungrounded and ungrounding. Between the pace we’re often expected to keep up with, to the messages we’re bombarded with about how we’re supposed to be living our lives (this post included! :)).

And often all outside of a context of connection to nature…to community…to compassion for self. It’s so easy to find ourselves carried away and swept up in the busyness, drama or challenges of life. Recently I’m remembering that regrounding is as simple as reconnecting with myself.

When we become ungrounded – drifting and thrashing about, at what feels like the whim of life – all we really have to do is drop anchor, and come back into ourselves. We can use crystals, or sage, or earthing, or meditation as tools, but they’re simply a vehicle to getting us back to one of our truest anchors: connection to self.
