Grounding allows you to become totally present now. You can focus more clearly on your to-do list, goals, dreams, and relationships. Have you ever felt all over the place where you cannot get out of your head, and your thoughts are running rampant? I know I have many times. I can recall during my morning meditation time, past interactions running marathons in my head and repeating a mantra was not working. How can I stop these thought marathons? I have found grounding myself before mediation works. Here are four steps on how to ground yourself before pursuing your desired outcomes.

1. Calm and Clear your Mind


Practice breathing techniques; there are many to choose from. You can breathe in for 5 seconds and breath out for 5 seconds. Do about 5 rounds of them. Allow yourself to become present in your surroundings without judgment. Keep your mind focused on gratitude. Allow your mind to ease into a calm and safe state of being.


2. Seek Inner Wisdom


Ask questions of yourself. What do I need? What am I afraid of? What do I want? What can I let go of? Record your answers. Seek out others you believe in and your desired pursuits. Imagine you were born with the keys to open all the desired doors on your path, and all you must do is activate the code. Remember, the power lies within.


3. Take Inspired Action


Follow your inner promptings to read that book, go somewhere, call someone, finish that project, apply for that job, or to try something new. There is no reason to doubt who you are and what you can accomplish. Trust yourself and act.


4. Believe


See yourself accomplishing your desired outcomes with ease. No matter how much work is needed, it can be done with inner ease because you know where you are going, and you are open to better outcomes.


There is nothing you can not accomplish when you are grounded in your truth.
