Strike a Balance

Sometimes the energetic forces swirling around us can feel a bit out of whack, leaving us feeling pretty out of whack as well. This week we focus on how to create your own kind of balance, a feeling of being grounded and centered amidst all the chaos. It covers the practice of grounding your energy so you’re not left feeling as spastic as an un-tethered balloon, or as immobile as a garden slug.

In addition to the suggestions below, here is a quick visualization that will help keep you feeling centered in your body: start with taking a nice, deep breath in, and as you exhale,  imagine your energy moving down from the top of your head, down your body, and down to the soles of your feet. Now imagine the energy coming out of your feet in the form of vines that extend downward into the Earth. See these vines grow down, pushing through the rock and soil and then wrap around a rock, anchoring there. This will help keep your energy focused in your body. Once you get the hang of it you can do it instantaneously anytime, anywhere.  

May your energy scales be balanced and your week a joyous one!

With Love.

From Over There: 10.12.14 Weekly Focus Planetary energy fluctuations are occurring that may create feelings of imbalance. One may feel energized and then fatigued, changing from moment to moment. Use this time to practice grounding your energy in order to bring balance and sustain equilibrium. Without doing so, one risks the stress of excess energy and the worry of fatigue. To balance oneself energetically also brings balance to the emotions, creating a greater sense of peace and overall happiness.

This week’s question:
Q: Can you please elaborate on what is meant by the stress of excess energy and the worry of fatigue?

A. With excess energy- when there is no outlet for release –anxiety and stress can occur, leaving one feeling unsettled and overwhelmed. Grounding practices such as connecting with the natural world, exercising the body and pleasurable forms of physical movement, and the ingesting of protein help utilize the excess energy in a positive manner. The worry of fatigue often arises when one equates the feelings of fatigue with impending illness or mental depression. By following the aforementioned grounding practices, one reinvigorates the senses and releases blocked or stagnant energy in the mind and body. It is personal preference as to which grounding practice or practices are best suited for the individual.
