Grounding is basically just how you clean your slate of energy and start fresh. Feel free to make up your own methods for this, too- there are no wrong ways to do it. There are a few different ways that I learned personally

Meditative Visualization

1. Make sure some part of you is flat on the ground (I prefer my feet), and get comfortable. You can be sitting or standing.
2. Take some deep breaths to clear your head. It doesn’t have to be completely clear (I know how frustrating trying that can be), but the clearer the better.
3. Visualize the energy flowing throughout your body, circulating like your blood through every fiber of your being.
4. Imagine a rope or cord (really whatever you want) connecting you and your energy to that of the earth below you. Some people imagine this connected to their root chakra if that’s what you’re into, or just connected to whatever part of their body is touching the ground. Whatever works best for you, this is your visualization.
5. Take all of your negative and excess energy that’s floating around in you and is no longer serving you, and send it down the cord back into the earth. Any and all energy you don’t want or need, gone to be recycled into new earth energy.
6. Once all the excess is gone you should have a clean energetic slate. In my experience you can really feel the difference.

“Earthing”

1. Go outside. No shoes allowed if you can help it.
2. Find some kind of earth- dirt or sand or mud. Grass works too if there’s no other alternative but really you need to be able to bury your feet in it somewhat.
3. Do that. You can do it with your hands too if you want but I’ve found feet most effective. Bury your feet in the earth and really feel it, make a connection to the earth this way.
4. Imagine the earth absorbing all that energy you are holding onto that you don’t need anymore. Allow it to take the energy from you- it’s no longer serving you.
5. Some people with a little more physical energy in general (especially kiddos) can find that it helps them to shake off the energy to be given back to the earth. Dance around and wave your arms and whatever if that’s what suits you. Anyway you choose to remove the surplus energy. Since you’ve already made your connection to the earth via the ground it should still take on that energy even if your feet/hands aren’t buried anymore.
6. Once all the excess is gone you should have a clean energetic slate. In my experience you can really feel the difference.

Those are the only methods I’ve ever used myself. There are also things like grounding or earthing bands that you can use in your sleep (or just while you’re indoors)- you put them around your ankle or wrist or even your midsection and then a wire connects to the third prong of an electrical outlet (it actually does ground energy, for electrical use). I never liked those though. Hope this helps you my friend.
