Some helpful tips from the Children of the Sun Foundation

GETTING AND STAYING GROUNDED   Many aspirants on the Path of Initiation are prone to placing their full attention upon the higher centers and associated spiritual matters. This lofty 'one-track-mind' focus often leads to an energetic sense of instability and of being ungrounded. If we are ungrounded, it is so easy to slip into the state of 'fight or flight' response when confronted with challenging situations. As we come to experience heightened levels of emotional control/stability, we can gracefully respond to any need or situation from a state of equanimity, love and compassion. Listed below are a few methods in which to assist grounding and stabilizing your energy bodies: Affirmations: I AM grounded in my body and upon the Earth, here and NOW.          Ensuring you are properly nourished by toxin free foods and liquids (ie: pure water, organic foods, proteins and minerals)          Less time in electrical energy fields, more time in nature and natural environments         Visualizations: grounding cords, flowers between the toes, feet becoming roots, etc.          Loving touch (massage, hugging, holding hands)     As we experience more pronounced degrees of stability and emotional grounding, we become a living forcefield of illumined peace. Excess energy is properly channeled and qualified through our multi-body system and surrounding environment. In order to achieve this, we must enter into a place of inner stillness with our emotional bodies as limpid pools, completely stabilized and free of personal emotion, utterly open to receiving the influx of love, tranquility and wisdom streaming forth from the Divine. It is vital to FEEL and KNOW that God is within for it is this grounded connection to the Divine that allows us to operate free of all fear, in a state of absolute confidence sharpened by unconditional warmth. Calm and stable = strong and able.
