[00:00:02] Welcome to the Making of youf. I'm Alexandria, founder of the Mastery Project, and you'd Transformation Hub, and this podcast is dedicated to understanding the whys and ways to transform and to create experiences that are enjoyable, successful, purposeful and prosperous, while becoming the architect of your own life.
[00:00:24] Okay, let's get into it. So today's episode is the five Whys. Being grounded with it won't cramp your style.
[00:00:33] Now, number one, what does being grounded actually mean? Well, I know there's the slang term out there, and it normally means that you've been a bit rebellious and you got a slap, doesn't matter what age you are, and you feel like the universe is perhaps dumped you in a heap, you're being punished, your choices are confined, or you've had privileges taken away.
[00:00:58] Well, I'm not going to talk about that type of grounding today.
[00:01:01] And the type of grounding I want to talk about is the most important aspects of how grounding helps you. Creativity helps ease and flow. Self love helps build a life that you can really feel fulfilled and enjoy.
[00:01:18] So what do I mean about being grounded? Well, there's three components for me in being grounded, and that is your heart, mind alignment, and being in the now.
[00:01:30] So let's move to number two. What are the benefits of the grounding that I'm talking about?
[00:01:36] If you've listened to any of my podcasts, you'll know that I am big into the heart mind alignment.
[00:01:42] So I want everyone to use a hundred percent of their resources and to understand the energetic marriage between the immaterial and the material.
[00:01:51] So if you are in your heart, if you spend some quiet moments checking out what you truly want, listening to yourself and connecting consciously, and you're going to give yourself a wonderful opportunity to step into that infinite heart portal and to connect with all that is to connect with the endless energy, the immaterial flows of energy that are making up the universe, making up us, our bodies, our experiences, our emotions. Everything about our life is energy.
[00:02:24] And it is that we need that fuel, of course, that connectedness and that alignment to create our life.
[00:02:32] So if we avoid our hearts, we're going to have quite a lot of problems with fuelling our world. Yes, we can do it. But if you're not aligned in your heart, then you can have a really big degree of struggle or hardship or difficulty. And of course that's not the way to be, or that's not a fulfilling experience.
[00:02:54] So please, when you're looking at creating, do spend those moments connecting and aligning with Your infinite inspiration, your heart portal.
[00:03:06] So fueling that also is going to come from the immaterial and then move into the material. Because of course we want to experience our dreams in our reality, our day to day living.
[00:03:17] So that's where the mind for me comes in. It is a mind that is charged with administrating our lives. So planning, writing lists, making the appropriate commitments in the physical world to be able to deliver the experiences that we want for ourselves.
[00:03:38] So that's the combination there. Heart, mind alignment.
[00:03:42] And if we want to experience physically, of course we need to commit and plan and focus our energy into the forms that we want. So apply and be prepared to do the work. But also the inspiration, the fueling of in the greatest level and in the original level of any creativity is going to start in the heart.
[00:04:06] Okay, so where does grounding come in? Well, the heart, mind alignment, when we're in balance and when we're using our energies in that beautiful 100% efficiency in combination, we're going to be balanced, we're going to be now. And that is one of the greatest keys to groundedness.
[00:04:23] The reason, perhaps we got in trouble, we got some slapped back. It could be that we were just being a rebel with a cause without conflict. But if we were being rebellious and charging off into the future, charging out of balance and charging into unself loving behavior, then it's often that we find the universe presents a little bit of resistance to this because we've run away from our balance point. And as a result we're grounding the less and less of our energy, we're getting less and less practical use of our energy.
[00:05:02] So my number two is please combine your heart, mind alignment and please be aware of how now you actually are. So how much of what is in front of you can you dedicate to? Can you focus upon, but also not focus to the point of a headache, but that commitment to surrender to what is in front of you, rather than thinking of, oh, what's going to happen at coffee break or oh gosh, I didn't like what happened yesterday.
[00:05:30] So all of that scattering into the future and the past, that isn't grounded, all right? And that can create a lot of leaks in our energy or an inability to focus our amazing infinite potential effectively.
[00:05:48] Okay, so number three.
[00:05:51] Well, for me, if you're grounded, it doesn't mean that you're a simpleton or that you are unsubtle or that you are lacking quality.
[00:06:03] What it can mean is when people are grounded, they are very much aware of the essential components of any circumstance.
[00:06:12] And today our world has got very scattered, it's got very adrenalizing, it's got quite polarized and extreme. Now we're coming back from that and we are all beginning to realize that balance is very, very important.
[00:06:27] And in a weird way we're kind of grounded. I think we could all say with COVID and the way that played out, a lot of us would have felt quite grounded or stuck at home or not having the freedoms that we usually have.
[00:06:42] But as many people commented in that time people became very creative and they also became very appreciat initiative of community and now and what was happening in their lives and now because many of the scattering or demanding or the outside unfoldment in their lives wasn't happening because they couldn't go anywhere.
[00:07:07] So it was a form of grounding, but it was also a form of understanding how important it is to appreciate where we are and the now.
[00:07:16] So my number three is grounding helps you simplify, it does not make you a simpleton. It also can unclutter and decomplicate your life.
[00:07:30] Because when you look into the now and actually ask yourself what do I want to achieve? Or what am I grounding, what am I getting into form, what am I getting done, what am I supporting in my self loving process, Then you can really begin to, to appreciate and be sort of topping up your own energy, your sense of appreciation, your sense of self love, your sense of I am encouraging myself and I have motivation or I have inspiration to continue on my path forwards.
[00:08:07] When we expand too far out into the future or get lost in the past and you can imagine our energy is leaking, it's being scattered. We're not grounded because we're not heart and mind balanced and we're not in the now.
[00:08:20] So the now is a bit like us expanding out on a piece of elastic and then when we ground, the elastic snaps and we kind of spring back into that now balance. And actually if we've had that degree of stress, it's a blessing to go back into that balance point because some of the time it is literally life saving.
[00:08:45] So if you feel I don't like coming down to earth, then I would suggest you look at are you very expanded in your perspective and you're just finding it a little bit difficult to focus your energy, but you've got a lot of great ideas or do you, if you hand on heart were honest with yourself, are you scattered into a lot of different aspects, but sort of spreading yourself too thinly and not being able to ground any of those beautiful opportunities.
[00:09:17] So it's this type of question with grounding that we need to ask ourselves, because grounding isn't there to limit ourselves, it's there to help us focus our energy, make it practical, make it a reality that we can enjoy and feel fulfilled and encouraged on our path forward.
[00:09:36] Okay, so number four. Well, our biggest and most beautiful, I might add, reminder and supporter about being grounded and being aligned with all the beautiful cycles in our life is of course our host planet, Mother Earth. All right, now, I know a lot of people go, oh, it's just a big object, it's a big rock and it's hurtling in a fixed orbit around and around in the galaxy. But I want to say that Mother Earth is actually a consciousness. She is a beautiful being who has signed up to help humanity learn. Now, she's divine, she is creatively synchronized. She is our grounding, Oscar award winning, BAFTA award winning example that we can always look to in our lives and say, Mother Earth, she's kind of got the whole understanding on grounding.
[00:10:40] So she's saying, in life to be grounded is to have, yes, your roots down, but it doesn't mean that you can't also sway, you can't be flexible and it doesn't also mean that you can't grow actually in a very expansive way in each moment. But it is about, as we've talked in the other numbers, it's all about alignment. So recognizing if you are heart mind aligned, if you are in the now, if you are committed and focusing your energy in the now rather than scattering it outside of yourself.
[00:11:21] So Mother Earth is there to help us when we are perhaps a little bit ungrounded. And one of my practical suggestions to people when they say, oh, I'm so scattered or I'm so worried or I'm anxious, is to go and walk in Mother Earth, to walk in nature, to be with the natural elements that you feel will be the most calming and the most restorative, the most rebirthing and realigning.
[00:11:49] So this could be. You go, yeah, I'll just go off to the seaside, that's my happy place. Or you feel that you'd like to go and walk in the hillside or, or walk amongst, you know, trees, go to a forest.
[00:12:04] So what Mother Earth is doing is saying, regroup. Bring your heart and mind back together, be in the now and allow yourself to surrender to that beautiful natural balance which is yours naturally. But with the pressures of modern living, we do find it very easy to be on our phones, to be outside of ourselves, to be overstimulated, to be worried, and to be bouncing from one extreme to the other.
[00:12:35] So my number four is Mother Earth is, is your greatest grounding advisor, all right? She's always going to support you in realigning in a way that is self loving for your highest good and the highest good of all.
[00:12:52] Okay, so number five, what does grounding do for your creativity in the energy sense? Well, I've talked in other episodes about this spherical app aspect and the spherical geometry. And a lot of people go, wow, crumbs. It's huge because it is the infinite geometry. So if you imagine that in your linear life, you're going to be sliding up and down a line, all right, you're going to be feeling about the now, of course, and working to be there, but you're also going to slide back into the past or slide into the future.
[00:13:31] And energy can only energize that dot that's sliding up and down the line.
[00:13:40] Now, when you become more grounded and say, hey, I am choosing my life, I'm not a victim of it, the outside world isn't pushing me around. But I do need to embrace the discipline to ground heart, mind and be now to understand what I truly want and to energize it.
[00:14:00] So when you do that, you begin to build your spherical geometry.
[00:14:06] Now, the spherical is literally a sphere or a bubble. And if you imagine yourself sitting in the middle of it, what you're giving yourself is not that line going up and down that dot. You're giving yourself a way, a geometry to receive in all directions simultaneously. Now, of course, that is really wow for your head, you know, for the mind being linear and logical. That is mind blowing, literally.
[00:14:35] But if you do want to energize your dreams, the spherical nature, if you're in your heart, you're in nature. You're quiet at home, you're in meditation. Creative visualization, whichever way you want to do gives you that beautiful and magical connection with the universe. So you're grounded because you're now, because you are present, and because you are in a space where literally whatever you want that's in your heart, you can receive unconditionally for yourself the energy flows that are required from the immaterial to turn into the physical and material experience of what you truly want.
[00:15:18] So being grounded isn't getting slapped or landing in a heap. If you do, it's because you needed to, because the greater universe is actually looking out for you and saying that amount of extreme wasn't healthy for you and it wasn't helping you.
[00:15:36] So believe in your capacity to work with groundedness, to align and to gain all of those beautiful fueling and ease and flow of your creativity because you chose to be grounded.
