Grounding

From Holistic Healing Definitions, for About.com

Definition:

Grounding is a process that helps the body to connect to earth energies via its root chakra. Because we are first and foremost spiritual beings the physical body sometimes gets neglected. It is important to respect and care for the "container" that houses our spirit during our incarnate lifetime. Grounding is typically done through visualization or vibrational exercises. A common visualization is to imagine your feet growing roots and anchoring them deeply and securing into the earth.
