Grounding tips for mediums

Hi Lil Mystic,

A dj on the radio this morning said “I hope we don't celebrate April Fools this year, because waking up to the headlines every morning is wrecking my nervous system enough.” 

It was kind of wild, for me at least, to hear a dj on a local radio station talk about how heinous and disregulating it is to be alive and aware right now. The United States has always been a problem, from it's inception, of course. Having it live streamed onto our devices while we experience it IRL is… a lot. Hearing a local radio dj talk about this, during a time where censorship continues to escalate was, idk, kind of comforting?? Little risks people with platforms can take to show us that we are not alone, that this is not normal, idk, it's nice to remember that you aren't the only one feeling overwhelmed by…everything gestures wildly around.

Whether you are an established medium or in the midst of a spiritual awakening, your personal overwhelm can be amplified by all of the feelings & thoughts of others around you - in the workplace, at the super market, on the internet. 

When we are taking on everyone's emotions, it can be difficult to have the capacity to show up for ourselves and for our communities the ways that we know we are called to & able to.

Starting my day with a grounding ritual rrrrreally helps me with managing myself better, so that I can acknowledge what's happening in the world around me, without letting it stop me from taking the actions I can each day.

A few grounding tips for mediums: 

📍 three red cords, braided and fastened around your left ankle. 

🌎 touch your crown to the ground: ask Mother Earth to send her your nourishment thru this connection. 

🌿 touch your bare feet to the earth for a few minutes 

🪴 sit with your plants. Speak to them, sing to them, lovingly touch them. 

👁️‍🗨️ while sitting, visualize a connection between the center of the earth to your body. this connection is weighted, and keeps you tethered to the present, while also pouring the Earth’s energy into you 

🌳 visualize roots unfurling from your spine. These roots plunge into the soil, and spread, touching the roots of other trees, mingling with the mycelium networks, receiving nutrients from the soil

This isn't a comprehensive list, but it will at least get you started, get you inspired in taking the steps to care for yourself so that you are able to navigate through and participate in this life.

The world needs you, little mystic. 

All my love,

Mami 🌹
