Meditation Practice: Grounding Through the 5 Senses

Grounding practices allow us to touch into safety, stability, and connection and teach us to anchor into presence. This 10 minute meditation practice offers a simple yet powerful way to embody the moment, through the 5 senses, helping the nervous system to settle and the mind to rest. Grounding through the senses helps us to move out of the mind and become receptive to the current experience of the outer world through the body. This meditation is especially helpful during times of stress, transition, or overwhelm and offers a gentle and compassionate pathway back home to yourself. Try this as a formal meditation, or take this mindfulness tool with you to use whenever you need grounding throughout your day.
