Our lives are hectic as it is. Each of us are confronted with a fair share of joys and pains, victories and adversities, successes and struggles, as well as wins and losses. And more often than not, we are preoccupied because of these things. We become stressed and are pressured by what life has to offer. But that’s okay.

No matter what life throws at us, the very core of living is to not forget to take care of ourselves and breathe. We should always remember that it’s okay to take time for relaxation, to unwind, and to take a break from everything that’s pressing.

Since wellness plays a huge part in taking care of one’s self, an in-demand approach to this is the practice called “grounding” or “earthing”. It is an act of reconnecting yourself to the earth through walking barefoot on the grass, a swim in the ocean, or anything that puts you in contact with nature. In doing so, you will help your body to become like a sponge in absorbing negatively-charged electrons from the earth – a supply of neutralising antioxidant essential for health preservation. According to www.fibrofix.com, “All our cells are made of atoms. Atoms possess unique positive and negative charges that are based on the number of negative electrons or positive protons they carry. Many healthy atoms have a negative charge because they possess more electrons; however, these atoms can have electrons “stolen” from them, leaving them highly reactive and damaging. In this state, they are called free radicals. As damaging free radicals infiltrate cells and tissues, our health declines. The only way to stop this destructive process is by supplying the body with neutralising antioxidants or a large dose of negative electrons, through grounding.” This has been practiced for a long time when our ancestors in the past walked in bare feet connecting it to their long-lived lifespans, good health, endurance, and excellent stamina.

Meditation is also one way to become grounded – imagine yourself standing, closing your eyes and visualising roots coming from your feet and drilling into the ground, breathing deeply, and with every exhale you push out all the tension in your body, pains, or aches and anything that’s keeping you away from where you really came from. It relaxes you, it sets you free, and it gives you a punch of emotional release. A chakra dance meditation could also help in unravelling blocked energies from your body and brings you back to your authentic self.

It’s great to practise grounding each day as this will help enhance your happiness and mental health.

At the moment we are taking bookings for our Teen Girls Circle for females ages 14-17 years to come together, use their voices, be heard and be seen. At the end of this wonderful experience, we aim to provide to these teen girls a sense of empowerment and a true sense of who they are as well as what their values and beliefs are.

Remember, happiness comes from within and you are the one who is responsible for your own. 😊
