The Beautiful & Touching Experience of Earthing

I took this picture of my feet while earthing out my back door last night. I like to go out in the backyard to ground every night. As long as there is no snow or ice, I still ground. I take a hot kettle off the wood stove and pour it over a spot just off the back porch to melt the frost and warm the earth where I am going to stand. It also makes it more conductive when the ground is wet, so I am actually grounding even more with doing that, so it serves two purposes. It also makes grounding in the winter a little easier to do.

Grounding or Earthing as some like to call it is such a beautiful experience. It feels wonderful and has so many healing benefits. I will write another blog post about those later. This post is about the enchanting experiences you can have in the dark of the night, in the stillness and the quiet, where inspiration can fill your soul.

This next part was written back in December, but upon re-reading it I decided that I wanted to share it on my blog. It was a beautiful and touching experience that I felt very deeply while grounding as the snow fell lightly over myself and the earth beneath my feet.

Last night after I took my salt bath, I stepped outside into the backyard barefoot in only a towel. I felt perfectly warm and comfortable. The snow was softly falling. It wasn't totally dark out because it was snowing. Instead there was a softness and misty essence to the world around me. It felt peaceful. There's a quiet stillness to the world when it's covered in snow that you don't experience any other time. I was feeling those things in that moment as I stepped onto the snow covered grass. I was feeling the tingle of the softly falling snow landing on my skin, caressing my body like a lovers touch. Feeling the twinge on my scalp as the snow landed on my hair, the gentle feel of it landing on my bare hands, arms, and face. I looked up towards the sky, eyes closed, with arms open wide, fully receiving this sweet touch from the heavens. My feet felt fully grounded in the soft nourishing earth below me. In that moment I could feel the full power of my feminine essence, flowing into me from mother earth and caressing me from the heavens above. Standing fully in my power, feeling completely safe and at ease in my own skin. Feeling the love that surrounded me, feeling the nurturing of the earth below me, and feeling so present and in the moment. It was beautiful. Moments like these don't happen all the time, I step outside after my bath most nights to ground and most of the time it's not like this. However there are times like this one where something meaningful and profound seems to happen in the darkness that feels beautiful and divine. It's the kind of moment I would love to share with another some day. The stillness, the gentle softness, the beauty, the magic. It really did feel magical in that moment, the kind of magic that happens when you are open to the seeing of it. I love it when the world reminds me of the magic it holds if only we are willing to look and be open to the receiving of it. And so it is.

Many blessing to you all as you continue on your own beautiful journeys.
