"Grounding is caring for the tender, human being that is you so that you can thrive. It includes self-care, structure (loving boundaries), rhythms and routines.
If you were to plant a garden, you would give it water, nourishing soil, some compost or fertilizer, sunlight and fresh air. This is self-care.
You may keep the plants in a greenhouse when the weather’s cold. Or you may put a cage around a tomato to help it grow. This is structure. You would water your garden, rake and weed at regular intervals. This is routine.
You would appreciate that your garden goes through cycles of growth, rest, and harvest. This is rhythm.
These facets work together to grow a healthy garden. They work together to grow you, as well."
