What Might You Want to Know about Me?

Rose Rosetree’s credentials to write this article include:

I’m the founder of Energy Spirituality®, which helps people to solve problems using energy skills that work now, in the Age of Awakening.

To date I’ve facilitated over 40,000 personal sessions. Most of these sessions have included some skills of Energy Spirituality ENERGY HEALING.

Energy Spirituality is not a religion. It’s not even a path. My goal is to supplement what you’re doing as you aim to progress along your own path.

My everyday skills include good quality Energetic Literacy, for very accurate aura reading of chakra databanks. I can teach you skills for quality aura reading. Would love to!

However, I can’t teach you this last skill on my list of credentials for writing this particular article: Serving as a consciousness engineer. Could be, I’ve learned how to do this mostly during many earlier lifetimes. Anyway, this aspect of consciousness engineering will definitely inform today’s article.

Full Disclosure

Blog-Buddies, what if you’re Grounding yourself daily?  I won’t encourage that part of your path. Of course, you’ll still do what you like.

As you may have noticed by now about choices made by other people you know, hello! Sometimes a person’s cherished path includes a cure that is worse than the disease. This I believe to be true about Grounding practices. On rare occasions — and this article is one of them — I may encourage you to consider letting go, when a part of your personal path may have already served its purpose, etc. Your chosen path will then work better than it used to.

Why Do So Many People Swear by Grounding?

Seriously, they do. How many hits right now on my Google for:

Grounding 

90.9 MILLION hits.

Grounding My Energies

22 MILLION hits

Grounding and Shielding

11 MILLION hits

Grounding for Protection 

723 MILLION hits

Pretty important topic then, this grounding idea. Don’t you think? Especially since people are subconsciously influenced by Collective Consciousness. When a search term has even 1 THOUSAND hits, it can become pretty darned influential.

Now Let’s Take a Historical Look at So-Called “Grounding”

The natural, normal way to have a human body is . . . to have that body. That physical body allows you to have a human incarnation here at Earth School. Part of the deal!

It’s no coincidence that Grounding practices became common, even faddish, during the New Age Years. That is, from 1980 until the Shift on Dec. 21, 2012. During those intense years, spiritual awakening began to stir — at least for spiritual seekers, for seekers of truth. Back in the day:

• Anybody who wasn’t already energy sensitive,
• And who wished to become energy sensitive,
• Did become energy sensitive.

Awkwardness ensued. People became slightly trippy, high on noticing life at Astral Vibrational Frequencies — i.e., Energy. Ironically, the result was to become more confused about their own bodies. As if they weren’t real enough, not there enough. Those bodies designed to exist at Human Vibrational Frequencies.

Then, and now, Grounding became a solution to being spaced out. (Supposedly, a solution.)

And yes, good skills of energetic literacy make it possible to pinpoint terms like “being spaced out.” Plus, discerning whether consciousness is positioned at a Human or Astral Vibrational Frequency, or The Divine Vibrational Frequency.

Maybe the Best Part of Today’s Article . . .

A bit later in this article, I’ll be researching two very different Grounding experts. And three different ways their beloved Grounding work has had an impact upon each of them. Soon I’ll use energetic literacy skills to explore what’s happening at the level of their chakra databanks.

Before then, let’s turn to what happens in consciousness, generally, when somebody tries Grounding.

What’s the Biggest Problem with Grounding Practices?

Here comes my assessment as a consciousness engineer. Let’s use the example of Hypothetical Sam.

Sam aims to enjoy all the alleged benefits of Grounding. Helping him to feel calmer, and even like somebody who lives on Earth. Developing a calmness that protects him from “bad energies.”

Doing his Grounding practice, does Sam use a shovel? No, he uses his consciousness.

Whatever the specifics of the particular Grounding technique he uses, he is doing that with his consciousness, his awareness. In short, he is doing Spiritual Technique Time. Whether he knows it or not.

It can be quite easy to do more of this Technique Time than the well-researched recommendation from Energy Spirituality:

To evolve fastest spiritually and grow most rapidly emotionally,

Now that we’re all living in the Age of Awakening,

Do 20 Minutes Daily of Spiritual Technique Time. Neither more nor less.

Doing far more than 20 Daily Minutes, Sam spaces out more. Exactly the opposite of the alleged benefits of Grounding. Sadly, the more spaced out he becomes, the more often he feels the need to Ground himself.

Ever Use a Cosmetic Product That Builds in Dependency?

Blog-Buddies, suppose that your lips are a little chapped. So you apply a product called Fabulous Lip Fixer. It has an immediate soothing effect.

However, this product is also slightly irritating to your lips.

No wonder you find yourself carrying your Fabulous Lip Fixer with you and re-applying it all your waking hours. You need this help “so much.” (Maybe you also blame your lips for healing so slowly?) And now, back to Grounding.

Overview

How We’ll Explore What Some Grounding Experts Offer

First, I’ll summarize the expert’s approach to Grounding. AKA “Earthing”.

This I’ll critique as a consciousness engineer.

Next, I’ll research three related chakra databanks, using a screenshot from a video by that expert.

Which Chakra Databanks, Exactly? Introductions Follow.

Important to keep in mind: Info in chakra databanks is not conscious for person who has that chakra databank. Rather, the information is subconscious and energetic.

Of course, people do not consciously know about their subconscious information. That’s where Stage 3 Energetic Literacy comes in.

Root Chakra Databank for Connection to Objective Reality

In the language of chakra databanks, the purpose of Grounding is to improve how a person connects to everyday human reality. AKA, reality at Human Vibrational Frequencies. To many who pursue Grounding, the purpose is spiritual. Or it may be energetic. Although not necessarily, as will become clear in researching both of our experts.

Throat Chakra Databank for Verbal Integrity

Seems to me that a person who is making excellent contact with objective reality has an advantage for speaking the truth. Make sense to you?

Third Eye Chakra Databank for Connection to Spiritual Source

If Grounding is really as important as many folks suppose, wouldn’t it help a person’s relationship with God?

Okay, let’s start exploring. Since imo GROUNDING Yourself Is a Waste of Your Time. Nevertheless, I’ll put my views aside while aura-researching these two experts.

GROUNDING Yourself Is a Waste of Your Time.

Grounding Expert #1. Dr. Houlihan

Essence of Dr. Houlihan’s Technique

“Standing outside.” Literally, placing your body not indoors but outdoors.

Rose Rosetree Weighs in on the Mechanics of this Technique

It’s hard to see how standing outdoors can — as Dr. Houlihan claims — produce Grounding. And then, as he claims further, reduce blood pressure, vanquish stress, decrease inflammation in the body, etc.

Although Houlihan insists that his claims have been scientifically validated, I’m skeptical. By his logic, are all manual laborers, like migrant workers, who work outdoors picking seasonal fruit, outstandingly healthy?

On the positive side, at least this Grounding technique does not involve doing anything with your consciousness. Therefore, it won’t count for any of your 20 Daily Minutes of Spiritual Technique Time.

Now let’s see what Dr. Houlihan’s chakra databanks reveal about the consequences for him, personally, of his method for Grounding.Dr. Houlihan’s Root Chakra Databank for

Connection to Objective Reality

SYMBOLIC SIZE

4 feet. (Very under-functioning)

QUALITY

He connects to regular life like a theorist, more than like a warm-blooded human living in a physical body. Rather than noticing what exists, in physical reality, guess what? He engages more with his theories about life, as though they make objective reality interesting — which otherwise ordinary life is NOT.

Verbal Integrity

SYMBOLIC SIZE

3 inches. (Very close to complete shutdown, at the time of this video)

QUALITY

Dr. Houlihan has a very high opinion of himself. His intent in making this video is manipulative, aiming to get a lot of viewers. Definitely aiming for such things, rather than to tell viewers the truth about his topic. To be of service to viewers. Etc.

“I am God” Evidently there’s nothing left for Dr. Houlihan to learn or do. Other than to be himself, that is.

Your reactions, anyone?

Grounding Expert #2. Psychologist Emma McAdam

Ms. McAdam notices only enough about objective reality to launch herself into theory. During her waking hours, she repeats this cycle again and again: Notice quickly, theorize extensively.

What is the truth, anyway? Emma doesn’t believe in that.

She speaks her truth, which enhances her self-esteem.

ROSE ROSTREE COMMENTS

This chakra databank is designed to be about a human adult’s capacity to speak with integrity.

Seems to me, it’s significant that Emma values enhancing her self-worth and self-esteem. Values this far more than what might be called, “Speaking in a way that is factually accurate.”

What matters to her, subconsciously and energetically, is that she expresses her truth. And she refuses to let anybody shame her into feeling bad about that, when she deserves to have high self-esteem.

Emma is saved. She knows that she is saved.

Now she has nothing more to learn or do until she wakes up in Heaven.

Your reactions, anyone?

In Conclusion

GROUNDING Yourself Is WORSE than a Waste of Your Time.

These techniques vary wildly, as in the two examples furnished here. In general, Grounding usually counts as Spiritual Technique Time.

• One consequence is how Grounding distracts you from paying attention to reality.
• Besides that, Grounding enthusiasts may develop a self-conscious over use of awareness, growing increasingly detached. Becoming spaced out. Feeling the need for more and more Grounding.

As a spiritual teacher who helps her students to use their full potential in life, I never teach any Grounding exercises. Yet I have succeeded in helping clients to move into Spiritual Enlightenment. Go figure!
