Awakening Management: When Awakening Makes You Feel Ungrounded
Have you been feeling anxious, scattered, dizzy, floaty or disconnected from your body lately? Maybe your thoughts are disorganised or your speech frequently gets jumbled. Perhaps you simply feel inexplicably ‘unsafe’ in your body with no real apparent reason.
If this sounds familiar, your energies are ungrounded.
When we’re talking about the most common symptoms of a spiritual awakening, this one is the winner.
And if you’re nodding your head as you recognise these signs within yourself, I want to reassure you that it’s not your fault – this is an entirely natural, and necessary, side effect of the spiritual awakening process, that thankfully, you don’t have to put up with.
In this Awakening Management Guide, I’m going to explain why ungroundedness inevitably happens in our spiritual awakening transformation, why it doesn’t need to be that way, and give some helpful tips on what you can do to anchor your energy back down to earth and feel safe, secure and stabilised once more.
The Mechanics Of Spiritual Awakening Ungroundedness
I’m going to let you in on a wee secret…
Becoming ungrounded is absolutely unavoidable in your spiritual awakening (at first).
That’s because the entire spiritual awakening process is catalysed by an influx of seriously high vibrational energy that floods your system. This immediately does a couple of key things that we need in order to awaken:
It opens the 7 major chakras
Yep, every single chakra from Root to Crown becomes fully activated in an instant. This causes us to be acutely more spiritually attuned, practically overnight. It helps us to fully connect to Source (which is the ultimate aim of enlightenment) but it also takes us up too high, too fast, before our bodies or minds can handle it, and the newfound awareness of floating so high gives us a sense of being disconnected from the body.
It attempts to dissolve all blocks to universal connection
As our chakras fully open (more than they ever have before) to assist us in an uninterrupted universal connection, so too do all the emotional issues that were clogging up the chakras. This is why ungroundedness tends to cause emotions to shift suddenly and erratically as these blocks arise to the surface of our awareness to be felt and released, unblocking any limiters to our divine spiritual connection.
Signs You’re Ungrounded In Your Spiritual Awakening
But, there’s a problem – it causes a whole host of nasty spiritual awakening signs and symptoms that make our awakening experiences far more difficult and challenging to deal with. Have a look and see if any of these sound familiar:
- Brain fog or mental confusion
- Clumsiness (bumping into things, dropping items etc)
- Feeling extremely anxious or panicked (even if nothing is wrong!)
- Frequent spacing out or staring into space
- A sense of being unplugged from Source
How To Reground Urgently
When you can’t get grounded and you’re in the middle of a symptom flare up, you need to ground your energies and you need to do it now.
Here are the fastest methods of grounding your energies when this strikes in the moment:
1️⃣ Eat something.
Ungroundedness (and the panic and anxiety that often accompanies it) are notorious for causing blood sugar dips. Eat something now. If you have it in you to prepare a heavy meal, go for it. If it’s all too much and its feeling urgent, a snack with a little sugar in it will help turn the tide quickly.
2️⃣ Create a somatic shift (move your body).
The best way to bring your energy back into the body is to focus on it – think of it like a soul-kinetic flow. As you focus on movements like gentle stretching for example, your consciousness is drawn to awareness of the 3D, pulling the energy back into the physical body.
3️⃣ Switch off stimulants
Take a break from screens and put your phone on silent, switch the tv off and do something calming (ideally that doesn’t involve technology). The constant bombardment of absorbing information or content (even if it’s enjoyable) adds to the strain of a system that’s already maxed out, absorbing all the energies surrounding it. Here are some healthy practices that will actively undo over-stimulation:
- Journalling can help process some of the emotional shifts.
- A salt bath can help soothe and relax the body.
- Walking in nature brings focus to the senses and anchors back into the 3D.
4️⃣ Co-regulate with grounded connections
Contrary to the initial impulse to withdraw and hermit in spiritual awakening, being around others who are feeling calm, steady and stable is a powerful anchor. As your natural rapport with this person syncs to match their energy, you’ll feel comforted and safe, and find that your nervous system starts to calm down, mirroring the other person’s grounded state.
Energy Adjustment: Your Next Step
Physical 3D anchoring is the best emergency go-to when ungroundedness gets out of hand, but if we’re honest, its not a long term solution, simply because it can’t address the root of the problem.
Your energies are struggling to handle the high frequency vibrations of spiritual awakening.
And there are two options to deal with this…
1️⃣ Keep using ‘band aid’ style techniques, like trying to find the ‘right’ grounding crystal, or being obligated to have salt baths that take hours everyday just to anchor your energies or provide relief (only to have to repeat it all again tomorrow just to be ‘okay’).
2️⃣ Actively teach your energies how to manage the frequencies of awakening so that they know how to stay grounded while still spiritually awakening (and without all the messy intense symptoms!).
To support you in relieving ungroundedness on your journey, while reducing symptoms and training your system to know how to integrate these high frequency vibrations with ease, I created an emergency, standalone resource that you can use not only when ungroundedness strikes, but to teach your energies how to easily cope with awakening and continue to increase the ease of your journey as you move forward.
The Mother Earth Grounding Meditation is a 20 minute guided meditation track, blended with structured energy healing to take your soul by the hand and lead it through the awakening chaos and back to grounded safety.
You’ll feel it pull your scattered energies back into your body fully, reduce awakening sensitivity and help you feel secure and calm. It’s the perfect way to stop the spiralling.
If your energies are calling out for help today, take a wee look at this spiritually supportive resource and see if it resonates with you.
