Earthing: When Life Feels Heavy

Self-proclaimed earthing week

Hello there.

I am hearing the term “earthing” coming up now and then and I am remembered of a practice that I discovered one time when life felt so very heavy.

Every task seemed impossible.

My limbs felt heavy and my heart was hiding under a thick blanket of fog.

I wasn’t sure what the future would be because the present felt impossible.

I’m not sure if it was intuitive. Probably, but I started waking up and watching the sunrise.

Everyday.

I was a little obsessed as I would keep my eyes peeled Eastward until the faint light transformed into the burning ball.

The source.

My source.

I started reading inspirational texts.

The Power of Truth (William Jordan)

Man’s Search For Meaning (Victor Frankl)

The Bible and other scriptural text

And I wrote.

At first I had to rely on others’ thoughts and interpretations.

But then, after many sunrises, I was able to find my own voice again.

And life was never the same for me and that was good.

Every once in awhile I am prompted to return to earthing.

And then I wonder why I ever left?

Happy self-proclaimed earthing week my friends!

This round I am adding bare feet on the earth as well as sunset viewing.
