Plant Yourself in the Moment

Grounding yourself into the present moment is an essential part of being truly happy. When you’re feeling stressed or out of focus, picture in your mind a large, old tree and repeat this mantra: Being firmly grounded into my body offers me peace. See the tree’s strong root system and flexible branches. Picture its peacefulness and the nourishment it brings to its environment.

You are no different than this tree. You also have a strong root system, capable of providing security and peace. When using this mantra, soften your solar plexus (navel area) and when you exhale, imagine directing your energy out through your legs into the ground. Allow this mantra to support your energy by grounding it into the earth through this tree visualization.
