I've decided to take on meditation again to examine my fears and various diverse concerns fueling my paranoia and disturbance, as well as to take back up some balancing later on into my meditations.
After much...Deliberation and contemplation, I've realized that when I meditate, I naturally go a bit Out There somehow soneway as to produce some strange experiences. I have surmised that this is due to a lack of being Grounded. I'm high energy in mind, low in body, this isn't balanced, it'd seem I live in the clouds so to speak as my body struggles to handle this not easily synthesized form of mental/emotional energy.
There, see, I'm doing it again, intellectualizing, in a meditation these things become sensations that escape my comfort and produce issues.
It is possibly just a giant imbalance of general usage of energy.
So I don't really understand grounding or how it works or why or what produces the effect, or what the effect even is.
To me I have used grounding as a sort of sanity stabilizer, I think I know that all I know is nothing, so as to return from the crazy out there metaphysics my mind gets caught up in sometimes. It feels like moving from the sky to the ground to rest the wings of my mind.
But this is only my very uninformed usage of such a concept.
I use things much more efficaciously when I understand their function and How that function operates.
So, if anyone has any wisdom or advice to share on Grounding, please please don't withhold it.
I'd make a joke about not wanting to be 6 feet under, but really I just want a special place inside my mind to go to rest when such suicidal feelings come around. A place to begin healing work. To sit in silence rather than pain.
