What helps you feel really rooted in yourself and in your life and why? If I don't do any rituals in the morning, I'm unrooted and it only takes a day. So I need grounding. Any connection to earth, putting my feet on the ground. Laying on the ground is very important for me. Anything has to do with the elements. Sun, wind and cold does not work well with me. But as long as I have time to stop those thoughts that we all have. Breathing, meditating, definitely dancing. You know what's grounding for me? Even when I rap, I'll do some freestyle rap because it's grounded, because it's channeled. I'm not thinking about it. So anytime I'm turning off my mind and getting artistic or connecting to earth, that's the most grounding.
