Grounding

This last Sunday, our community decided to start using our blog in a new way. We’re going to use it for discussion and reflection with the whole community. It was pointed out that we talk about some big questions at the Sunday gatherings, and that it’s not enough time to reflect and digest the questions. So we’ll use the blog to do just that. Everyone is welcome and encouraged to respond.

One of the things that came up at our meeting was how a “grounding” exercise is really important to start our celebration gatherings. That led to a couple questions: What do you do to ground yourself? and then a more basic question: What is “grounding”?

So these are the questions I’m going to throw out today, answer any or all of the ones you’d like to: What does it mean to be grounded? What do you do to ground yourself? Why do you looked to ground yourself? What does it have to do with your faith? With justice work?

Have at it!
