    Also, so sorry for not putting Patron names in the endscreen, I need to get into the habit or doing it, and completely forgot for this video, they will be back in the end of the next video xx

    Something that may help people who can't visualize might be also to use another sense. I'm not sure if this is connected but I have psychic abilities but I *feel* things rather than see them. So when I'm working with energy, I can't see it and I struggle to visualize energy, but I can feel it 100%. It's like a pulsating, wavy feeling. Like the pulse feeling is from the crest of the wave passing a certain point. (I struggled to feel crystals at first, btw, but I find that the ones that connect with me have the same wavy pulse feeling, but different crystals have different wavelengths.)
    Sorry for the rambling, but it might help someone idk

      You are not alone dear, I sense the energy by the feeling too... My energy is usually like a heatwave, and some people can really sense it as my brother did. But earth energy for me is more refreshing, cool but not cold, and also vibrates.

      Thank you so much for this! I remember going through shamanic journeys and people tell me all about these grade visions that they have and I just remember not being able to visualize anything, but becoming one with the drum and I felt my body pulsate with every hit and then since it was a group of people I felt the energy waves of everybody as they were journeying and it felt like I was kind of almost floating in the water and through the water and I felt just the energy of everybody, but I felt kind of weird explaining it this way because everybody had these amazing dreams and I felt things and then heard things. I just have those senses connected with the hearing in the textures.

    It may be easier to visualize the energy going down through the tailbone, rather than splitting the energy to go down each leg. I leaned this through a guided chakra meditation.

    • @sarahu.38

      @BansheeBeatzz that's fantastic you are so in tune with your energy to know what feels most grounded for you. Been studying vedic astrology and the connection between signs, planets and chakras and where they connect to the body. Interestingly, these comments align with vedic spirituality in that the root chakra is where we find our grounding point and it correlates to the planet Saturn (structure & security etc) Meanwhile, the feet are associated with the sign of Pisces which is basically the opposite of grounded. I suppose that's why walking on bare earth is helpful.
      Feeling grounded and secure requires focus on the ROOT chakra (which is balanced and centered in the body) it would just become lost to channel energy out through the feet (Pisces can correlate with losses due to its association with the 12th House in a birth chart.)
      Thanks for sharing these insights. It's helpful to me to know what's accurate when it is a repeating theme through a variety of practices.
      Many ppl associate mars with the root chakra, just because of the color red. But if you look at s SUNSET: it goes from red nearest to the earth on up through all the colors of the chakras, which are akin to the human body as well ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜💗🙏😘😘

    This may sound weird, but when I was younger and exploring with meditation and visualization, I came up with the tree roots connecting to the earth and getting peace from the earth, but I also went the other way with the branches and leaves, as my tree of light reached all the way up into the universe. Like how trees use their leaves to absorb sunlight, I would use mine to get peace from the universe too. Now I can't wait to try this old method with a new perspective on energy! Also cool to think about in addition to the roots is the mycorrhiza network that lets all the different plants talk to eachother and share info by literally exchanging energy! Magic is just science that hasn't been proven yet!

  • @sarahu.38
    @sarahu.38 4 года назад +42

    I love your explanation for centering, Hearth! My energy centers in my solar plexus! As for my grounding technique (in case it's helpful for beginners to read another sort of visualization), I find it most effective to send down a single grounding cord versus roots or tendrils. I send the cord alllll the way down to the earth's core. And that single grounding cord acts almost like an umbilical cord between me and the earth. It is hollow/tubular, allowing the earth's energy to come up while also allowing me to send down any excess energy, negative thoughts, self-doubt, etc., where it can be neutralized and dissipated by the earth. And most times when I'm done with my working, instead of drawing the cord back up to myself, I'll simply snap it off and, again, allow it to be dissolved into the earth's energy.

    This was the easiest and kindest instruction on grounding and centering that I’ve come across! In my own journey, there seems to be so much negativity online when trying learn why something is going on with me after spell work. People are so quick to say “you’re doing it wrong” and “you’re not grounding” without actually telling you how or why to ground. This was so helpful!! Thank you!💕

    I can center, I can just feel it, although I did my first spell bottle before I learned to ground. I remember being a little tired and then just snacking on Hershey Kisses, going to sleep, and waking up fine. I still can't ground, but I'm trying...
    I can't visualize anything in the first person. It's incredibly difficult, and feels like a virtual reality where everything is slightly out of proportion. However, if I picture myself in the third person, as if it were a movie, it's easy. That's how I figured out centering, and that's how most of my memories are. As an only child with too much screen time, there's usually different angles and background music because that's how my brain works, but it can help me focus sometimes.
    For me, when I center, I see my energy like blue sparkles, probably because blue is my favorite color. It always goes right in my chest, that's where I feel most things. It's not hot or cold, just a comforting cool, like what I feel all around me when I swim. When I see it in my head, it's swirling around itself and spinning.
    And... Okay, thank goodness, I wanted to figure out grounding but the closest earth is my backyard and everything is dead, and if I spend too long in the park outside, my parents will get suspicious.
    I have tried grounding before in the park, (which is how I know they get suspicious,) and for some reason, I felt horrible picturing roots. It made me want to cry and it made me uncomfortable. I've seen anxiety grounding techniques, and tried those, and they feel extremely helpful, but I know that it's different. I had to do some anxiety grounding to stop myself from panicking while normal grounding.
    Could I picture a hollow anchor? Like, a ship's anchor? Because, I can just imagine it hooking into the ground and then the hollow cord pulling up the energy... But anchors are generally man-made, so does that mean it wouldn't work that way?

    • @BriannaZumbro
      @BriannaZumbro 4 года назад +5

      I would think that if the anchor feels good to you, then it should work! Definitely don't make yourself picture roots if it makes you uncomfortable. Everyone is different, and grounding is an intensely personal thing, so it is going to be different for everyone. Whatever is most comfortable for you is probably what will end up working the best.

      I visualize in the 3rd person as well. When I meditate I visualize like I’m in myself but I can’t hold it for long periods of time. I do crystal layouts on my body and like to meditate for about 45 min. So I go back and forth. I picture I’m in myself and then I go outside like I’m standing next to me watching the scene, then back to picturing it from inside myself. It’s the only way I can hold my focus on the meditation for that long without letting other thoughts come in. I thought I was the only one that did that, lol.

    I just tried the centering exercise. I really thought I would feel the energy as tingling because when I picked up my pendulum for the first time, I felt my hand tingle. But it actually felt very "smooth" and warm, and it all gathered straight in the heart chakra area. I am not surprised by this though 'cause everytime I cleanse my crystals I feel a rush of energy in my heart chakra area. So strange and awesome at the same time! 😃

Some of these things I had been doing intuitively since I was a very young child, and never had a name for it. And for a long time I felt like I couldn't rightly call myself what I felt I was, just because I wasn't regularly doing and practicing more of what I thought was proper spellwork/ritual. Thanks to your explanations of the roles visualization and energy work has, I don't feel like legitimacy is taken away from my practice just because I don't usually do certain things. I hope this makes sense lol. Anyways thank you Hearth for all of your knowledge and dedication, I always enjoy your videos.

    This sounds very similar to the Middle Pillar mixed with the Qabalistic Cross meditation/visualization exercises. It has helped me immensely with visualizing and lucid dreaming. I wasn't aware of centering or grounding before doing the middle pillar. Unknowingly I was doing both those things for a couple months before I discovered what I was actually doing. Once I started to incorporate the Qabalistic Cross immediately after the Middle Pillar, it's undeniable the amount of energy you can pull in after a few months of practice. I usually did this right before sleep while laying in bed. I wouldn't really suggest this unless you are trying to work on lucid dreaming, cause holy shit. You are laying in bed with all that energy you have pulled in and go right to sleep. It's like pouring gasoline on your dreams and lighting it with a flamethrower. At least for me it was, can't speak for everyone. I have since moved this practice to my altar and only do it in bed if I am trying to do something specific.
    By the way, your channel is the best on this subject I've found. Extremely informative and doesn't feel like you're trying to sell me anything. Strictly just trying to teach. I bookmark a lot of videos for future research and practice, keep up the great work!

    I used to have problems with centering & grounding, but one of the accidental tools that was most helpful comes from a science fiction short story from the 1940s(?) involving a human "gladiator" grounding & centering before doing battle in an alien arena. I start with the air above me giving life, move down to the ground beneath my feet giving me support and stability, then "dive" through the layers of stone beneath the ground giving me strength, ending by drawing energy from the molten core which I then carry back up to the surface, gathering further strength, support, and life force as I come back "up" from the deep dive.

    Yes! Hi, I start learning about witchcraft and watching your videos recently. When I watch the one with enegry manipulation, I know that I use it earlier. Now it make sense. I dont know where it came from but I learn it from an empath/heyoka channel. And learn from grounding from an guided meditation. So, maybe it is a meditation or east culture teaching. I also learn from there a thing called "Energy Shield" for empaths. İts like when you visualize your energy, make it bigger like outside of your body or like visualize your enegry like a big ball and your body in the center of it. İt always help me feel good about all the emotions at the parties, gatherings ect. I don't know it is a healty thing to use your energy like that but, yeah its usefull for fellow empaths. Also, I like everything about you and your channel so thank you for that. Have a nice day to all!

    Well there is also a scientific experiment shows that grounding is better when you are touching your feet on the ground (it doesn't mean you are not energetic connecting with the ground, you are) but the connection becomes stronger when you just touching the ground with your barefoot. - There was a crazy difference between the measurements- Advice FROM ME (your choice): come closer to nature touching with your fingers a tree, a plant, sit in the ground (like doing a picnic), even dancing! If you can ground with someone that can express you and come natural to you! Remember is YOUR connection with earth, you different from other people because and is better barefoot because of many psychological and others reason! (I can't write them all :)

    I'm realizing something as I watch this. The first practice was something I discovered on my own about 5 or 6 odd years ago now. Without knowledge of any of this either. I figured out the same process as well. I was very skeptical of all of this, but thought I may as well look into it a little and see if this as a whole is something I resonate with. And now I have an explanation for the warm static feeling I've been playing around with for years.

    Not being able to visualizie is called Aphantasia. I have it. I am so happy you give an alternative to visualisation. Thank you. Many do not

  • @BlueGangsta1958
    @BlueGangsta1958 3 года назад

    6:37 Thanks for going into the alternatives to visualization. It can get really demotivating for someone with the inability to visualize (Aphantasia) to watch videos about meditation and energy manipulation and the like because you're always supposed to somehow have an image within your head and all you get is blackness.

    Thank You HearthWitch mutch appreciated. While you were talking about “energy” it made me think of this - Can you produce and or feel your chi (qi) in your body? If yes, how much in control are you of it? Can you make it move around your body? Can you make it pulse from your centre outwards? Can you make it pulse in certain parts of your body (foot elbow forehead etc) I wonder is Chi the “energy” in your body you talk about and or part of the same thing? -
    The reason why I ask is because all my life I have been able to do everything I have just described above. As a child I would sit in class playing with this small ball of energy in my body. I remember being board in class looking out of the window day dreaming while moving this strange woozy magnetic feeling around my body. I can make it turn on and be a constant feeling/buzz all over myself or I can make it pulse in specific areas of my body. It becomes strongly uncomfortable when I intensify the feeling. As a child I thought everybody could do this and so never questioned it until later in life.
    Later in life I found out the feeling I have is my Chi and apparently I have excellent control of it. I was told that some folk go to esoteric schools for years to learn how to control it. They learn for years what I can do effortlessly and naturally.
    I still do not know what to do with this feeling/skill. I may be a good healer but do not know how to channel what I have got effectively.
    I am a work in progress. :)

But your videos are opening up a whole new dimension of practice. Thank you so much!! I will work on the beginners techniques you've described. I look forward to watching your other videos as I am formed and mature in these particular practices.

    I believe that this form of meditation came from the Buddhist monks. Some came to my school feom Tibet and they had a meditation circle with some of us and i was one of the ones who did it and they taught us this way. And they said if you have a hard time visualizing roots, especially for beginners is to go to a tree and put your back to it or have any part of you touching it and connect with the trees energy cause their roots already go into to earth so follow them and then from there try to push your energy past their actually roots.
    Also Hearth one of the reasons your energy comes from your stomch or collects there is because thats where your chi is which is the collective of life energy
    Also instead of seeing dots i see mine as an actual cord that's wrapped around me. And usually is a copper color then then it goes through my crown chakra and thwn travels down to connect to the earth. Just sharing my experience lol

    That feeling of being "lifted off by faeries" as you described (particularly in crowds) is one I deal with now and again, so it's not just you! Grounding does help tons, and that tip about hematite is something I'll have to try.

  • @ScottAndScarlettsDarkHumor

  • @wompusslompus5424
    @wompusslompus5424 4 года назад +1

    As an actor this is extremely helpful! I always thought of grounding as spreading my feet hip-width apart and unlocking my knees, but those things never really seemed to achieve the desired effect my teachers were describing. This makes so much more sense now, about the give and take, and to visualize deeper, not just the contact area of my feet touching the surface of...well, the surface. I was always confused about how to pull energy up too, I think because I was making a surface connection to begin with. Thanks Hearth for illuminating something I struggled with for YEARS!!!

    I have never tried visualizing my own energy, but after watching this, I tried it and I was immediately able to visualize these green, glowing firefly-like orbs. And I can see that I don't have very much surrounding my body. I'm sick and have really low energy so that makes sense lol.

  • @j_soline

    When I tried it, I felt a lot of tingling in the front of my forearms (this was when they were crossed). Then I tried grounding while laying in bed, I feel a “lifting” feeling near my diaphragm. I thought it was super cool considering this was my first time trying this!

  • @HeribertoRangelM

    This is similar to the Middle pilar ritual used by the Golden Down, and probably influenced by the "energy work" (Chee-kung) in taoist internal alquemy practices.

    @The_Lonely_Texas_Pagan Год назад

    This gave me good chills. I have for a long time used a personal meditation to dull or remove pain from injuries, toothaches, headaches, etc. I look inward and picture my core as a ball of energy and once it is gathered I wrap the pain in layers of energy until I am either out of energy or the pain is gone. I never thought about what I was doing until now.

    It's interesting to understand what I've been doing for years without actually knowing what I was doing. Often at work, when I am feeling too wired to focus on the job, I go to the toilet, lock myself in, center myself, form an energy ball and let that go to the earth. I feel so much better afterwards. And it all happens in a couple of minutes. I've been doing this for years, because it just made sense.

    My goodness, the "being carried away by fairies" sensation resonated with me. I used to have that feeling a lot when I was a very young child living with my mother in our flat in London. I would be so afraid of it I had to physically cling to my mother or to the wooden armrest of the couch because I thought I would be lifted away forever. I haven't had quite the same intensity of experience for a very long time, but I'll bear this technique in mind should it ever happen again!

    I was just thinking how I must be doing it wrong even though I’m a good at visualization because I started to feel like I was being pulled away or floating in a not good way. Started to feel a bit nauseous and dizzy. I’m in a room that I think has a lot of mixed energy and needs to be cleansed. Then at the end you explain about being lifted (partially astro projecting) and how to avoid that. You are so very through in all of your videos and I am much appreciate it. ✨💛
