My first class in the "Tap Into Your True Self I”

​A few weeks ago I attended my first class in the "Tap Into Your True Self I” course where we learned the art of attaching a grounding cord to our first chakra and visualizing dropping it to the center of the earth to ground out negative energy in the body.  I had the opportunity to test it out the very next day.  

I was at a doctor's appointment, and the nurse came in to take my blood pressure, concerned that it read 151/84.  I explained to her that I have what is called "White Coat Syndrome”.  "White Coat Syndrome" causes stress when my blood pressure is taken in a clinical setting, automatically spiking it and giving a false reading, unlike when taking it at home.  My normal blood pressure is about 125/80 at home.  My doctor is aware of this and I give her readings that I take at home to assure her that I indeed do not have high blood pressure.  

At the end of my appointment, my doctor asked if the nurse could take my blood pressure again now that 30 minutes had passed. I reminded her that taking it again doesn’t ever change the outcome, in fact, sometimes it makes it worse with all the scrutiny involved in getting an acceptable reading.  I agreed to just do it "for fun".  She left the room to attend to another patient so I decided to practice the grounding technique that I learned in the "Tap into Your True Self I" class to see what would happen.  I tapped into my body, dropped the anxiety right down my grounding cord dropping out the nerves and concentrated on lowering my blood pressure just as we learned the previous night.  It was actually the first time I practiced so I was still very new at it.  The nurse came in about 3 minutes later, took my pressure and was shocked at the result.  It had dropped to 130/90!  I was able to reduce the number by 21 points in a short amount of time! 

My doctor was so surprised and happy with the outcome and is now convinced that my blood pressure is truly normal since this is the first time ever that I got an acceptable reading in her office. What fun it was to put grounding to such good use the day after I had learned the technique.  It really does work and it is so easy to do anytime you need to clear out your body of negative thoughts and beliefs - it’s such a great tool! Give it a try and see for yourself. I know I will be using this technique each time my blood pressure is taken in the office along with so many other situations I face daily.
