What is another word for grounding?
Pronunciation: [ɡɹˈa͡ʊndɪŋ] (IPA) 
Grounding is a term used to describe the process of making contact with the earth's surface, either physically or metaphorically. Its synonyms vary depending on the context in which it is used. In electrical engineering, it can refer to earthing, which means connecting an electric circuit to the earth's surface. In spiritual and psychological contexts, alluding to a state of being present in the here and now, presentness, centering, mindfulness, and connecting can all be synonyms for grounding. Likewise, some people use anchoring or stabilizing when referring to grounding in a more physical sense, which helps them feel seated in their surroundings and less anxious. Regardless of context, all of these synonyms share the essence of bringing oneself back to a state of stability, balance, and being in the present moment.
