As a licensed therapist, I want to begin with something important. This reel is for educational and informational purposes only. It is not therapy, diagnosis, or a substitute for personalised mental health care.
The ratings shared here are not about declaring a “best” or “worst” grounding technique. They reflect my clinical experience. The methods I have practiced extensively and seen create consistent, meaningful shifts for my clients over time.
Every nervous system is different. Every trauma history is different. What regulates one person may overwhelm another. Healing is not one-size-fits-all & it is deeply personal.
The audio behind this reel includes many trauma-informed grounding techniques. However, *I have intentionally* only rated those I have worked with in depth and over time in my clinical practice. While I am familiar with and trained in other approaches (including polyvagal-informed work), I have not used some of those techniques to the extent that I feel ethically confident offering a strong clinical opinion so I chose not to rate them.
It’s about practicing within competence, integrity, and respect for the field.
If you’re here as a client: grounding is not just a trend or a coping hack. With proper psychoeducation, guided practice, and consistent integration into daily life, these tools can genuinely support nervous system regulation and long-term relief. That’s the deeper work we do together in therapy.
Compassion first. Safety always. And healing at your pace.
