Hello,

What is "grounding" in reference to qigong?

I have trouble trying to describe it to a friend. I think of doing it will give me balance in the active exercises. However, I keep thinking there is more to it than that; somewhat in the spiritual sense.

I also read it somewhere, not SFQ, it describe doing grounding with meditation. Why do one wants to do grounding while meditating or before meditating?

Then my thought went to the science of electricity. Is it for protection? Thinking we should not do exercise in the rain or wind.
