How to use Grounding Techniques to calm the body and mind.

They shift your focus from past or future thinking into the present moment. In this video, Lisa Andrews, LCSW, Clinical Supervisor with CJE SeniorLife Counseling Services, will share more information about grounding techniques and some ideas for specific exercises to try.
