Frequently Asked Questions
Why am I not "checking" the floor anymore?
Because the Ground Holds Without Attention. You have successfully moved "Grounding" from an "Active Task" to a "Background Fact." Your Threat system has accepted the environment as stable. In this framework, reducing the "monitoring" of your stability is the final step in recovery. You are "trusted-grounded." This frees up your Attention Band for higher-order meaning and direct experience.
Is it dangerous to stop monitoring?
No, it is "Homeostatic." Your body doesn't "monitor" your heartbeat to make it work; it just works. In the Meaning Density Model™, your "Stability" has become an "autonomic" function. By not watching the ground, you are actually more safe, because your system is no longer in a state of "vigilant doubt." You are living in a "Validated Environment."
