From a GLAS Method perspective, Strong Ground directly strengthens Emotions / Awareness, Energy / Vitality, and Purpose / Meaning by focusing on the internal foundations that make aligned action possible. Brown’s emphasis on grounding — being fully present with emotion, body, and values — nurtures the GLAS element of emotional awareness, helping individuals notice internal signals before they escalate into drift, distraction, or defensive reaction. This internal clarity supports intentional behaviour that reflects core values rather than habitual avoidance.
The book’s insight that grounded presence conserves vitality aligns with Energy / Vitality: when attention is centred rather than fragmented by fear, rumination, or overthinking, individuals can preserve cognitive and emotional resources for intentional engagement. This reduces the internal drag that comes from unconscious stress responses, enabling steadier focus and greater resilience — both critical to maintaining balance across the broader GLAS elements.
Finally, Strong Ground reinforces Purpose / Meaning by helping readers cultivate inner coherence so that outward action is a consistent expression of values and intention. When purpose is lived from the inside out, behaviour becomes more reliable, relationships deepen, and environments shift toward trust and psychological safety. In GLAS terms, this internal anchoring strengthens the system overall — enabling aligned performance, deeper connection, and sustained growth rather than reactive drift.
