Title is basically it.
For me, it’s usually coffee, or anything spicy, like cayenne pepper. Apple cider vinegar usually does it, too.

Not sure that’s an experience I’m familiar with, especially from food / drink. I’ll have to watch out for it. Do you happen to know where the term emerged from? Seems like lots of people here didn’t understand it, is it used more often in different contexts or communities?
Those are a lot of great questions that I don’t think I have the answers to unfortunately. It’s possible it has different uses, but in both layman use and in professional experience (developmental disabilities, anxiety), grounding seems to have the same meaning. There is a thing called “grounding exercises” or “grounding techniques” that are used to, as I mentioned, bring the person experiencing the heightened state of emotions back down to a stable state.
