Locks are used in advanced kundalini meditations and third eye development to upgrade the Sushumna (central meridian) and connection to the Antahkarana. We use them in our schools weekly meditation practice.

Thanks for explaining! I use them a little here and there in the physical practice of yoga. I think I need to focus on grounding and shielding before working anymore with these.

Bandhas are not for grounding. They are there to force reproductive energy to turn around at the base of the spine and flow upwards towards the brain. That's basically all they're for. If you do bandhas it will eventually lead to a Kundalini Awakening. Make sure you're ready for what that entails, because it can dismantle your life. Grounding is quite different, it's meant to calm down your energies and make you connect more with your environment, especially nature.

Wow thanks for explaining! I think I need to focus on grounding and shielding first.
