I recommend that all my clients get grounded!

If you don’t live in an environment where you can walk outside barefoot everyday,

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND getting a grounding mat from earthing.com

1. Grounding reduces inflammation

The influx of free electrons from the Earth’s surface is thought to neutralize free radicals and reduce both acute and chronic inflammation and accelerated aging.

2. Grounding helps reduce stress and stress hormones.

One double blind study investigated the effects of earthing on 58 healthy adults. To read their electrical signals, the researchers used conductive adhesive patches that are placed on the sole of each participant’s foot.

The subjects were then exposed to 28 minutes in the unearthed condition followed by 28 minutes with the earthing wire connected. Controls were unearthed for 56 minutes.

After earthing, about half the subjects showed “an abrupt, almost instantaneous change in root mean square (rms) values of electroencephalograms (EEGs) from the left hemisphere of the brain.”

These changes are believed to signify positive changes and lower stress reaction. 19 of 22 earthing participants also experienced decreased blood volume pulses (BVP).

After considering the effects on electrophysiological properties of the brain and musculature as recorded using EEG, EMG and BVP readings, the findings suggest significantly higher reductions in overall stress levels and tension results in the earthing participants compared to the control group.

3. Grounding helps in having a better sleep.

This is because stress hormones have an effect on the natural circadian rhythm of our body.

When our bodies are not in line with the natural rhythms of the earth, including the patterns of light and darkness or “electrical” charges, our sleep and immunity suffer. In short, too much stress causes poor sleep.

4. Grounding helps to increase energy levels.

Physiological stress is closely related to the levels of cortisol in the body. Stress impacts cortisol while cortisol increases the response to stress.

As this cycle continues, fatigue and sleep problems start to develop as well as the craving for low nutrient foods, sugar, and excess calories and can ultimately lead to low energy levels.

But as you start to practice grounding, you will start to have better sleep and improve your hormone levels. When you enjoy all these, your energy levels will soon increase.

5. Grounding helps lower pain.

In most cases, inflammation is the major cause of pain. By lowering inflammation, its very possible to help combat pain caused by chronic autoimmune disorders, injuries­­­­, headaches, menstrual problems and other health problems.

One 2010 pilot study compared the pain levels of adults who were grounding compared to a control group following intense exercise that caused muscle soreness.

The results showed that grounding the body to the earth altered measures of immune system activity and pain.

Among the ungrounded men, there was an expected, sharp increase in white blood cells (sign of an inflammatory response) and greater perception of pain after exercise.

In comparison, the grounded men had only a slight decrease in white blood cells, indicating less inflammation and experienced shorter recovery times.

There is quite a bit to read here is an excerpt..

Grounding appears to improve sleep, normalize the day–night cortisol rhythm, reduce pain, reduce stress, shift the autonomic nervous system from sympathetic toward parasympathetic activation, increase heart rate variability, speed wound healing, and reduce blood viscosity.

In the conclusion they write…

In patients who experience anxiety, emotional stress, panic, fear, and/or symptoms of autonomic dystonia, including headaches, cardiac palpitations, and dizziness, grounding could be a very realistic therapy. These patients may see positive effects most likely within 20 to 30 minutes and in almost all cases in 40 minutes
