Connecting
with the Earth is important for our health.
The Earth
has a powerful network of free electrons, which are accessible to those who
expose their bodies to the earth's natural energies. Just as our body has its
own energy network of dynamically charged biochemical circuits, similarly the
Earth is permeated by invisible but dynamic electrical circuits. There is a
constant physical communication between the Earth and our central nervous
system that helps program trillions of chemical reactions. Modern
footwear isolates our feet from the Earth's electromagnetic energy, which can
lead to physical and mental disharmony. Grounding, (that is, our contact with
the ground), offers multiple benefits: It fights inflammation, reduces stress,
improves sleep and strengthens our immune system. To
experience these benefits, take off your shoes, sit or walk barefoot on grass,
sand or a tree trunk. A practical choice is our slippers made of natural
materials, such as wool, rubber, cork and leather, where we apply a copper rivet
to the sole, in order to facilitate grounding, providing direct contact with
the Earth's electromagnetic field. These simple practices can bring you closer
to nature and renew your well-being, offering a sense of balance and connection
to the world around you. Below you can read an overview of
grounding-based scientific research: Electrical Properties of Earthing(Grounding) - Electron Transfer: Grounding is thought to allow
electrons from the Earth to enter the body, which can have antioxidant effects. - Reducing Electrical Noise: Grounding can reduce the body's
exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMFs) from modern technology, which some
research suggests can have negative health effects. 1. Natural Electrical Environment: The Earth has a negative electrical
charge, which can help neutralize free radicals in the body. Grounding allows
the transfer of electrons from the Earth to the body, potentially reducing
oxidative stress. 2. Bioelectrical Stability: Grounding can help stabilize the
body's electrical environment. It can enhance the body's ability to maintain
its natural electrical field, which is critical for cellular communication and
function. Health Benefits 1. Reduce Inflammation: Some studies suggest that grounding
can reduce markers of inflammation in the body. By providing a direct
connection to the Earth, it is believed to promote a physiological response
that helps manage inflammation. 2. Improve Sleep Quality: Research has shown that grounding
can improve sleep quality. Study participants who practiced grounding reported
better sleep and reduced insomnia symptoms. 3. Reduce Stress: Grounding can help reduce cortisol
levels, which are often elevated in response to stress. This can lead to
improved mood and overall mental health. Research Studies 1. Pilot Studies: Several pilot studies have shown
positive results regarding the effects of grounding on cardiovascular health,
including improved circulation and reduced blood viscosity. 2. Chronic Pain Management: Some studies have suggested that
grounding can help relieve chronic pain by affecting the body's pain response
mechanisms. 3. Sleep and Circadian Rhythm: Research suggests that grounding can
have a positive effect on circadian rhythm, leading to better sleep patterns. Although
preliminary research supports various health benefits associated with earthing(grounding),
further studies are needed to fully understand the mechanisms and validate
these effects scientifically.
