As we enjoy the beginning of our summer season, I want to invite you to take part in the ancient act of connecting with the ground, called “Earthing.” To experience this, all you need to do is take off your shoes and let your body connect with grass, dirt, rocks, or sand. It’s a powerful way to reset the energy in your body and a great way to assist chronic autoimmune illness.

Stress, inflammation, fear, and overwhelm cause a build-up of internal oxidation, which has a toxic effect on your cells. Science has shown this oxidative stress is reversed when you connect with the ground. The electron-rich ground contains negatively charged ions that naturally occur in the earth. Just physically connecting with the ground counteracts the stress that’s built up in the body.

Earthing, or grounding into the earth resets your energy field in a variety of ways by decreasing stress hormones, balancing your nervous system, reducing pain and inflammation, and improving sleep. There are huge bodies of research demonstrating the powerful effect this has on pain, illness, and anxiety. Inflammatory markers decrease, sensitivity to insulin increases (so this prevents and reverses Type 2 Diabetes), and the body establishes homeostasis and restores health. This has been shown to have a powerful effect on autoimmune illness, which stems from this oxidative imbalance.

Even if you take just a moment to connect, there will be an instantaneous transfer of energy that releases electrons built up in your body. How cool is that?! Because the process is cumulative, going barefoot outdoors as much as you can will assist you in establishing greater health. Take advantage of these natural grounding benefits. It’s free and available to us all!

Love,
