Earthing/Grounding - What is it and how can it help you? EarthBound Grounding Nz
Grounding, also known as earthing, is emerging as a powerful, natural therapy that may hold the key to reducing inflammation and enhancing overall well-being.
Research has shown that direct contact with the Earth's natural electric charge can have profound effects on our health, particularly in the fight against inflammatory illnesses.
Best of all, Earthing is free, easy to implement. You can start today by heading outside for 20mins barefoot (if its warm enough for you in your part of NZ😀)
Incorporating the practice of Earthing into your daily health plan makes the biggest impact and the easiest way to get 8+ hours of connection is by far, sleeping on an Earthing mat.
Ground-breaking studies reveal that grounding can:
Reduce Chronic Inflammation: Chronic inflammation is often referred to as “silent inflammation” because it can silently damage tissues and weaken the immune system over time. Grounding helps in neutralizing this silent inflammation, protecting your body from unnecessary harm.
Act as a Natural Anti-Inflammatory: Unlike conventional anti-inflammatory drugs that can have significant side effects, grounding is a non-pharmaceutical option that is free, easy to implement, and enhances quality of life by tapping into the Earth's electrons and the Schumann resonances.
Combat Modern Health Challenges: From cardiovascular diseases to diabetes and even complications from Covid-19, grounding has shown promise in various clinical studies. For instance, grounding has been observed to improve heart rate variability (HRV), reduce blood viscosity, and enhance blood flow, thereby reducing the risk of chronic illnesses.
Support in Covid-19 Recovery: Recent research has highlighted grounding’s potential in alleviating symptoms and complications associated with Covid-19. Patients who grounded themselves either by walking barefoot or using conductive patches saw significant improvements in their symptoms.
Improve Mental and Emotional Well-being: Grounding has also been shown to reduce psychological stress and normalize cortisol levels, which can lead to better sleep, reduced anxiety, and an overall sense of calm and balance.
Join the movement towards a healthier, inflammation-free life with our range of premium earthing products. Our Earthing solutions are designed to bring the Earth's natural energy right into your home, and to make it easy to 'ground' each and every day.
