I am totally in love with Earthing/Grounding. "WHY"? I hear your ask, well I will tell you.
Grounding is a practice whereby individuals are put in direct contact with the surface of the Earth. It includes walking barefoot outdoors, swimming in the oceans and lakes or sleeping, working and relaxing indoors with bare skin in contact with conductive mats, pillows etc, in order to maintain the body at Earths electric potential.
(I have a grounding mat under my bare feet while at my computer)
The earths negative electric surface charge is virtually limitless reservoir of free electrons that is constantly replenished by the global atmospheric electric circuit. The Earthing hypothesis states that when direct skin contact is made with the Earths surface or a ground system indoors, the body's electric potential equalises with the Earths potential thereby maintaining the body's access to the earths negative surface charge (electrons). This contact prevents build-up of static electric charge on the body and allows the body to store a supply of electrons.
Published research indicates that grounding yields a broad array of intriguing positive changes within the physiology and bioelectrical construct of the body. Multiple reported benefits include the following.
Improved sleep, decreased pain, a normalising effect on cortisol, reduction of stress, diminished damage to muscles caused by delayed onset of muscle soreness, lessening indicators of osteoporosis, and improved thyroid function, glucose regulation, immune response, and blood fluidity. WOW!
But what I want to show you today is the benefits that grounding has on our face! Increased blood flow to the face is seen as a major natural way to rejuvenate the skin of the face. A study was done on grounded and ungrounded subjects at BioMed IRB of San Diego.
“The results demonstrate, for the first time, that even one-hour contact with the earth restores blood flow regulation to the face that may enhance skin tissue repair, health and vitality, and optimise facial appearance, which may also have broad implications for overall cardiovascular function and health.”
If there are improvements on the exterior while you ground, it’s because there are improvements to the interior.
Every day is Earth Day!

Efforts to restore an historic lodge at Ohoka, near Rangiora, have received a boost.
The Waimakariri District Council has agreed to expand the terms of its grant to the Ohoka Domain Advisory Group to allow funds to be used for the restoration of the historic Ohoka Gatekeepers Lodge.
Mayor Dan Gordon said the decision recognised the hard work of the advisory group.
"It is about making sure a significant piece of history for Ohoka is preserved.
"It will be a great resource for the district when it is completed."
Gordon said the advisory group was made up of volunteers who are passionate about the history of the lodge and the Ohoka bush.
The grant was approved for the advisory group as part of the 2021-31 long-term plan for the upkeep of the Ohoka Bush.
An amount of $10,530 was approved for the 2023-24 financial year.
The council accepted ownership of the lodge in 2018 and, at the time, stipulated the advisory group would seek external funding for its upkeep.
"The advisory group has sought external funding for the repairs to the lodge, but they have found it is very difficult at the moment," Gordon said.
"They came to the council with a very reasonable request and the council had no hesitation in supporting it."
Heritage New Zealand recommended in 2019 for the lodge to be listed as a category 2 historic place (local significance).
The original Ohoka lodge was built in the 1870s or 1880s, but was destroyed by fire in 1891.
It was restored soon after as a small, Gothic styled timber building.
The lodge served as the control point to access JS White's Ohoka Estate and was the residence of the gatekeeper/gardener and his family.
The gatekeeper’s role was to manage horse and gig and horse and coach traffic by opening and closing the gate.
The Cust Bowling Club has also approached the council for a grant of $2930 for the installation of a backflow prevention device.
Council staff noted the club is in a unique position of owning its own property, whereas most bowling clubs occupied council-owned land.
As the property owner, the club is responsible for the installation of a backflow prevention device.
Gordon said councillors have asked for more information from staff and will consider the request at the November council meeting.
"We need to consider, if we do this, is there anything we would need to do for other clubs?
"Also, could it be done as an interest-free loan rather than a grant?"
