Our Disconnection to Earth

We are created with an innate connection to Earth, yet the majority of us are isolated from it with our unnatural lives. We can all feel the effect that earthing and grounding has upon us - have you felt anxiety leave you after walking in the woods and connecting with trees? Have you felt relaxing and recharged after gardening, when you get your hands into the Earth? (Actually gardening is now officially classed as an anti-depressant!) Have you felt calm and relieved after walking barefoot on the beach? Do you feel the difference between bathing in the sea and swimming in the pool when on holiday?

Earthing is sometimes known as Grounding has been proven by various methods including thermography to reduce inflammation in the body, bringing relief to many chronic conditions. In terms of the Biological Laws of Nature (GNM/GHK), earthing effectively resolves our disconnection to our home and it resolves the innate isolation we feel due to this disconnection, thus reducing inflammation caused by this isolation and feeling of a fish out of water.

Additionally, when it is practised regularly, we begin to feel and experience that connection consciously.  That feeling of never being alone, of being supported and connected to all of Nature, of being a part of something bigger than ourselves – how can we ever feel isolated with this feeling?

So how can we Earth ourselves in our everyday busy lives?

Well, ideally we would live on land, sleep on the Earth, walk barefoot and grow all our food (which is even believed to alter its nutrient values depending on the biofeedback we provide naturally whilst gardening!). While this is just not possible for many of us, here are some ideas for Earthing yourself.

Walk Barefoot: Take regular trips to the woods, mountains, beach etc, walk barefoot (I do this even in winter even if for a short time!), touch (or even hug) the trees, gaze at the natural greenery and gaze at the water, if you are at the sea or river. Imagine your connection as energetic roots, imagine that you feel it if you don’t feel anything, and with practice you soon will begin to feel it.

Use Earthing products: Use an Earthing sheet and/or earthing pad. There are many cheap imitations on the market but our products are from Groundology, who are supplier of the world's best grounding/earthing products, including being UK distributors for Clint Ober's Earthing™ products.

Salt baths with a natural salt such as Dead Sea Salts, Magnesium Flakes, Sea Salt or Himalayan salt can temporarily release inflammation by mimicking your return to the primordial sea. Of course you can also bathe in the sea! You need to have at least 1kg salt in a bath, be submerged over waist height, and stay for an hour or more until you spontaneously urinate (meaning the KCT have opened up and released some inflammation).

Wear natural fibres: Natural fibres such as cotton, linen and wool and natural soled shoes such as leather.
