New to Earthing Then Read On
Most people start to feel better soon after they start Earthing. They adjust easily to the Earth Energy.
There are plenty of good reasons to keep Earthing even though you might not feel any effects, points out biophysicist and Earthing expert James Oschman, Ph.D "Earthing seems to slow the inevitable effects of aging and help prevent so - call diseases of aging all of which are inflammatory conditions. For some people, grounding can feel unusual in the beginning., some people may feel flu-like symptoms that include malaise, achiness, headache, a foggy mind, tiredness. Muscle cramps and disturbed sleep might occur.
Our observations suggest that a healing, normalization process is underway because of Earthing's ability to improve blood flow and oxygenation of the tissues as well as restore a natural electrical state in the body. Systemically, more efficient cell repair and function takes place, promoting a clear-out of wastes and toxins. Such a detoxification could result in the symptoms just mentioned. Nerve fibers may function better, resulting in unaccustomed sensations. Earthing has given the body additional resources to clean up and try to return to normal. Energy is expended in this process, so people sometimes feel initial fatigue before feeling increased energy. These responses vary from person-to-person, and when they occur, generally ease off within a week or two.
The sicker you are the more Earthing time you need to gain relief and regain health
Let me explain. An hour a day of Earthing means 23 hours ungrounded, and usually not enough grounding time for serious health problems. You likely need many hours to reverse course; more hours grounded than ungrounded. If someone were to be grounded 24/7 or close to it as humans were in past cultures, you would not develop much inflammation in your body. Earthing always works if you spend enough time doing it.
Why does the Earth's electric field transfer so easily to the body?
The body is mostly water and minerals. It is an excellent conductor of electricity (electrons) The free electrons on the surface of the Earth are easily transferred to the human body as long as there is direct contact.
How Fast does Earthing work in the Body?
Earthing does not cure anything, contact with the earth helps restore the body's natural electrical balances and reduce stress and inflammation. We have repeatedly observed Earthing producing beneficial effects quickly. Keep in mind that the body is a good conductor of free electrons. Research has shown the clocked speed of earthing is about 20 - 30 minutes to reach sites of pain and inflammation such as a shoulder. A painful knee would respond faster as it is closer to the grounded feet. The influx of electrons gives a powerful boost to the body's antioxidant and anti-inflammatory defenses. Like reinforcements, we believe they rapidly neutralize free radical molecules that create chronic inflammation, arresting the destructive action on healthy tissues, and leading to a reduction of pain. Medical thermal imaging has shown decreased inflammation in minutes after people are grounded. You can see examples of such decreased inflammation in several thermal imaging studies on Earthing here
There is an instant and natural shift in your body when you become grounded. Everyone is different. Symptoms are different. Causes are different. Clearly, lasting changes in stress, sleep, pain, and body rhythms occur when we ground ourselves routinely. Earthing does not cure anything. It restores a natural electrical balance in the body and reduces stress and inflammation. Earthing can thus have both short-term and long-term effects.
Can Earthing add years to my life?
We think it has powerful anti-aging potential. Many researchers have documented the deterioration of the immune system as we age, a decline called immunosenescence. A prominent medical theory states that one of the causes of general deterioration during aging is free radical damage, technically known as oxidative stress, and resulting in injury to cells. Since Earthing greatly reduces oxidative stress and inflammation it would be logical to think it could increase life expectancy and improve health. There is no question that maintaining a functionally "young" immune system is an excellent strategy for preserving the quality of life and slowing senescence.
Note: The most important benefit of Earthing is not reducing body voltage. That’s a secondary effect. Most important is the reduction of inflammation, regarded as the cause of most common illnesses. Being grounded, that is, connected to the Earth, quickly calms the nervous system, and allows the Earth’s electrons to flow into the body where they quench the free radicals that cause inflammation. This is what reduces pain.
Skeptical?
If you have pain, try this simple test:
1. Go outside barefoot.
2. Walk, stand, or sit barefoot.
3. Note your approximate pain level.
4. Do it for a half hour or hour. Note your pain level again. In most cases, you will find that it has improved. You feel better. People tell me this little experiment is unbelievable. It can make a believer out of a skeptic.
