Episode 383: Alternative Therapies - Earthing

I'm talking today about a therapy that is rather woo. It is called Earthing. With more than 30 years of medical studies performed on it, I was surprised that I didn't learn of it until very recently. Simply put, it is the practice of putting your bare skin on the earth. The idea came from the fact that we walked the earth for millennia without shoes. In our modern world we're receiving all kinds of wave particles both natural and artificial. Artificial waves like wifi, cell, and electromagnetic. We are taking in the waves and don't have ways of discharging them. Our electrical outlets have grounding sockets. Researchers are finding that our bodies, too, need to be grounded. When we just touch the earth, we start to discharge the excess electric energy that builds up in us. We can test this just with a home volt meter. But the studies go on to show that inflammation, pain, weight, blood thickness are examples of things that have all shifted with just short but regular bouts of contact with the earth. This is absolutely the lowest tech, most accessible change that most of us can make and see whether or not it helps. There is a movie on YouTube called The Earthing Movie https://youtu.be/44ddtR0XDVU Didn't all the children already know this? Don't all the gardeners know this? This is concrete evidence about the way nature heals us. Have you heard about earthing? Have you tried it? What are your experiences
