Grounding (earthing) is a simple practice of restoring your body’s natural connection to the Earth—for calmer nerves, better sleep, and healthier recovery. Here’s how it works and how to do it anywhere.
Grounding (earthing) reconnects your body to the Earth’s natural energy—by going barefoot outdoors or using indoor products that safely provide the same connection. People use grounding to help reduce chronic inflammation, calm the stress response, and restore a healthy bioelectric balance.
The Earth carries a subtle negative charge. When you’re grounded, your body absorbs free electrons that help neutralize excess free radicals—the drivers of oxidative stress and chronic inflammation. Think of it as “electrical nutrition” for your nervous and circulatory systems.
Raised beds, high-rise living, rubber/plastic shoe soles, and full days spent indoors—all reduce natural contact with the Earth. Grounding rebuilds that connection in minutes a day.
Supports recovery and comfort throughout the body.
Fall asleep easier and wake more refreshed.
Balances the stress response and quiets the mind.
Warm hands/feet; healthy, nourished tissues.
Feel steady instead of “wired and tired.”
Move easier; feel less creaky and stiff.
Note: Grounding has been investigated in peer-reviewed studies for effects on inflammation, sleep, stress, and circulation.
Place your mat where you sit, stand, or sleep.
Connect the cord to a grounded outlet using the included checker.
Rest your bare skin on the mat for 15–30 minutes (or longer).
Consistency matters more than long sessions—even 10 minutes helps.
