GROUNDED: Documentary shows that regular bare skin contact with the Earth improves health! A wheelchair bound man even walks!
Did you know that you can increase the healing rate of your body simply by walking barefoot on the Earth? Numerous books and videos have been made demonstrating that there really is an energetic exchange between the Earth and our body when we contact the earth in a clear way. Benefits include reduction of inflammation, increased healing speed and often a sense of wellbeing too.
The following documentary is one of the best known ones online for this topic and does a decent job of demonstrating some of the benefits of 'grounding' humans and animals to the Earth. In my own experience, I had a small lump appear on my wrist disappear quickly after I bought a 'grounding mat' which connects to the house electricity system's 'ground' connector and which sits under my hand as I use a computer mouse. The lump had been there for years and I am pretty clear it was due to grounding my body that it faded to nothing. Additionally, due to the size of my facial features, I am one of the people who sneeze when they look at the sun! The nerves that trigger the sneeze response are too close to my optic nerves and so when a very bright light such as the sun shines into my eyes, the increase in charges can trigger me to sneeze. I have found that if I connect to the Earth with bare feet and look at the sun, I simply don't sneeze - which i presume is because the nervous electrical energy in my body is able to be kept balanced through my connection to the Earth, stopping me from being triggered to sneeze.
Pretty interesting stuff! This documentary appears to show, among other things, a wheelchair bound man being able to walk again after nothing more than regularly grounding! Pretty amazing!
Interesting read I never knew about this topic until I read the article. Thank you for the info fellow steemian.
you are welcome! the documentary is good and the book is worth reading too.
Walking barefoot first thing in the morning helps absorb prana- life energy. Learned so much while getting my Ayurveda practitioner license but posts like these refresh my knowledge and motivate me to practice and continue learning! Upvoted!🌱
very good - energy does need to be circulated, yes. one thing to be aware of is that there are practices of 'dumping' our unwanted energy in to the earth - this is not something that helps anything.. what's ours is ours and we need to heal the damaged parts when we are able.
So true.....
That's true. Grounding helps to eliminate the free radicals that trigger inflammation in the body. Grounding is one of the best antioxidants that exist.
very good!
Interesting post. I shall perhaps look up some more articles.
i recommend the animal communicator post from several days ago - for a moving documentary. or my posts about heart healing if that's more your aim.
Thank you, I will look.
you are welcome!
It will be my evening watch, I go through all the post promotion I had opened to read so it's time for some passive attention :D
great! good choice!
ill follow you :) was into reiki before, but it was to intense. Strange things happened. Maybe I should "connect more.." now that I am older...
great, ok - i'll follow you back! reiki, to my understanding, tunes us into a sub-set of frequencies of spiritual essence that can be directed internally. regardless of what we are attuning to, it is necessary and valuable to be connected to the Earth/Heart <3
ok cool to hear. Thanks! I experienced it as a opening up for a flow of energy, and information, and the energy was kinda like plasma/magnetism.
i see, ok - my own (limited) experience of receiving reiki energy was involved my inner vision becoming filled with golden light - i have only ever had similar experiences during transformational periods in my life where i have been alone and detoxed and doing yoga (recently). it is amazing that we are so often so ignorant of who we really are! we have much to learn. <3
Yes! I think that every day we can learn new things, as long as we are open for it. Cool to hear. Did you feel any sensation other than visual?
the connection was from my feet up - it was quite a long time ago and i don't recall any particular feeling at this point, but possibly. i wasn't very comfortable actually because it was directly affecting my own spirit in a way that i am not used to. it felt a bit invasive actually - but not nasty at all.
yes, I understand what you mean, It totally freaked me out the first time.
it helps to first understand our own connection in spirit and our own energy body - but i guess it can be an interesting doorway into experience of that for those who have not found it in their own way yet.
Great article, love it!
