What is Earthing?
Because our modern lifestyle prohibits most people from spending time in direct contact with the earth, Barefoot Connections™products were designed to help make the connection – in the comfort of your own home or work place. In today’s world, re-connecting with the Earth could be one of the most important things you do!
Reconnecting with the Earth
Becoming aware of the importance of our connection with the earth allows us to seek any and all opportunities to re-connect our bodies with the earth. This means spending time outdoors as often as possible – without shoes – standing barefoot on the earth.
Unfortunately, in today’s world, going barefoot outdoors is often impractical. When we can’t spend time outside, Sleeping Earthedintroduces an alternative – a proxy – for standing barefoot on the earth. It’s called “Earthing™”.
Benefits of Earthing
Earthing™ provides substantially the same effects as standing barefoot on the earth. It is a simple way to re-connect the human body with the earth in the comfort of our own homes and work places.
Earthing™ allows the natural influences from the earth which have been an integral part of life’s evolutionary process, to flow to our bodies as nature intended.
Earthing™ discharges the build-up of bio-electrical stress and it supports the neutralization of free radicals that research has revealed cause pain, chronic inflammation, and auto-immune disease.
Earthing™ supports the synchronization of biological rhythms and influences the hormones that regulate sleep and many other functions.
People everywhere are re-connecting with the earth via Barefoot Connections™ products. These products keep you connected while you sleep, while you work, and very soon – while you play.
Why does Earthing work?
The Earth's negative electrical surface charge is the accumulated effect of thousands of thunderstorms — 5,000 lightning strikes every minute across the Earth. Since the Earth's surface is highly conductive, this electrical charge is evenly and rapidly dispersed across the earth. Standing barefoot on the Earth (or otherwise connecting to the the earth) connects the human body with the unlimited supply of free electrons resident in and on the surface of the Earth.
Try this experiment:
1. Go outdoors, remove your shoes and place your bare feet on the Earth for 30 minutes.
2. Notice (within minutes) that stress, tension and pain are beginning to naturally dissolve away.
3. Notice that after 30 minutes your respiration, circulation and energy have significantly improved.
Now, imagine how you will feel when you are earthed every day all night while you sleep. That's the power of Sleeping Earthed.
Many people have noticed that they feel better when they spend time barefoot in the outdoors. Now we know why!
Earthing™ (re-connecting with the earth) is a recent idea. It is based on scientific evidence confirming the long-suspected necessity for barefoot contact with the earth. Modern science has determined that standing barefoot on the earth (or otherwise connecting to the natural frequencies of the earth) has a wide variety of effects on the human body.
Standing barefoot on the earth (or otherwise connecting to the natural frequencies of the earth) connects the human body with an unlimited supply of free electrons resident in and on the surface of the earth. Standing barefoot on the earth also connects the human body with rhythmic cycles of the earth’s energy field. These are essential for synchronizing biological clocks, hormonal cycles and physiological rhythms.
How do I get Earthed?
It is a well established scientific fact (though not widely known), that the earth’s surface is charged with mobile free electrons. The earth’s surface charge is commonly referred to as “ground” or “the earth’s electrical potential.” When grounded or “earthed,” any conductive object including the human or animal body becomes charged – at the speed of light - with the earth’s free electrons.
From the beginning, all life on earth has been nurtured within the electromagnetic womb of the earth. Humans have lived and slept in direct and virtually constant contact with earth. Until recently, the human body has been continually charged with the earth’s free electrons.
Today, most people live for extended periods of time completely disconnected from the earth. We work and often live in high-rise buildings. The use of plastics, synthetic fabrics, and synthetic-soled shoes insulates us to an even greater degree so that the human body is no longer in its natural state – connected to the earth. As a result, the human body is no longer able to receive the constant supply of free electrons our bodies evolved around.
During the same period of time that we have elevated our dwellings and work places, and incorporated synthetic materials into our modern lifestyle, we have seen an increase in chronic health problems and sleep disorders that were rare or unheard of 50 to 60 years ago. Research has revealed that most of our modern diseases are linked with inflammation and free radical damage. Could this be the consequence of our disconnection from the earth?
Chris Lieto - Three-time Ironman Triathlon Champion
Chris Leito;“Since I began using the Barefoot Connections™ bed sheets and Travel Recovery Bag, my recovery time is noticeably reduced; I require about an hour less sleep at night and I wake up more energized and refreshed.
Recently, I had an experience that has verified, for me, the unquestionable power of the connection with the earth. For the last several years my allergic reaction to bee stings has been increasing. I have been stung three years in a row while training, and each year the reaction has gotten worse. Last year I had to go to the emergency room because of the severe swelling. This year, I was doing my last intensive training in preparation for the Ironman World Championship. On the 3rd day, I was stung in the chest and thought I was going to lose 3 or 4 days of training. As soon as I got home, I placed a conductive patch over the area of the sting and plugged it into the Earth Tap.
After a couple of hours, there was no swelling and no allergic reaction. The earth connection is so incredible, and the Barefoot Connections™ products have been working so well with my training and recovery. I feel such a difference since I started using them. This recent experience provides unquestionable, tangible evidence for me. Thanks EarthFX!! "
