Just as electricity can dissipate when it reaches the ground, something in the human body also changes when it comes in direct physical contact with the earth. Given that the human body relies on electrical signals for communication between cells, the brain, nerves, muscles, and more, it makes sense that contact with the grounding effect of the planet could have a biochemical effect.
The term “earthing” refers to making direct contact between the human body and the ground, allowing the body to interact with the Earth’s energy. According to the book “Earthing: The Most Important Health Discovery Ever!” by authors Clinton Ober, Dr. Stephen T. Sinatra, and Martin Zucker, scientists have discovered numerous health benefits associated with earthing, including anti-inflammatory effects, pain relief, improved sleep, blood purification, and enhanced skin appearance. It can also help reduce stress, regulate circadian rhythms, and even improve various chronic illnesses.
