Resumen del Editor

A life lived indoors is not a life lived. And yet many of us spend the majority of our days indoors, trapped in our own heads, addicted to our screens and online connections, and feeling more and more disconnected to our own bodies - and the planet - than ever before. Intuitively, we know that even a five-minute walk outdoors can calm us and awaken our senses, but we tell ourselves we don't have time, or we can't seem to make the time.

In The Earth Prescription, holistic physician Laura Koniver, MD, offers the ideal antidote to the toxicity of a life isolated from nature-grounding, or directly touching the earth to heal your body and rejuvenate your sense of total well-being. This simple activity connects you to the earth, allowing you to reap its restorative powers - which include reducing depression, lowering blood pressure, curbing stress, and increasing happiness.

With this practical and uplifting guide, you'll learn how to incorporate the practice of grounding anytime, anywhere, and find tips for including kids or your favorite pooch. This book will give you everything you need to enjoy the healing energy of nature - you simply have to get outside and get grounded.

IMO not worth it.

I was hoping this would have been a good book, but it was a wast of my time. I only got one thing out of it and that is that babies need grounding too. The author points out that she was able to ground her infant while holding the baby and making skin contact while walking barefoot out doors. Good point. Not much after that. A lot of common sense stuff. I understand that the author is trying to give ideas on grounding, but holy crap. I was bored to tears when she went on and on about crafting. She would
Go into detail on how to do crafts. Maybe it’s just me because I lived in a household that did crafts all the time, and so I know how to do everything that she went into boring detail about. I just thought that this book should be more about grounding and not crafts and bird watching. That’s in another chapter. She would go into detail about a craft and then say don’t forget to do this grounded. I would have preferred a bunch of testimonials from other people and how grounding worked for them. I have listed to the book “Earthing by Clint Ober.” Much better. I would pass on this book if I were you.
