A return to an old friend .Earthing

I have read for many years all the research on earthing and grounding. i have earthing/grounding products like bed pads and desk and floor pads and have read all the data for many many years But I really needed an update and some new reminders and data. thanks for the return to the essential qualities of the first and the mother of all healing .
I highly suggest this book for a comprehensive look at the research and the science of grounding. Thanks for your commitment to health and wellness...

Love this audiobook, first step towards healing

I loved the pacing of the chapters and the overall length of the book in general. The narrator kept you interested with stories that unveiled the truth about grounding that medical society today would call quackery when in reality we are the only species on earth that has lost touch with this foundational concept. I have already started my journey toward healing using grounding and in the past week I have had some of the best sleep I have had in almost six months. My mood is more calm and I am more able to deal with stress situations that I have struggled with in the past. Would recommend this book to anyone interested in learning the truth about nature and how you can use this information to achieve real healing, physically and spiritually.

Grounding is essential

This book is a great layman’s guide to the medicinal effect of Grounding. Grounding is scientifically supported, anecdotally praised and it is free!
Grounding should be one of the foundational elements of health and vitality.
If you have not heard of or understood grounding....read this book.

Lots of great information

Being new to the concept of grounding, I sought this book out despite a few negative comments because it had garnered significant positive reviews. I believe this book has received such positive reviews perhaps not because the book is particularly profound, but the act of grounding is profound. That does not mean the information in this book wasn't very interesting and helpful.

One of the more consistent complaints I have read that I would actually disagree with is the book's advocation of grounding products as if this book is only a marketing tool. It is not. I am actually happy they did discuss the various grounding products available. Yet this book didn't dwell long on them other than paint a clear picture of their efficacy and practicality especially when weather and conditions don't permit natural grounding.

I recommend the book on the level of an interesting and introductory read if you are researching the topic. Expect additional connections to Eastern Medicine as well. While mentioned, it is not necessary to use Eastern Medicine or to engage with Eastern energy practices to get the benefit of sitting on the ground.

The reader's voice is enjoyable and relaxing. It's kind of perfect for this book, but I fell asleep a few times since she isn't very expressive. Enjoy.

Great Book

This book was such a great reminder of how healing God’s Earth is for our bodies. And how grounding just a short time each day can have such amazing impacts on our health.
