Earthing

By: Martin Zucker, Clinton Ober, Stephen T Sinatra

Narrated by: Paul Costanzo

Length: 8 hrs and 46 mins

Publisher's Summary

Throughout most of evolution humans walked barefoot and slept on the ground, largely oblivious that the surface of the Earth contains limitless healing energy. Science has discovered this energy as free-flowing electrons constantly replenished by solar radiation and lightning. Few people know it, but the ground provides a subtle electric signal that maintains health and governs the intricate mechanisms that make our bodies work - just like plugging a lamp into a power socket makes it light up. Modern lifestyle, including the widespread use of insulative rubber or plastic-soled shoes, has disconnected us from this energy and, of course, we no longer sleep on the ground as we did in times past.

Earthing introduces the planet's powerful, amazing, and overlooked natural healing energy and how people anywhere can readily connect to it. This eye-opening book describes how the physical disconnect with the Earth creates abnormal physiology and contributes to inflammation, pain, fatigue, stress, and poor sleep. By reconnecting to the Earth, symptoms are rapidly relieved and even eliminated and recovery from surgery, injury, and athletic overexertion is accelerated.

This never-before-told story - filled with fascinating research and real-life testimonials - chronicles a discovery with the potential to create a global health revolution.

Must Read!

What made the experience of listening to Earthing the most enjoyable?

Fascinating! Loved it! Tried it! I had to give it a try and bought a half sheet for my bed so I could be grounded as I slept. We'll it has been 6 days now and I feel awsome! Really I have energy, I just feel good. I'm looking forward to bed at night because I'm having such a wonderful, peaceful sleep. I really feel rested. I think everyone should try this!

Interesting but...

Is there anything you would change about this book?

The concept of earthing is very interesting and I appreciate the fact that this author has shared his findings. However, I stopped listening at the half way mark because it started to read more like a sales pitch/infomercial rather than an informative wellness book.

Earthing Brought Me Bliss!

This book and this information in it have changed my life. My grounding kit is on it’s way. I binged listened to your book. Bought two hard copies already. Thank you for your dedication to the work you love.

I am so excited to see how this shifts the lives of my family and clients. Oh and students! I love to share knowledge and will share earthing and your book with everyone I meet. It will be easy since I live in Sedona! Surreal if you think about it. I moved their to fully heal my auto-immune following my gut that the earth would heal me. And so it is.... thanks for giving my gut instinct facts to back it up!

great information!

this really opened my eyes up to so much. I'm very grateful for the work he's done and his research. Cant wait to get my whole family grounded! my only complaint about this performance is that when he'd announce a new chapter there would be no pause or anything. if you blinked, you'd miss it.

70% testimonials

This book is interesting but literally nearly all testimonials. I kept waiting for more info... it didn’t come. Slightly disappointed.

Amazing Therapy!.

I learned about earthing a couple of years ago but did not get serious about learning more til finding this book. I was amazed at the information. I decided it was worth a try. I have trouble sleeping and have had anxiety since childhood. I am sleeping very deeply, falling asleep fast instead of lying awake, and I have no anxiety. That part is a miracle for me. It was worth much more than the price of this book. I have tried so many other things and spent so much money. Thank you so much to all involved.

world's longest infomercial

Grounding is real and scientifically proven, however, this book is more of a sales pitch then an educational resource.

Fabulous information!

I loved this book. Narration was easy to listen to. After taking Protandim supplement for 11 months and getting good results, I set out on a search for a less costly way to heal, deal with free radicals. I am excited because I am out to,g my bare feet on the ground for 30 minutes a day while we wait for our indoor Earthing supplies to arrive. I feel much benefit from my sessions, such as sleeping better and general anxiety of daily life is gone! That's. just in 4 days.!

Common Sense

I was a little sceptical when I ordered this book, but as I listened i realised that the theory made a lot of sense. For months I have been plagued with neck and shoulder pain, waking up with it several times a night and waking up in the morning in agony. I had tried every arrangement of pillows possible and nothing was working. I decided to make up a makeshift earthing pad ( an old sheet, some metal tape (VERY uncomfortable but does the job) some regular copper cable and a piece of copper pipe hammered into the ground) and had the best nights sleep I have had in months. Having felt the benefits of the homemade version I am awaiting arrival of a commercially made one which I hope will be more comfortable. The testimonials were convincing, especially the Tour de France rider in 2005 who was able to compete the following day after he went through the rear windscreen of one of the support cars cutting himself up pretty badly. I have found this audio so helpful that I have ordered the hard copy too so that I can let my family read about it. Read it, do it, feel the benefits!!!!

Educational, but full of fluff

The first few chapters are fantastic, providing plenty of interesting facts that serve as a motivational wake up call. However, there are hours of testimonials for grounding, which I found Repetitive and unnecessary- a brief summary of each case would have sufficed. The last two chapters are also useful.

Now We Have The Science For What Has Always Bern There!

I’ve had this book on my shelf for about 2 years unread, and now having listened to the audio reading, I am about to listen all over again, before reading the text also. What illuminating content. Which resonances so true! How amazing, this knowledge that our Earth has a battery like surface what will freely give off its free electrons to any being on the plant, connecting with their naked self - the feet. I resonate profoundly with this natural process & am beginning to work more consciously with barefoot walking, and sleeping on a grounding mat. I would like to try grounding shoes next as I live in a big city. And so far, I’m noticing benefits in sleeping (duration & quality); in well-being; in feeling connected to nature (and the spirit of life).

This audio book should be listened to and studied in schools, universities, to new mothers, hospital staff & patients, everybody. The audio is an easy listen, clear, and engaging. A great way to learn & absorb even when busy and on the move. I’m in holiday right now, and holidays are beginning to have a new meaning for me in terms of how to make the best use of them. Observe sun energy yes of course, but now - use it as a retreat into places & spaces that allow ideal ground connectivity (wet sands & soil). This holiday is my healing retreat. Insulating shoes from the Earth is a real ignorance to our symbiotic relationship to life. Feet + Earth = Health & Healing. Thank you Audible for making this book more accessible, for those who are interested in the topic, and those who will discover it. I will DEFINITELY be keeping this one!
