Benefits To Earthing

We thought it was time to take you back to our first blog, when we first started The Earthing Store, and elaborate on why you might want to practice Earthing. There are many benefits to Grounding on a daily basis that we want to highlight but first let's make sure you understand what exactly is Earthing and why it has an effect on us nowadays.




Earthing is known as the activity of being in direct contact with the Earth in which its negative Grounding charge has the opportunity to neutralize and balance out the excess of positive electrons. These positive electrons come in the form of free radicals, that we acquire on a daily basis in our bodies through the use of personal devices, microwaves, radios etc. Free radicals are not bad for us but it is the excess of them that is the issue. The problem is that nowadays people have limited time contacting the bare Earth. Less time is spent in the garden on your hands and knees, running barefoot through the sprinkler or getting buried in the sand. So it is quite easy for an excess or build up of free radicals to occur in our bodies. The simple act of Grounding, by walking barefoot on the Earth, wearing Grounding shoes, or sleeping using a Earthing aid can open up a full range of benefits to you which is why some state that Earthing may be one of the most profound health discoveries ever.

Increases Energy Level
Those who practice Grounding on a regular basis claim they have an increase in their overall energy level. This may be from the reduction of free radicals in their system or from the therapeutic time spent in the fresh outside air, barefoot. Perhaps increased energy levels could also be from getting a good night's rest due to those who sleep Grounded.

Reduces Inflammation
Even small amounts of exposure to the Earth's healing power has shown to have a positive effect on inflammation. Thermographic imaging shows a heat map of inflammation in the body. The imaging of those found to practice Grounding results in significantly less heat patterns, compared to prior to Earthing. The electron transfer of Earthing directly reduces the inflammation immediately.

Lowers Chronic Pain And Affects Autoimmune Diseases
Because Earthing reduces inflammation it also alleviates chronic pain and has a positive impact on chronic diseases as well as autoimmune diseases because both stem from inflammation in the body.

Aids In Deeper Sleep
Earthing while sleeping causes your diurnal cortisol profiles to be normalized and allow you to enter into deep, restless sleep. Those who sleep Grounded claim they sleep through the night without disturbance or discomfort and feel rested when they wake up. 

Slows Down The Aging Process
Our body's aging process is affected by free radicals. The accumulative damage to your body caused by free radicals results in this process to speed up so by practicing Earthing you can slow the aging process down by eliminating the excess of free radicals in your body.

Improves Blood Flow And Pressure
Free radicals in our bodies are a killer to antioxidants. If you practice Earthing then it's like giving your body more antioxidants and as a result has beneficial changes in your heart rate. Grounding thins your blood, making it less viscous which improves your blood flow and blood pressure.

Relieves Headaches
Headaches usually come in the form of pulsing or throbbing pain. The most natural way to battle against them is by Earthing. Because Grounding reduces inflammation, it also has a positive effect on eliminating or reducing headache and even migraine pain.

Speeds Up The Healing Process
While Earthing, the healing process speeds up because the Earth's electrons are negative, while the damaging free radicals are positive which are designed to surround the injured or damaged area of the body, so the electrons cancel each other out. In essence Grounding protects your body from its own repair process and its collateral damage.

Decreases Muscle Tension
Those who practice Grounding regularly, and find themselves with muscular pain and stiffness from strenuous or unfamiliar exercise, have been found to have fewer circulating neutrophils and lymphocytes cells. Less of these type cells indicates that the original damage resolved more quickly, collateral damage reduced, and the recovery process accelerated.

Lowers Stress Levels and Promotes Calmness
Practicing Earthing is known to balance cortisol levels which has a direct impact on your body's stress levels and results in lowering the body from "fight or flight" mode to one of calmness and stability. It does this through switching the nervous system from a sympathetic mode towards a parasympathetic state which makes the nervous system focus on homeostasis. That is, one of rest and digestion.

Lessens Menstrual And Hormonal Symptoms
Because cortisol levels are affected by Earthing, and are also directly tied to hormone levels, practicing Earthing can positively affect female hormonal symptoms as well as reduce menstrual discomfort.

Supports Adrenal Health
Earthing can eliminate adrenal fatigue which is more than just feeling tired. If your adrenal levels are low then your body and its organs cease to function at their full potential and you feel exhausted even if you've had adequate sleep. You'll find that if your adrenal levels are normalized through Earthing, your body will stop feeling like you're at rock bottom and your energy level will be significantly improved. 

Offers Protection From EMFs
Grounding reduces the effects of electromagnetic frequencies (EMF’s) that people are surrounded with due to our modern world such as computers, power lines, machinery etc. It is inevitable that we are going to come in contact with EMFs and some people develop sensitivities to them so Grounding can help balance the negative effects of them.

Shortens Recovery Time From Injury Or Athletic Activity
Practicing Grounding after an injury allows negative electrons to migrate into your body and spread through your tissues. Any positive free radicals that have leaked into the healthy tissue of your body, around where the injury has occurred, will immediately be electrically neutralized. 

Reduces Snoring
If you sleep Grounded you enter into a deeper sleep cycle and thus you breath deeper and better so snoring is lessened and even eliminated in some cases.

Eliminates Feeling of Jet Lag
People live with a built in body cycle referred to as circadian rhythm. This cycle receives external clues from our environment such as temperature, light etc. Fast, long-distance travelling disrupts our inner circadian rhythm. The condition of jet lag is the feeling your body goes through while your circadian rhythm readjusts once you've arrived at your new destination. Jet lag can last several days unless you've been practicing Grounding in some form. Earthing eliminates jet lag headaches, dizziness and tiredness. 

Improves Pregnancy
Earthing can increases fertility by normalizing hormone levels. Pregnant women report having less mood swings as stress levels are lowered as well as emotional hormones are balanced. There are more cases reported where the mother claims her energy levels are higher and labour is faster because of Grounding on a regular basis. There is also less cases of new mother's with postpartum depression who regular contact the Earth.

Helps With Self Regulation
Earthing neutralizes free radicals that kids are bombarded with such as external stimuli that come in the form of stresses - eating fast foods, bullying, excessive screen time, poor sleep habits etc. Earthing allows children to self regulate and internally adjust and choose what he or she needs to do at a particular moment. Self Regulation allows the child to think and act more clearly with the best choice and option and then the ability act on it.

Lessens Depression and Anxiety
With Earthing relating directly to cortisol levels, those who practice it are less irritable and report to feel less depressed and less anxious.

Promotes Healthy Feet
Your feet will love the benefits of Grounding. You'll find that while walking barefoot or by wearing Earthing shoes, your feet will be free from corns, blisters and soreness even after being up on them all day. 

We'd love to hear how Earthing has helped you and what areas of your life you have noticed the most improvement in. Some people attest that it took some time for them to start noticing the benefits of Earthing while others say they noticed results right away. Whatever the case was for you, we would love to hear it. Drop us a quick email and we'll add your story to our testimonial page. From The Earthing Store, we wish you happy Grounding this spring!

Chapter 2 THE BASELINE OF HEALTH

THE BASELINE OF HEALTH

Magical Herbs

  Over the years, I've lectured to thousands of people, and thousands more have read my newsletters; and, even though my message is always based on the same principle espoused by all of the miracle doctors (that the body is a holistic system and needs to be treated as such), after every lecture, after every newsletter is mailed, I nevertheless receive dozens and dozens of requests
from people desperately looking for that "magic herb" (or supplement) to "cure" themselves or their loved ones of some dreaded disease. The problem is that health doesn't work like that. First, the concept of the magic herb or supplement is a myth (more on this in a moment), and second, the legal system takes a dim view of espousing specific "cures" that do not fall within the mainstream
of modern medicine.

  Now for the good news! It doesn't matter. Everything you need to know is totally laid out in the Baseline of Health Program.

Mystical Body

  Getting rid of disease is not the big problem (Doctors do it all the time). The problem is making sure the disease doesn't return. (Something doctors don't do quite as well.) And this is where The

Baseline of Health Program comes in. This program is the synthesis of all the best that is taught by today's miracle doctors. The program is designed to empower your own body to throw off illness and keep the illness from returning. Variations of this program have proven so effective that hundreds of thousands of people have experienced remarkable healings by using it.

The Baseline Of Health

Before we can understand the program that is based on it, we first have to understand what the Baseline of Health actually is. For purposes of our discussion, we will use a simple X-Y chart to represent the state of our health. The Y axis represents the level of our health. And on the X axis, we have all the systems and organs that affect our health. These actually number in the hundreds (if not thousands), but to keep things simple on our chart, we'll just list three: the Immune System, the Circulatory System, and Control of Mutated Cells. 

For all these systems and organs there are only three lines that we are concerned with: (figure 1) 
The Line of Optimum Health. In a perfect world, our Personal Health Line would match the Line of Optimum Health. In reality, that's not achievable. So what we try to do is keep everything as close to Optimum Health as possible.

The Line of Symptoms. As long as all our organs and systems function above this line, we have no problems. But the moment any part of our Personal Health Line dips below the Line of Symptoms, problems begin to manifest. Sometimes, the problems are so slight we don't notice them at first—such as the early warning signals of heart, disease and cancer. But at a certain point, if the symptoms persist long enough, and if our Personal Health Line dips below the Line of Symptoms far enough, we take notice.

  The Death Line. If any part of our Personal Health Line touches the Death Line, we die.

  Now let's take a look at this concept in action. As an example, we'll track the case history of Jim, an average 40 year old American. Below is Jim's Personal Health Line at birth.
As we can see from Jim's line, he was born with a slight weakness (either genetic or as a result of his parents' lifestyle and environment) in his circulatory system. Note also, that at birth, Jim is in relatively good health and is symptom free (as no point of his Personal Health Line dips below the Line of Symptoms).

  Over the 40 years of his life, however, Jim has contributed to that weakness in his heart and circulatory system because of a diet high in hydrogenated oils and refined carbohydrates, folic acid
deficiency, low pH, and heavy free radical damage—to the point where his Personal Health Line has dipped below the Line of Symptoms.

Fig.1:Level of Health  versus Immune, Heart, Cancer, etc.

Fig.2:Level of Health (vertical-axis) versus
The Line of Optimum Health
The Line of Symptoms
The Death Line

 Immune, Heart, Cancer, etc. (horizontal-axis)

  As we can see from Jim's line, he was born with a slight weakness (either genetic or as a result of his parents' lifestyle and environment) in his circulatory system. Note also, that at birth, Jim is in relatively good health and is symptom free (as no point of his Personal Health Line dips below the Line of Symptoms).

  Over the 40 years of his life, however, Jim has contributed to that weakness in his heart and circulatory system because of a diet high in hydrogenated oils and refined carbohydrates, folic acid
deficiency, low pH, and heavy free radical damage—to the point where his Personal Health Line has dipped below the Line of Symptoms.

A friend of Jim's suggests he try an antioxidant supplement. Since the antioxidant addresses one of Jim's problems (free radical damage), Jim's Personal Health Line once again rises above

The Line of Symptoms (even if just by a little bit) and all of Jim's symptoms disappear.


"It's a miracle! All of my symptoms are gone. I'm cured. If you have any heart problems, or any health problems at all, you must try this supplement." Jim is so excited, he decides to promote the antioxidant company and proceeds to sell his miracle cure to everyone he meets.

  One day, he talks to Mary, who also has heart problems. Like Jim, Mary was also born with a predilection to heart problems; and like Jim she has managed to exacerbate that problem through folic acid deficiency, low pH, and a high stress work environment.

Jim convinces Mary to buy a supply of his "miracle" antioxidant; and, as recommended by Jim, Mary starts gulping down handfuls of her daily dose. But unlike Jim, Mary has very little free radical
damage. (Let's say she loves Italian food with real olive oil and red wine—two foods that, over the years, have mitigated any free radical damage she might have been exposed to.) The net result is that Mary notices no change in her condition (See figure 7)

  Mary now proceeds to tell Jim that he's crazy. Whatever benefit he got from the antioxidant is purely a placebo effect. It's a waste of money. Of course, later on, when Mary enters a stress management
program, or has heart bypass surgery, she now tells everyone she knows that she's found the real cure for heart disease and recommends to all her friends that they do the same. (It's worth
noting that the antioxidant did, in fact, significantly improve the overall level of her Personal Health Line, but since Mary didn't feel any difference, she incorrectly assumed that she had received no benefit.)

  The bottom line is that the same supplement used by two different people for the same condition produced two entirely different results. What does that mean? It means that gulping down
"miracle herbs" and "miracle supplements" to treat disease is like trying to hit a clay pigeon in the sky, with a 22-caliber rifle . . . while blindfolded. The odds are very much against you.

  The secret to health, the secret to all the success that the great alternative healers share, is that they look to raise every inch of a person's Personal Health Line. If you do that, if you raise the entire
line, the odds are in your favor. In fact, it's almost impossible to miss. Specifically, the body systems and topics that we're going to address throughout the rest of this book are:

1. Intestinal cleansing, detoxification, and rebuilding. Cleaning out the elimination channels is fundamental to any health building program.

2. Probiotics. As a result of chlorinated/fluorinated/treated water and antibiotics and pesticides in our food, we have virtually eliminated an essential component of health and well-being. There can be no true health or relief from disease until we rebuild it.

3. Enzymes. Modern man is the only animal that eats a diet almost entirely devoid of live enzymes. As a result, virtually every American has an enlarged pancreas by the time he/she is 40 and a significantly diminished life expectancy.

4. Diet. Every cell, every system, every organ in our bodies is produced from the food we eat. Sorry, but you can't make a healthy body from a diet predominantly comprised of potato chips and diet soda.

5. Vitamins, Minerals, and Phytochemicals. Supplementation of some kind is mandatory. But with so many products and companies pitching the next wonder supplement, how can you tell which is best?

6. Herbs. The great herbalists don't just cure colds; they cure cancer!

7. Free Radicals and Antioxidants. Scientists now know that free radicals play a major role in the aging process as well as in the onset of cancer, heart disease, stroke, arthritis, and possibly allergies and a host of other ailments. But which antioxidants work best for you?

8. Hormonal Balance. Each and every day we are exposed to thousands and thousands and thousands of chemicals that work to destroy the hormonal balance of our bodies—with disastrous effects. Correcting these imbalances can save our health—and our sanity!!

9. Water. Unknowingly, 53,000,000 Americans drink tap water that is polluted by feces, radiation, or other contaminants. Half of all Americans drink water that has been used at least once before.

10. Your Mouth. A visit to your dentist could be deadly — unless you know what to look out for.

11. Cleansing Your Liver and Blood. Our liver is the primary filter of our body. Over time we so abuse it and so overtax it that illness is the inevitable result. Our blood is filled with many impurities including everything from an overabundance of artificial fats to toxic heavy metals. These must be removed for optimum health.

12. The Immune System. In many ways, your immune system is the most awesome system in your body, easily rivaling your brain in terms of complexity, subtlety, and self-awareness. And yet, we seem to do everything in our power to destroy it. For example, just one can of soda pop can depress your immune system by some 50% for as long as six hours. There is no chance for good health, or the elimination of disease, until your immune system has been
optimized.

13. The Thought That Kills. What we think (and how we think) does absolutely (and unequivocally) affect our health. Or as Dr. John Chirstopher was fond of saying, "Most people need a colonic between the ears."

14. Exercise. It does everything from improving the health of the heart to building up your bones and speeding up the elimination of toxins from your body. The bottom line is that you must "move or die."

15. Energy. All life is energy. Optimize that energy and you optimize your health. Charge your body with the right frequencies and you prevent disease.

16. Cancer. The incidence of cancer is soaring—up between 800% to 1,700% in the last 100 years (depending on whose numbers you look at).

  In the last chapter, once you've learned the hows, whys, and wherefores of health, we will cut to the chase. I will detail specific recommendations on what you can do to build your baseline
of health, day-by-day. I will outline a step-by-step program (based on all that has been learned from the miracle doctors and from over 30 years of my own work in cutting edge nutritionals) for optimizing your health and eliminating disease from your body.


So with that in mind, let's look, step by step, at how we maximize our Personal Health Line.
