Why is earthing important for our health? How to connect to the earth even in winter (NOT in a “new agey” way)

Why is Earthing Important

Why is earthing important for our health?  What IS “earthing” or “grounding”?

Did you know that we should all make time to connect to the earth?  Or that we can get the benefits of being grounded to the earth even if you're not outside enough, or if it's winter where you are and you can't go barefoot?  And that this can help your body feel less of the negative effects of the increased exposure to electronics in our world, and also improve your sleep and decrease chronic pain?!

At first I thought it sounded too “new agey” for me, or a little “woo woo”, until I learned more.  If you wonder why is earthing important for our health, check this out:

Why is Earthing Important

Think of it as “dirt therapy”!  

connect to the earth

This whole concept was completely new to me until I was given an Earthing book at a Wise Traditions conference and have been fascinated ever since.

So why is earthing important and what is Earthing? (Or it's also sometimes called: Grounding.)

Basically, it's a way to get the benefits of walking barefoot on the grass or on the beach, without going outside.  

We all feel better after we're outside and connect to the earth in these ways, right?

By sitting or sleeping with your bare skin touching special conductive mats (connected via a grounded outlet), many feel better, sleep better, experience healing from inflammatory issues, and have more energy.  From the kinds of shoes we all wear now to the fact that most of us rarely touch our bare feet to the ground anymore, we've lost our connection to the powerful healing energy in the earth itself.

And I'm not talking about a ‘new age' type of ‘spiritual energy', because true spiritual energy comes straight from God who created the earth, I'm just talking about actual energy from the earth, which is how God designed it, and it's powerful.

Recently I spoke with Norm from Radiant Life and asked him a few questions…

  • Is the danger from cell phone/cell phone tower radiation the same as the danger of exposure to electro-magnetic fields (EMFs)?

Norm:  No, these are two different things.  Both are dangerous, and both affect the body differently.  We should be protecting ourselves the best we can from both. 

EMFs are sometimes referred to as “dirty electricity”.  Even your lamp or clock radio by your bed that is turned off can be problematic for those who are extra sensitive.  It's the electricity right in the wires that can find its way outside of the wires.  If you want to see how strong the EMFs may be in your own home, you could use a Gauss meter.  It will beep a lot behind the frig, or near the microwave, especially when it's on, and even near a wall with live wires.  We are bombarded, night and day, in some places of our homes worse than others.

  • When we connect to the earth, or practice earthing using these products, does it protect us against harmful EMFs?

Norm:  Earthing products like Earthing sheets or Earthing mats are not an EMF shield and do not block EMFs, but because they are plugged into the earth's energy, they allow the body to absorb current from the earth, and can mitigate the effects of EMFs by acting as an antioxidant in the body to attack free radicals.

Those who are young may not feel like they are affected by EMFs, but they will have an effect over time.  Free radicals will build up.  Grounding is a way to counteract or minimize these effects. 

Here's where to buy earthing sheets (see ours above) or earthing mats (see mine below) so you can get the benefits even if it's winter where you are!

(Note:  Make sure that when you or your kids are working on any handheld or portable devices while they're charging, that it is plugged into a grounded outlet.  It will have 3 prongs instead of 2 where it's plugged in, and use an outlet checker to make sure it does have the ground wire in the wall.  OR just have them use the devices with battery power.)

  • What about cell phones?Radiation Protection Tips and Products

Norm:  The jury is still out on how dangerous those are because they haven't been around all that long yet.  To be safe, these should not be held close to your head and for SURE not close to your kids' heads.  Sleeping with it completely off or far away from you is also a very good precaution.  (Note:  We use these DefenderShield products to block the dangerous radiation from cell phones, tablets and laptops!  Read my DefenderShield review here.)

  • When we connect to the earth, or practice earthing using these products, does it mitigate the effects of cell phone radiation as well?

Norm:  Yes, earthing actually mitigates the effects for both of these dangers.  Studies have shown that if you're talking on your cell phone, it at least helps to be earthed to guard against the negative effects of the radiation.  Now, it's just like your food sources.  There's good, better, and best.  Best would be not using a cell phone at all, but since most of us aren't going to do that, better is to take precautions. 

  • What about cordless phones connected to a land line in our homes?

Norm:  With these you also have the added concern of a different type of EMF because of the phone's battery – electromagnetic radiation.  Again, there aren't enough studies yet to show that these are better or worse than cell phones and what effect they'll have on the human body.

  • If we connect to the earth, can we not worry at all about cell phone radiation or EMFs or cordless phones?

Norm:  No, earthing shouldn't give you a false sense of security.  It doesn't take away these health risks.  It's just BETTER, especially for someone on the computer a lot or plugged in in other ways. It's better to talk on the phone while your feet are barefoot on the ground or while they're on an earthing mat.  We live in the 21st century, so the best most of us can do is to minimize the impact with earthing or using grounding products.   (I took his advice and ordered a mat for when I'm working on my computer. –>) 

  • Here's a good clarification from Claus in the comments:

I am distributing the products in Denmark and have a comment in regards to EMF’s. It is said above that Earthing does not protect against EMF’s. Well, it does protect against ELF’s (low frequency radiation – 50/60Hz) coming from ordinary electrical wires, lamps and appliances. In other words, you connect to the earth, you are part of the earth and are ‘bypassed’ by this radiation.”

Still not sure what to think?  Still wondering why is earthing important or want to learn more?

Check out these articles with more information:

  • ESD Journal – Conclusions:  “The important finding of this study is that the human body when grounded is naturally protected from static electricity and the weak electric currents created in the body by radiated electric fields. The benefits of grounding the body are: sleep significantly improves, muscles relax, chronic back and joint pain subsides and general health improves.”
  • Can electrons act as antioxidants?

    Thank you for this informative post about electrical grounding mats! Grounding mats are an often overlooked yet essential component of electrical safety in various settings. They provide an effective way to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) and protect both personnel and sensitive electronic equipment.

    I appreciate the clear explanation of how grounding mats work and their benefits in dissipating static charges, reducing the risk of electrical shocks, and preventing damage to valuable equipment. As someone in the electronics industry, I can’t emphasize enough how crucial it is to have proper grounding solutions in place.

    Your post serves as a valuable reminder of the importance of safety measures like grounding mats in our daily operations. Keep up the great work in promoting electrical safety awareness!

    Hi, Kelly,
    I used an earthing mat for a few months and loved it. I slept great and generally had a better sense of well-being. BUT, I’ve stopped using mine because I learned from an EMF specialist that it’s much better to plug your earthing mat directly into the ground rather than through a grounding port in a home’s electrical system. He said some bad EMFs can go through your grounding mat into your body if you plug into a grounding port.
    I don’t know enough about EMFs and electricity to know whether he’s correct, but this guy runs a local business helping people reduce their exposure to EMFs, and he really seemed to know his stuff. Just wanted to pass this info along so you can look into it if you’d like.
    By the way, I’ve learned lots of really helpful info from your blog and newsletter over the years. Thanks for all you do!

      Okay Jennifer, here’s what Radiant Life said:

      “In general, modern day home electrical grounding systems work very well for most people with earthing/grounding products. However, there are three particular situations where connecting the earthing device directly into the earth with the use of a grounding rod and a long wire is preferred:

      1. Older homes – Many older homes may not ever have been properly grounded to the earth despite having new electrical outlets installed with ground ports.
      2. Mis-wired homes – Home electrical outlets can be mis-wired. A common error occurs when the ground wire and neutral wire are installed in the reverse. This can be checked with an outlet wire checker available at hardware stores.
      3. High frequency electrical “noise” emitted by electrical appliances and motors running in the home (e.g. refrigerators/freezers). This “noise” radiates into the general living area as EMFs. However, even with such “noise”, the use of an electrical ground system for earthing is safe for most people using personal grounding devices such as a grounding mat. The real concern is the potential disturbance that electrical “noise” may have on the nervous system of electrically sensitive people. The best earthing option for these people is to bypass the electrical system and connect outside directly to the earth using a grounding rod. We supply grounding rods and wire with all of our products.”

      Hope that helps!
      Kelly

    So Kelly…I’m interested in trying some Earthing products but I’m curious to know what you think of them months later. Do you see any benefits?

    Thanks!

      Well the problem is (and it’s obviously not really a problem!) that I am blessed to feel great all of the time – no health issues, good energy, etc., so for me the earthing products are “insurance” – something I use to mitigate any future issues from all the time I spend using electronics.

        Makes sense. Thanks for sharing.
        Do you recommend the half sheet or the full sheet for your bed and does it stand up pretty well to washing?

          We don’t wash it each time we change bedding, only occasionally, but yes it holds up well.

          I’d probably recommend the full sheet because the half sheet bugs Kent how it tends to bunch up!

            So I’m understanding this correctly, you sleep on the sheet itself or under your normal sheet?

              On the sheet itself, you need to be touching the sheet to get the benefits.

    I sooo want to try one of these! The dangers of electronics freak me out but unfortunately its something we have to live with and be cautious of. I am much more cautious of our use after a high-school friend of mine passed away recently after a six month fight with brain cancer. She was my age (27) and had two very young boys. Now my boys are limited and we try to unplug things around us at night (and turn of cells)

    Having to use a manmade mat to connect to the earth is a sad commentary on how far mankind in general has deviated from his original purpose and design…

    I guess I just don’t get what all the fuss about earthing is. Going barefoot is one of life’s simple pleasures – why mess with that?

    Hi,
    I am distirbuting the products in Denmark and have a comment in regards to EMF’s. It is said above that Earthing does not protect against EMF’s. Well, it does protect against ELF’s (low frequency radiation – 50/60Hz) coming from ordinary electrical wires, lamps and appliances. In other words, when connected to the earth, you are part of the earth and are ‘bypassed’ by this radiation.

    I find this topic very interesting. I certainly do not want to get into New Age. However, we were not born with shoes on or with concrete all over the earth. I believe we must derive some benefit from the Earth when we walk barefoot. People in villages do not wear shoes. I recently heard about how “soft” our feet are compared to the Native Americans. It also went on to describe how to toughen them up so we could run through the woods as the Native Americans did. When they ran they did not have time to tip toe through the rocks and sticks. They also ran and walked softer or they would have starved because they would have scared the deer away as they approached. So, there had to have been something different. I find this all very interesting how God has provided for us before Monsanto, shoes, electricity, etc. While we think our life is better off, I wonder.
