Grounding: The Simple Practice with Big Benefits

For most of human history, people lived in direct contact with the Earth — walking barefoot, sleeping close to the ground, and farming with their hands. Today, with insulated shoes and urban living, we are more disconnected than ever.

Grounding, also known as “earthing,” is the practice of reconnecting with the Earth’s subtle electrical energy. Research suggests grounding may help:

• Reduce inflammation
• Improve circulation
• Support better sleep
• Lower stress levels

You don’t have to walk barefoot outside every day to benefit. Grounding mats and conductive fabrics can help bring the Earth’s connection indoors, making it easier to integrate into modern life.

This simple practice is an easy way to restore balance and improve overall well-being.
