Lots of people notice an improvement in their health when they go on holiday - skin ailments particularly seem to clear up when exposed to a bit of sun and salty sea water. Is it the minerals in the sea? the sunshine on the skin? or the lack of stress when you eventually relax? A book I've just enjoyed reading suggests that it might be the benefit of bare feet, with their rich network of nerve endings, connecting with the abundant supply of health-promoting free electrons all over the surface of the earth.
Our bodies are electrical - think of the heartbeat and nerve connections - and so is the earth. People who work on computer components and electrical chips have to be grounded in order not to damage the components electrically.
From our ancient roots of walking barefoot and sleeping on the earth we have become totally disconnected by the wearing of shoes, sleeping in beds off the ground, and being surrounded by technology. One way to re-connect is to walk barefoot on the ground whenever possible. Give yourself a free health treatment by standing, walking or sitting with bare feet on the ground for 30 - 40 minutes twice a day.
'Earthing' by Clinton Ober, Stephen T Sinatra M.D. and Martin Zucker reveals the science behind our connection to the earth and provides evidence of a vast array of symptoms improved by grounding. They also suggest various other grounding techniques.
