What Is Grounding?
Grounding connects your body back to the Earth.
The Earth carries a subtle, constant negative electric charge, created by sunlight and atmospheric activity. When you’re grounded, electrons flow into your body, helping it align with the Earth’s natural frequencies.
Our rubber-soled shoes and insulated buildings with artificial flooring, block this connection. But when you reconnect, your body returns to a more natural electrical state. Millions of people say they feel the difference—more calm, more clear, and more balanced.
This is more than wellness. It’s physics. And it starts beneath your feet.
Your body needs grounding, just like your home.
Your body runs on electricity. Your heart beats, your brain thinks, your muscles move, and your immune system responds—all using tiny electrical signals. Just like a house needs grounding to stay safe and stable, your body needs a connection to the Earth for the same reasons.
When that connection is lost, an important part of how your body stays working properly is missing. Most people don't realize that being un-grounded can affect how they feel.
By reconnecting with the Earth with Earthing products, you help restore balance to your body.
The Earth is your natural source of energy.
Think of the Earth like a giant battery, constantly charged by the sun and alive with subtle electric pulses.
It's negative charge is created by a mix of sunlight, atmospheric activity, lightning, and rain. When you touch the Earth, either with your bare skin or with an Earthing product, you absorb free electrons from its surface.
These electrons are nature’s built-in tool to help all living systems stay in rhythm and balance - plants, animals, and humans. Modern life with rubber shoes, synthetic flooring, and indoor living, disconnects us.
Grounding reconnects you. And your body feels the difference.
Our ancestors didn’t have to think about grounding, it was just part of life.
They spent their days walking barefoot, sleeping close to the ground, and working outdoors with their hands and feet in the soil. From morning to night, their bodies were in near-constant contact with the Earth’s surface. This natural connection helped support balance, rhythm, and well-being. Grounding wasn’t something they had to practice—it was something they lived.
Today, that connection is mostly gone. We wear rubber-soled shoes and live in buildings that block the Earth’s natural charge. We spend nearly all our time inside, surrounded by electronics and disconnected from the planet beneath us.
Our lifestyle leaves our bodies missing something important: the steady flow of free electrons that keeps us in balance. Without it, we carry around too much positive charge, which throws our electrical systems out of sync.
PUT YOUR BARE FEET ON THE EARTH'S NATURAL SURFACES!
Our ancestors were grounded 24/7, so the more you get grounded the better. 30 minutes is the minimum amount of time recommended to be grounded each day.
- GRASS, SAND, DIRT & SOIL
- PLANTS & LIVING TREES (especially with wet bark)
- GRAVEL & ROCK (that is touching the earth)
- UNSEALED CONCRETE (or coated with a water-based sealant)
- UNSEALED BRICK (or coated with a water-based sealant)
- BODIES OF WATER (like oceans, lakes, and streams)
If you can't get grounded outside, start Earthing inside!
Depending on where you live and what season it is, it’s not always possible to be outdoors barefoot every day. Plus, with work, family, and other responsibilities, it can be difficult to find time each day to be barefoot outside. The solution? This is where Earthing® products come in.
