Grounding anyone?

Grounding was just feeling the earth under your feet in my hippy dippy days, I still like to be barefoot were possible.

Same here 😀
I googled grounding mats after reading the OP, after reading various sites decided not to buy one but to be barefoot as often as possible

In India, the poor villagers, mostly walk barefoot. That’s probably the reason, they always seem happy and contented.

Interesting crazyH. When I was planning my first trip to India I was worried about how I’d manage child poverty, street dogs etc. A friend of Indian heritage told me I’d adjust to the culture, and welcome the relaxed, happy people. I’m not minimising the poverty and deprivation but - people were so friendly and smiling (mostly)

Although I’ve never heard of grounding, I do find that feeling the floor under my feet, indoors in the evenings, no shoes or slippers, helps with peripheral neuropathy and restless legs. I think it’s worth a try.

Yes Iam64 - I’m glad you found them friendly. Indians in general are extremely friendly and generous. If you happen to casually visit an Indian home at lunchtime, you will not be allowed to leave without partaking of the lunch. As they say here, the kettle is always on the boil, in India, the rice is always on the boil 😂

I recently purchased one, but haven’t set it up yet, because the company don’t recommend use with an electric blanket.
I’ve tried everything to help insomnia over the years, this is my latest hope, I’m really pleased it’s having a positive impact for you ferry, slight change of subject, but I am also having a course of reiki, which I hope might help, when you are seriously sleep deprived, anything is worth a go!

“You can use our grounding rod. Stick it into the earth and run the 40 foot long cord into your home, then plug it into your GroundingWell Product”.
Why does it say in the advert I saw that I might need a grounding rod?

Alas, I have always been a walking in bare feet on the grass, person and revelling in it, but sadly now am type 2 diabetic and they are very hot on us wearing slippers or shoes etc and not risking any problems with feet. It makes me sad to think how much I miss that chance to feel the earth and everything, stones grass, sand soil whatever.

So, if there is no problem for you enjoy touching the earth and the grass etc while you can.

Yes, I found this when working with families of Indian origin - I’d be offered a bowl of curry whatever time of day I arrived
