Have you ever wondered why feel so relaxed and calm when walking barefoot on the beach or going camping in the wilderness? One of the theories behind why we are experiencing anxiety, insomnia, and many of the chronic health challenges we are today is because are not connected with many of the natural frequencies found in nature. Since the dawn of man, we have spent much of our time in nature and walked barefoot, and, in doing so, connected with the natural frequencies of the earth, called the Schumann Resonance. The Schuman resonance, is a very low vibration, around 7.83 Hz, thought to be generated by the thousands of lightning strikes on the earth every second. When we connect to this low-level vibration, our bodies can experience profound calming, anti-inflammatory, and immune-supportive effects. Unfortunately, we are surrounded by artificial frequencies that disrupt our natural biorhythms. For example, most of our homes have electrical and heating, and air systems that run at about 60 Hz. In addition to this, we are surrounded by a sea of other unnatural frequencies, from cell phone towers, routers, cell phones, etc., Similar to a tuning fork, our bodies entrain to these higher frequencies which can lead to chronic, low-grade inflammation, agitation, and anxiety. However, we can obtain the healing effects of the earth by walking barefoot, or getting out into nature every day. Of course, the problem for most people is walking around barefoot outside is not necessarily practical or feasible in our modern times. Therefore, we suggest putting your feet on a grounding mat while working on your computer especially, and sleeping on a grounding mat at night. In this way, you can get the same effects as being in nature! All you need to get started is a $30 grounding mat* (sheets are a little more expensive).

*If using a grounding mat, to avoid any interference from dirty electricity, it is best to keep plugged into a seltzer filter. For more info, see https://greenwavefilters.com/store-front/
