Earthing is life changing. I discovered this book because a friend moved away and left two new earthing pillow covers that came with 2 copies of “Earthing: The most important health discovery ever!��. I was skeptical at first and pushed these books and products away at the bottom of my closet. Now, I started decluttering my house and I found them stored away and thought I had nothing to lose to try them out and give the book a read. I am pleasantly surprised by the research conducted by Clint Ober and his colleagues, in addition to how effective the Earthing pillow cover has been. I have been suffering from a stomach illness for over a year now. I have changed my diet because I’m intolerant to many foods and it’s relieved a great deal of the pain. Despite this, I’m still not cured. I’m supposed to do green juicing every morning but it’s starting to get too high maintenance.

I tried Earthing and I instantly started feeling nauseous and dizzy, the same feeling of detoxing and my stomach acid getting regulating itself. After Earthing for 3 nights I have been able to drink orange juice (which would cause severe stomach pain) that I hadn’t tried in more than a year. I’m excited to keep Earthing. One downside is that for Earthing to be effective you have to do it constantly, it’s kind of like a diet. If you eat bits of salad but your main diet is junk food then don’t expect to be healthy. Same goes for Earthing. If I only Earth for a few hours a week it’s only going to do so much. Nevertheless, I’m feeling empowered and I’m starting to understand that there are greater forces at play here, some that, if we keep ignoring our true calling and essence, can back fire on us fatally.

BY THE WAY YOU DON’T NEED THE PRODUCTS TO TRY EARTHING JUST GO INTO THE RIVER (OCEAN or SEA IS BEST BECAUSE SALT IS CONDUCTIVE), BE BAREFOOT IN THE GRASS or SAND, GO HUG A TREE IF ANYTHING! Trust, your body will thank you.

All the same, because our detrimental system pushes us to be encased in a graveyard you can try Clint Ober’s products (sheets, mats, patches) here:


If you don’t have access to the book (which explains thoroughly the science and a whooping +100 testimonials of relief from different ailments) then here’s the documentary (I have yet to watch it though):

Memorable Quotes:

“Look at what you put on your feet on a daily basis. Most of you wear one form or another of footwear that evolved from simple foot coverings designed to protect against chilly and challenging ground conditions. You are likely wearing something much more elaborate, a statement reflecting your culture, fashion, behaviour.. etc.. You habitually wear shoes even when they do not serve any practical purpose.��

“A natural gait is biomechanically impossible for any shoe-wearing person.. the plantar surface of the foot is richly covered with some 1,300 nerve endings per square inch.. to keep us in ‘touch�� with the Earth.
The foot is a kind of ‘radar sonic base�� that serves to extract energy from the Earth, similar to a plant root extracting moisture from the ground for nourishment. Such ground to root vibrations may thus be an important energizing power helping to serve the body’s life forces.��
- Dr. William Rossi

“The bottom of our footwear are virtually ‘deadened��. A cross section of a shoe reveals several layers: outsole, midsole, insole filler material, footbed, cushioning, sockliner. An almost total blockout of sensory response.�� - Dr. William Rossi

“Dr.Rossi’s lament describes in a few words the post- World War II overhaul of shoe making. New materials entered the manufacturing scene: rubber, plastic, and petrochemical compounds. They have slowly squeezed out leather as the historical source of shoe soles. Nowadays, even makers of fancy men’s dress shoes are increasingly switching to rubber, plastic, and other nonconductive material, just as casual and work shoes before them. Leather (processed from hides), a conductive material when moist, has been the traditional source of shoes and sandals. The original lightweight, softsole, heel-less and simple moccasin- a piece of crudely tanned leather that envelops the foot and is fastened on with rawhide thongs- is possibly the closest we have ever come to an ‘ideal�� shoe. It dates back more than 14,000 years.��

“For the most part, the modern structures we live in and do business in- our houses and workplaces- are also nonconductive and separate us from the Earth’s healing electrons. Think about where you spend most of your day: in an apartment, house, or office elevated from the ground, with a layer of wood, synthetic carpeting, or vinyl covering the floor. Unless you live on a dirt, cement, marble, or stone floor, it is unlikely that you are receiving any good vibes from below. Like shoes and houses, beds, to, have (d)evolved.��


Matteo Taverna (La Mission Sacré) tips of keeping contact with Earth in modern times:
“�� Walk into the wilderness and choose the grassy areas instead of the asphalt roads. Try to walk barefoot or at least with covering that allows the electrical contact or exchange��
•As often as possibke expose any part of the skin of your body to the Earth or grass, or any natural water, lake, stream, or ocean. In your garden�� moist grass is a perfect conductor.
•Lean on a tree trunk
•Bathing, especially in ocean water (because of the salts) or lake or river, is extremely good for you. If you can, walk barefoot in these waters. If you have ever done it you have already seen the benefits on your nervous system, your sleeping, your appetite, and your attitude. When you are linked to the Earth and involved in electric exchanges, you start feeling like a human being again.��



“One morning, during my long mending process, I awoke and looked outside and noticed the sky was a deeper blue and the trees were a more vibrant green than I had ever seen before. At that moment, I felt alive again but very much different from before. A stark realization came over me that I didn’t really own my home and the mountain of possessions I had. Rather, they owned me. My life had become all about taking care of my stuff. I’d spent my whole life accumulating, collecting, and taking care of it all, and trying to get more, perhaps to show off how big a success I was. I realized that I had become a slave to my possessions by my own making. At that moment, I decided to set myself free and find something to fill my life with other than possessions. ‘I don’t want anymore of this life��, I said out loud to myself. ‘I want to do something different. Whatever time I have left I want to dedicate it to something worthwhile and with purpose.’�� -Clint Ober, during a turning point in his life before having the epiphany of Grounding/Earthing


“I found information about barefoot enthusiasts who have long championed the idea of going unshod because they feel better. Some enthusiasts have formed organizations, such as the worldwide Society for Barefoot Living that promotes the benefits of taking shoes and socks off and walking naturally on the Earth. Their experience, along with medical research in the field of biomechanics, strongly suggests that many foot and back problems are partly caused by stresses and strains created by wearing shoes that force us to stand and move in ways the human body was not designed for.�� Barefoot runners get less “plantar faciitis, shin splits, and use less force on their joints��.- Clint Ober, discoveries he made in the early days trying to find evidence of Grounding.
