Grounding

Electron transfer, the original anti-inflammatory.

◦ The Science

The Earth carries a slight negative surface charge. Direct skin contact with grass, sand, or unsealed stone allows electron transfer that reduces measured inflammation markers and improves heart-rate variability.

◦ How to Practice

Walk barefoot on grass, sand, or unsealed earth for 20 minutes a day. If indoors, a grounded conductive mat connected to a properly earthed outlet works in its place.

A pine forest at dawn, soft mist drifting between trunks.
