The Ultimate Antioxidant - Grounding With Mother Earth baby! Can you dig it?
Recent research has shown that your immune system functions optimally when your body has an adequate supply of electrons, which are easily and naturally obtained by barefoot contact with the Earth. Electrons from the Earth have antioxidant effects that can protect your body from inflammation and its many well documented health consequences.
The Earth maintains a negative electrical potential on its surface (not to be confused with direct or alternating currents present in our homes and environment!) . When you walk, sit, or lay down on the earth's surface, the electrons are conducted to your body, bringing it to the same electrical potential as the earth. Living in direct contact with the earth grounds your body, inducing favorable physiological and electrophysiological changes that promote optimum health.
So the Earth is a natural source of electrons which are essential for proper functioning of our immune systems, circulation, and may actually be the most effective, essential, least expensive and easiest to attain antioxidant.
grazin in the grass is a gas baby can you dig it. . . .
This is such an interesting post. Since, we've had grandchildren, my children ask us not to put chemicals on our backyard grass prior to and during the summer. We haven't and have still managed to have a green lawn. When I walk out there barefoot, I honestly feel better. In addition when practicing yoga, my instructor mentions often to train your body to be rooted to your mat all the way to mother-earth ... a very good feeling!
ReplyDeleteGood point about the chemicals! I need to carve out an area in my small yard that I know is chemical free. Barefoot gardening!
