Earthing Our Homes – Grounded Floors?

By Chet Zebroski

In the previous post we mentioned we would expand on the concept of Earthing in our homes. As curious designers we ordered a continuity tester from Earthing.com to determine if our floors are grounded in our homes. One has a raised floor with slate tiles which contact a masonry fireplace with a concrete foundation and the other has a slate tile floor over a concrete slab floor. To our surprise, both of our homes have large areas of tile that are well Earthed, or grounded. We can see by using the device that when we stand on the tiled surfaces of our homes, negative electrons are entering our bodies, grounding us and creating the Umbrella Effect.

What’s so good about that? In addition to the previous article’s list of benefits, one not mentioned is that negative electrons are a source of natural antioxidants! Here’s a paste from an article at Mercola.com “The Ultimate Antioxidant: Fight Premature Aging for Free”

“…Earthing systems have emphasized the fact that Earthing greatly reduces your exposure to fields from electrical wiring, using evidence provided by the body voltage meter as shown above. While this is probably correct, reducing exposure to power frequency fields (including dirty electromagnetic fields) is definitely not the most important consequence of Earthing. Far more significant for health is the ability of Earthing systems to deliver antioxidant electrons that stabilize the operation of the immune system and other physiological processes in the body.”

Here’s a link to the article: http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2012/11/04/why-does-walking-barefoot-on-the-earth-make-you-feel-better.aspx

So, beyond shielding us from potentially destructive EMF radiation, Earthing is also a natural source of antioxidants which have the capacity to improve our overall health! Stay tuned and get grounded!

EMF’s and Grounding – Earthing

Health

By Chet Zebroski

The concept of Earthing is a recent development. The book “Earthing, The most important health discovery ever?” shares the process of discovery and development of the concept of Earthing, or reconnecting one’s self to Earth.

Our bodies are bioelectrical marvels that evolved in direct contact with mother earth. It’s a fact that both the earth and our bodies have an electro/magnetic field surrounding us all the time. We evolved in this manner.

Over the last many decades we have been separated from earth contact by the use of synthetic lined shoes, wood framed floors, multi story housing and offices, etc. We contact the earth far less than our ancestors did. That’s an undeniable fact. In addition, in the same timeframe, technologies have evolved to include new EMF fields that appear to be having a negative effect on our health. Coincidently, we see an increase in health issues in face of medical advances.

While our earlier posts on the subject of EMF’s related to devices that harmonize with or block/redirect the field as means of providing a sense of safety, this post focuses on a completely different approach. According to research, Earthing provides a free flow of negative electrons fed from the earth to counter the multiple effects of inflammation caused by radiation, or exposure to EMF’s. This graphic from page 80 captures the shielding effect quite well:

Our exposure to this new level of radiation (EMF’s) is just one form of pollution which create the inflammation in our blood cells which then may cause disorder in our health. Here’s a list of health issues related to inflammation from pg 63:

The photo below shows how Earthing regularly can assist in the decoupling our blood cells, pg 175.

This discovery is directly related to the concept of a Healthy Home. Following up on this important information we invested in a number of Earthing devices. It occurs to us we should be able to design for a well grounded structure. We’ll follow up on this in our next article on EMF’s.

In the meantime, keep that cell phone away from your head and do what you can to keep grounded!
