The hippies were right all along! Grounding yourself with the Earth, will actually decrease inflammation in the body. Scientific research now confirms this and since we're now also discussing healthy living on this board, I thought I'd let you guys know. This actually seems like a really big missing piece of our health puzzle.
What it comes down to is that your cells are batteries and if you don't ground yourself this will result in a constant 2v charge in your body. This results in inflammation in the body which is a root cause of many problems in the body.
This is an hour long documentary on the subject. If you want to skip to the science part, go to the 26:55 mark.

There are several websites where you find products that help you to ground yourself during the day or while sleeping.
Humans were designed to live outdoors amongst nature. We technically aren’t designed to wear clothes either, but the world is too fallen to really go back to our roots. Grounding and getting a good amount of sun help our bodies self heal as well.
Yes, by using rubber soles we have disconnected ourselves from the Earth.
How aren't we designed to wear clothes?? We have no fur in the cold. White people get sunburns. Bugs annihilate us.
We’ve adapted over time (obviously) but Gods original design had us living nude amongst everything else in nature. That’s why we have pubic hair, to protect delicate areas, and the ability to adapt to areas because of the melanin in our skin. We’re talking thousands of years since that original implementation and the first humans had all the information written into their DNA to allow us to function as we do now.
