Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
Very good interesting thanks for sharing. I follow a lot of natural medicine accounts on instagram and I’ve seen many posts of people grounding themselves with the earth. Hope I’m saying this correctly, has to do with natural electric currents in the earth. I haven’t researched this or cared to it’s a little out there for me. If it makes someone happy go for it, just not my thing.
Interesting you said that… my mom bought grounding sheets for me for my birthday and she got us at herself. She’s never slept better. I sleep much better than I used to, and I do feel like being grounded to the Earth does heal your body. I know that when I’m in Hawaii, I always feel 10 times better than Arizona. But I’m in the ocean three or four times a week, and that’s a grounding force as well.., not just the ground and bare feet, but swimming in any open natural form of water. I haven’t done a ton of it research on this, but I do believe in frequency being healing, and I know that earth has frequency. I think we live our life’s in shoes, constantly in shoes. Our Barefeet have to connect with the Earth, not carpet, not tile, but with the Earth. Hard to do that in the city, or other places for that matter. I rarely wear shoes anymore. It’s always sandals, flip-flops, or bare feet in the house. But I’m really not sure that bare feet on carpet, and the tile floor are the same as touching dirt or grass. The sheets aren’t that expensive, and they really do work. I have two pillowcases as well, and I take one of them with me when I’m pet sitting. I really do believe in this grounding stuff.
