Earthing

[cableann]

Ann Louise is so amazing and her wisdom NEVER ceases to amaze me. I'm so glad she introduced me and my family to earthing, it is truly a wonderful remedy for so many things. I've been having issues with circulation and numbness in my right foot and my toes remain numb most hours of the day. About a week ago while thumbing through Zapped something clicked and I just got up and walked outside barefooted and within 3 minutes the feeling in my toes returned!! Now, with just 10 min outside a day in the last week I've had NO numbness, that's amazing. I truly thank God for the day the FFP came into my life and am so indebted to ALG, she is such a gracious giver! She helps the world with her desire to stay healthy! I challenge everyone to go outside and ground for a min of 10 minutes and see if you don't feel amazing!

I absolutely love Earthing too In the summer, I can't get enough of walking on the beach. It is so energizing and healing! In the winter here, however, there is no way I'm going outside barefoot! So I use the Earthing wrist band while I sleep, read, or watch tv- it has been a blessing.

Hello all, I have been reading the interesting information about earthing and the products. It occurred to me that we should be careful what we wear on our feet... especially rubber shoes such as flip-flops and crocs. I am guilty of having worn crocs quite a lot, almost as slippers, because they are so comfortable - even if a fashion faux pas. Does anyone have any thoughts about wearing these types of shoes and sandals for long periods of time? Seems to me they would act as a barrier against natural earthing. Have recently discovered that I have fallen arches so not sure whether I had this condition prior to wearing crocs (hence how comfortable they are for hurting feet) or whether wearing crocs a lot has caused the problem. I now have to see a podiatrist to have arch supports made. Have not been able to find much info online about this, with many comments elsewhere suggesting crocs are good for your feet. There is no mention about the earthing element to wearing them. Maybe a topic for ALG to address in one of her blogs?

You are right about rubber/plastic soles insulating us from the ground. Leather soles are better. Earthing through our feet is not possible when we are indoors anyway, unless the surface is a slab right on the ground. The wrist/ankle band or the earthing mat or sheet make it possible to get that connection and experience the benefits whenever you want.

Just a FYI here - Crocs make a therapeutic version with extra supports. Wonderful for when you have to be on your feet all day on concrete. Rei makes a leather soled down bootie that would let you go outside almost barefoot in the winter.
