Ideas Behind Using Earthing Sheets Or Grounding Pads

By Cornelia White


Many people often wonder what is it that makes earthing sheets or pads do that is different from most other sheets and pads. Basically they will contain micro fibers made from copper or silver that helps conduct any excess electricity built up inside the body. They fit around the mattress which some one sleeps on. When their body comes into contact with these fibers while sleeping and resting it acts as a ground to the earth.

They basically accomplish this through the use of a grounding strap. One side goes into the pad or sheet. The other side is plugged in the grounding plug of any grounded or GFI outlet with a grounding tab. With this simple setup all the excess electricity a body takes in over a month, week or day will be siphoned away from them through the grounding strap into the earth.

Not surprisingly this is based on old middle eastern ideas and often shows surprising benefits for most people who do practice using them. It is unusual to know that in the recent past few hundred years people have lost a basic vitality to their health. Diseases that are related to a high ratio of free radicals have become far more prevalent worldwide.

The basic reasoning behind this idea is based on the thought that the earth is negatively charged. The human body generates and stores electricity in various ways. Just moving through the open air can often cause small static charges to build up in peoples' body. This may cause various things to happen within the body like muscle fatigue, increased blood pressure and headaches. Grounding may help to eliminate these charges and their possible negative effects.

Another critical issue is the increasingly widespread EMF fields that are surrounding everybody. It is a simple fact that everywhere you look everyone is constantly bombarded with a wide spectrum of various radiation from different things like household electrical appliances, computers, microwave ovens and mobile phones. There is also directed radiation from TV and radio broadcasts, wifi and power line radiation.

This radiation can disrupt the natural flow of the electricity in a body. It may also amplify it in places where there should not be any or does not normally occur. Human bodies evolved when none of these items were present and therefore has no true defense for them. Most grounding sheets will help to dissipate all these fields while you are asleep.

There are various ways to ground yourself too. Take a swim inside the mineral filled ocean. Take a long bath in soft water with mineral salts inside it. Take a long walk in bare feet. You may even stretch out to take a peaceful nap on the grass.

If you do choose to buy earthing sheets and pads, always plan to take care of them. Wash them at least once a week with mild detergent and warm water. Never use fabric softener or bleach on them. They can damage them. It is best to try drying them on a low heat to help prolong the useful life of the copper and silver strands.
