BuffaloWeather Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 1 hour ago, wolfie09 said: This is literally one of the biggest health discoveries of all time that no one knows about or laughs at lol Jason Parkinson, of Sequim, Washington, is a quadriplegic with extraordinary courage and optimism. He suffered a severed cervical spine in a 1990 car crash. In September of 2017, the then 47-year-old began sleeping grounded, and grounding himself as well during the day in his wheelchair. In January 2018, he reported a nearly 90 percent decrease in systemic pain and severely disruptive leg spasms at night, for which he has used very strong medication and even straps. Always prone to coldness, he says he now enjoys systemic warmth. His skin has become pink, indicative of improved circulation. A lab test in December showed that his “severely low” testosterone had soared 78 percent since he started grounding. He had been taking testosterone injections for two years, and stopped them “instinctively” when he started grounding. “I thought grounding might help with my testosterone issue,” he said. “Sure enough. It did.” The visible chronic inflammation on his body, legs, and arms are gone. His lung capacity, previously limited to 20 percent, has expanded to 60 percent. Jason says his doctors are amazed. “I’m grounding most of the day. Nearly 24 hours. The more you ground the better. Good at 8 hours, better at 12, and I’m pretty close to 24 hour every day. It’s helping me phenomenally. My energy is off the charts,” he says. “My strength and clarity are way up. My hair is thicker. My wife and caregiver say I am more confident and can cuss even more.” As soon as I hit 40 I'm taking test supplements. Maybe even the unnatural kind. Arnold looks pretty good for 72. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rochesterdave Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 Keep us informed on this grounding stuff. I’m very skeptical but willing to admit that I know very little. Hope it works. I’m riddled with inflammation. Joint problems, low back pain, chronic pancreatitis, anxiety, on and on it goes. So if anything works, I’m willing to try. I’m currently on NAC and a few other antioxidants. Ive been walking around in bare feet because of this. Lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol I have to wonder if the seasonal depression many people experience is exacerbated by the fact that we hunker down and basically don't touch the ground or earth for 4-6 months each winter. Certainly intriguing. Also, think about walking around on a carpet in socks. You build up an incredible amount of static electricity that is actually a very high voltage. That can't be good for our circuits. I was wildly skeptical of this idea but am quickly coming around to the idea that it really might be helpful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Down side is that once you start you will be on some stage of replacement therapy your entire life. I wonder if it will someday be decriminalized and de-stigmatized like marijuana and we start to see other long term benefits. As far as the grounding topic if there is some truth to it scientifically it would have to have something to do with oxidizing ions and being able to neutralize through electron flow. So i say plausible. I'm outside in bare feet 10 months a year...now if it would just get rid of some of this nagging tendinitis. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfie09 Posted June 10, 2020 Author Share Posted June 10, 2020 Most grounding these days are done indoors, via the grounding port of the 3 prong outlet..It's best to sleep grounded as that's when you're body really repairs itself... I'll do my own study over the next month lol This is the one I purchased . should be here on Friday.. https://www.earthing.com/products/universal-mat-kit Here is the documentary "the grounded"..It's a good watch..

BuffaloWeather Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 I don't know if I would be able to do my hikes without hiking shoes. Walking in winter without protection is not good for you either. I never wear shoes when it's summer though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TugHillMatt Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 I find this Grounding discussion very intriguing. I am all about reactivating the body. Acupuncture helps with the nervous system, Chiropractic Care helps with the Skeletal system and so many other organ systems, etc... I have yet to do acupuncture or grounding, but my wife and I started Chiropractic care years ago and will continue doing it the rest of our lives. If none of you have tried one, I also strongly advocate using an inversion table. (I just got off mine.) Helps battle against the forces of gravity always pushing our bodies down, down, down, and the negative effects that can play. It is great for stretching out your body. I know both of these methods have helped reduce my anxiety and to think more clearly and feel better as the pathways inside my body are opened back up. The less drugs and chemicals I "have" to put in my body, the better. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rochesterdave Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 I’m into holistic treatments. And cannabis. Lol. I’ve got a massage scheduled for this afternoon- get one every few weeks. I was taking lots of supplements and antioxidants until recently when I decided to stop. Ever since curtailing, I’ve actually felt better. Who knows. Im up for anything. Even though I’m scientifically biased, working in medicine has opened my eyes to the truth that we know very little about the human body. Many of our ‘cures’ were discovered accidentally or through trial and error. Rare is the treatment that was designed via understanding of physiology and chemistry. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I told her it must be a big relief and freeing to be in this position. It also makes me wonder if she had Covid while we were still in school. If so, many of us could have been exposed already. It's made me consider going and getting myself checked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfie09 Posted June 12, 2020 Author Share Posted June 12, 2020 So here's my experience so far with earthing/grounding, only about an hour a day as I wait for my kit.. #1 is dreaming, multiple-several vivid dreams per night, the type that I will remember weeks from now lol Indicative of deeper sleep..I do sleep longer as well but still more fragmented than I would like.. #2 Increased energy in the mornings.. Even with the broken sleep I tend to feel more awake, alert, "alive" . #3 Reduction of Anxiety, "feeling of calmness" ..I use an oximeter to tell my resting heart rate, I'm usually at 10 bpm less when grounded compared to sitting inside. #4 pain relief and better breathing..I tend to deal with GI issues due to my anxiety, sitting with my feet covered in the earth for about 30min-1hr seems to take most of my discomfort away, including shortness of breath due to anxiety/GI discomfort.. After about 1 hour I tend to feel a warm tingling feeling in my feet that slowly rides up my legs and other parts of my body, I usually would freak out with those type of sensations lol I looked it up and it seems to be totally normal.. This is considered the"detox" phase.. When people are grounded through the feet (either by standing barefoot on the Earth or via grounded EKG patches in experiments), they sometimes feel a tingling sensation moving up the legs. We associate this with the apparent movement of electrons up into the body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Show me where cases are rising in NY. We have the lowest infection rate of any state in the entire country at 0.77 and cases are at their lowest number they’ve been at since the pandemic started and that’s even with testing 3 times as much daily now as when the Pandemic began. 50,000 test a day now in NY and only less than 2% in the entire state coming back positive daily. Some areas like the North Country only have 0.2 - 0.5 % of test coming back positive, and this is even with all the reopening taking place (their in phase 3 already). Hospitalizations and deaths are also the lowest they’ve been at since it all began in early/mid March. Sure other states are having surges but that’s because it took a long time to get to them, they’re just having later peaks then us, it just happens to coincide with them reopening since most of the country is opening up at the same time. Right now for a change New York is one of the safest states you can be in for Covid IMO, now that we’re well past our peak. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Left it out during the wintertime and the water that accumulated on the “stone” edges (really a thin set mixture textured to look like stone) landed up freezing and expanding in the grooves of the “stone” and cracked the surround. Was great when we had it , I just foolishly left it outside during the winter which was my mistake. Much more convenient than a “real” fire however it is nice to have the smell of a real fire especially with a good dry hardwood. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
