Grounding (also called earthing) is the simple act of connecting your body with the Earth’s natural energy.
Think about how relaxed you feel when you walk barefoot on soft grass or warm sand.
Boost your energy and mood throughout the day (Müller et al., 2019).
Fall asleep more easily and wake up feeling refreshed (Ghaly & Teplitz, 2004).
Feel calmer, with lower worry and everyday tension (Park et al., 2022)
Support your body’s natural healing for fewer aches and overall well-being (Sokal et al., 2025).
Grounding doesn't require extra effort. Do three things to connect yourself with Earth's energy.
The simplest way is to go barefoot on natural surfaces like grass, soil, or sand. Try walking in your yard or a park without shoes. This helps your body absorb the Earth’s energy.
You might notice you feel more relaxed after just a few minutes of walking barefoot.
Put grounding sheets on your bed and sleep as usual. They work while you rest.
Just place the sheet on your mattress, connect it properly, and sleep as usual.
Grounding mats are helpful if you spend a lot of time sitting or working indoors. Place the mat under your feet or rest your hands on it while you relax, work, or watch TV.
It’s an easy way to ground without changing your daily routine.
Grounding works by reconnecting your body with the Earth’s natural electrical charge. When you touch the ground directly or use grounding products, your body can absorb electrons that help balance your system.
This may support calmer nerves, better sleep, and a more relaxed feeling over time.
