Frequently Asked Questions

What does Earthing or Grounding mean?

"Earthing" or "grounding" are terms that refer to the practice of being in direct contact with the Earth's surface, whether by walking barefoot on natural terrains like grass, sand, or soil, or by using conductive devices that connect the person to the Earth. The word "Earthing" comes from English and translates to "grounding" or "connection to the Earth".

The idea behind Earthing is to allow the human body to connect with the Earth's electrons, which studies suggest may have various health benefits, including the possible reduction of inflammation, improvement of blood circulation, regulation of the autonomic nervous system, and reduction of oxidative stress.

How is Earthing practiced?

Earthing is practiced by directly contacting the skin with the Earth's surface. Here are some common ways to do it:

      1. Walking barefoot: Walking barefoot on natural terrains like grass, sand, soil, or gravel is a simple and effective way to practice Earthing. This allows your feet and skin to make direct contact with the Earth.
      2. Lying down or sitting: You can sit or lie down on the ground or on a natural surface, making sure that a significant part of your skin is in direct contact with the Earth.
      3. Using conductive devices: There are also products specifically designed for Earthing, such as mats, sheets, or conductive pads that connect to a ground outlet or a stake buried outside. These devices allow you to connect to the Earth while indoors. Our devices can help you practice Earthing anywhere, both indoors and outdoors.
      4. Submerging in water: Swimming in the sea, a lake, or a river can also allow you to practice Earthing, as the conductive water connects you to the Earth.


It's important to practice Earthing in safe and clean areas to avoid injury or illness. It is also recommended to do it for a reasonable period and not overexpose yourself to extreme temperatures or adverse weather conditions. If you have any medical conditions or health concerns, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare professional before incorporating Earthing into your routine.

How long should Earthing be practiced?

There is no universally recommended specific time for practicing Earthing, as it can vary based on individual preferences and circumstances. Some people may experience benefits even after just a few minutes of contact with the Earth, while others may choose to extend the practice for longer periods.

A good approach is to start with short sessions and gradually increase the time as you feel comfortable. Some people prefer to practice for about 20 to 30 minutes a day, whether by walking barefoot outdoors, sitting on the Earth, or using our products.

Studies have shown that the longer the duration, the greater the benefits, especially in terms of rest.

Remember, it's always important to listen to your body and adjust the duration according to your comfort and needs. If you have any medical conditions, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare professional for specific guidance on the appropriate duration and frequency for your situation.

What are the benefits of walking barefoot on soil, water, or grass?

Walking barefoot on soil, water, or grass can offer various health and wellness benefits, though it's important to note that these effects can vary from person to person. Some potential benefits include:

  1. Connection with the Earth: Walking barefoot or using Earthing products allows you to connect directly with the Earth's energy, which is believed to have positive health effects by balancing electrons in the body.
  2. Earthing or Grounding: Walking barefoot or using Earthing products, especially on soil or grass, enables you to practice Earthing or grounding, which may help reduce inflammation, improve blood circulation, and decrease oxidative stress.
  3. Sensory Stimulation: Feeling different textures and temperatures under your feet can stimulate nerves and muscles, potentially benefiting the nervous system and coordination.
  4. Muscle Strengthening: Walking or using Earthing products barefoot engages more muscles in the feet and legs compared to wearing shoes. This could help strengthen muscles, improve posture, and enhance balance.
  5. Stress Reduction: Connecting with nature, using Earthing products, and the sensation of being in direct contact with the ground can have a relaxing effect and reduce stress.
  6. Circulation Stimulation: Walking barefoot or using Earthing products can help stimulate blood circulation in the feet and legs, which may be beneficial for cardiovascular health.
  7. Improved Mental Health: Spending time outdoors and in contact with nature, or using Earthing products, can positively impact mood and overall mental health.

Remember that while these benefits are frequently mentioned, the scientific evidence for some of these effects is still developing. It's always advisable to listen to your body, start gradually, and consult a healthcare professional if you have any medical concerns before changing your routine.

How do we connect with the Earth?

Connecting with the Earth, also known as "Earthing" or "grounding," involves establishing direct contact between your body and the Earth's surface. Here are some ways you can do it:

  1. Walking barefoot: You can walk barefoot on natural terrains like grass, sand, soil, or gravel. The direct contact between your feet and the Earth allows you to absorb electrons from the Earth.
  2. Sitting or lying down: Sit or lie down on the ground or a natural surface, ensuring that a significant portion of your skin is in contact with the Earth.
  3. Submerging in water: Swimming in the sea, a lake, or a river allows your skin to come into contact with the conductive water, which can also connect your body to the Earth.
  4. Earthing products: There are conductive devices like mats, sheets, or pads specifically designed for Earthing. These products allow you to connect to the Earth while indoors. You can find them by Clicking here.
  5. Gardening: Working in the garden with your hands in the soil is another way to connect with the Earth.

Remember that regardless of how you choose to connect with the Earth, it's important to do so safely and in clean areas. Start gradually and increase your exposure time as you feel comfortable. Always consider weather and safety conditions. As an additional measure, consult with a healthcare professional if you have any medical concerns before adopting this practice.

What happens if there is no grounding connection?

Not practicing Earthing or grounding doesn't have immediate serious consequences for most people. However, it has been suggested that this practice may offer potential health benefits by influencing inflammation, oxidative stress, and the balance of the autonomic nervous system.

Some people who practice Earthing report feeling more relaxed, experiencing better sleep quality, and noticing a reduction in stress levels. If you don't practice Earthing, you simply won't be gaining the potential benefits that some people associate with this practice.

What happens if I walk barefoot at home?
  • Walking barefoot at home on safe and clean surfaces has less of an Earthing effect than using products because floors are often insulated. However, whether on a conductive floor or with our products, here are the benefits:
  1. Muscle strengthening: Walking barefoot can engage more muscles in the feet and legs compared to wearing shoes. This could help strengthen muscles, improve posture, and enhance balance.
  2. Sensory stimulation: Feeling different textures and temperatures under your feet can stimulate nerves and muscles, which may have positive effects on coordination and sensory perception. Connection with the Earth: Even at home, walking barefoot on natural surfaces like wood, ceramic, or even conductive rugs could allow you to gain some of the benefits of Earthing by connecting with the Earth's energy.
  3. Comfort and relaxation: Many people find walking barefoot at home comfortable and relaxing. The feeling of freedom and direct contact with the floor can be comforting for some.
  4. Stress reduction: The act of walking barefoot can have a relaxing effect and reduce stress, especially if you feel connected to your surroundings.

If you choose to walk barefoot at home, be sure to do so on safe and clean surfaces to avoid injuries or illnesses. As always, it's advisable to listen to your body and consult with a healthcare professional if you have medical concerns before adopting new practices into your daily routine.

Is Earthing free?

Yes, in its most basic form, Earthing is free. Walking barefoot on natural terrains like grass, sand, or soil, or even sitting or lying down on the ground, doesn't cost anything. The main idea of Earthing is to establish direct contact between the human body and the Earth's surface to allow the transfer of electrons from the Earth to the body.

However, with the hustle and bustle of modern life, we often find ourselves disconnected from nature. We spend most of our time indoors, surrounded by technology and synthetic materials. A practice that allows us to reconnect with the Earth and its natural energies is through our products specifically designed for Earthing, such as conductive mats or sheets. These products are designed to allow you to connect with the Earth while indoors, in offices, sleeping, etc. While these devices can offer benefits, they are not essential for practicing Earthing effectively and in its basic form.

In summary, if you choose to walk barefoot on natural terrains or simply be in direct contact with the Earth, Earthing is a practice that comes at no cost. And if our products can help you gain the benefits while you rest, sleep, are at the office, or at home, we will be happy to assist you.
