How To Repair The Sun Damage To Your Skin From Labor Day Weekend

Grounding, Medical Reports / By Laura Koniver, MD

Well over the holiday weekend I got a lot of much needed sunshine, and I hope you did too. If you are a long time reader of my blog, you’ll know that I am a big fan of the many health benefits of sunshine so I’m glad I got to enjoy it a little, but while sun exposure actually prolongs lifespan and is important to our physical and mental health, there is no denying that sun exposure is harsh on skin. Which means it’s time to repair my skin from this past summer’s sun damage as well as protect […]

Grounding, Medical Reports / By Laura Koniver, MD

I’ve dedicated a significant portion of my professional career to sharing the latest medical research with you on grounding, and today I want to highlight a study I have not yet blogged about. Today’s the day to share this good news. I’m excited about this research, because high blood pressure is affects almost half of the adults in the United States (47%) which is roughly 116 million people in the United States alone. If you get my weekly newsletter (and if you don’t, you can sign up for it here!) then you already know that grounding is extremely

Using The Earth Outside To Clear Your Head And Help You Think

Grounding, Healthy Mindframe, Medical Reports, Positive Parenting / By Laura Koniver, MD

Do you like spending time in nature? Do you feel like you think more clearly after you have spent a little time outside? It’s not just a coincidence, your brain is actually being put into a healing state and helping you think more clearly, and we have several great medical studies to explain why. We already know that grounding to the earth outside immediately impacts our brains. This fantastic medical study, published in 2018, documents the brain wave shifts that happen near instantaneously, within milliseconds, recorded via an EEG (electroencephalogram) when the human body is grounded. Alpha wave patterns

How To Avoid A Tick Bite And What To Do The Minute You Get One

Grounding, Organic Lifestyle / By Laura Koniver, MD

Well we are well into summer, which hopefully means all of us are spending more time outside than ever! Unfortunately, ticks carrying the Lyme disease bacteria (Borrelia Burgdorferi) have been found in all 50 states, so don’t be fooled into thinking it’s only something that folks in the northeast have to be concerned with. But as much as I detest ticks, I really don’t want you to limit or stop your healing practice of connecting to Mother Earth outside daily because of a fear of ticks. To me, this healing practice of grounding is as crucial as eating

The Immense Anti-Aging Benefits Of Simply Touching The Earth

Grounding, Medical Reports, Organic Lifestyle / By Laura Koniver, MD

I recently attended a cutting edge medical conference on geriatric medicine and aging, full of updates on the latest medical research on what contributes to aging and what reduces our decline in function as we age. And again and again, every single factor that contributes to aging that was discussed at the meeting had me sitting back in my chair thinking… “grounding would help with that.” One presenter talked about how the main component of aging is increased inflammatory cytokines and yep… we have studies that show grounding significantly reduces the levels of inflammatory cytokine levels in the

Dehydration Sneaks Up On You, Do You Have Any Of These Symptoms Right Now?

Grounding, Intuitive Medicine, Organic Lifestyle / By Laura Koniver, MD

Is it warming up where you live? It’s starting to get warm where I live, and I’ve noticed feeling drier and more dehydrated the past few days. That reminded me to remind you: drink your water. All year long, but especially as it heats up outside. Known as the Elixir of Life for good reason, water is absolutely critical to our well being in every way. In fact, a recent study published in eBioMedicine found that dehydration, measured by how concentrated the salt is in your bloodstream, is actually a risk factor for premature death. Almost just as
