These Medical Studies Show How Grounding Benefits Build Over Time

Grounding, Medical Reports / By Laura Koniver, MD

I get asked all the time if there is any time too short to get grounded. To that I say no. Grounding is as instantaneous as flipping on a light switch. When you turn on a light, the entire room is illuminated — that’s what happens when one cell in your body becomes grounded: your entire body is grounded. Because your body is instantly grounded at first contact, there is really no time too little for grounding. Muscles instantaneously decrease in tension, the brain immediately shifts into more healing brainwave patterns, and our autonomic nervous system […]

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

Healthy Mindframe, Organic Lifestyle, Soul Healing / By Laura Koniver, MD

Well today I turned 50! Woot! So here is how I am approaching my very first day of being 50.

Save Time To Play, Even After Returning To School. It’s Essential For Health At Any Age

Medical Reports, Positive Parenting / By Laura Koniver, MD

Play is not only a relief and a respite from the seriousness that stress, illness and trauma bring to our lives, it is actually therapy. Play time is therapeutic time, point blank.

But it isn’t only therapeutic for children, it’s therapeutic for adults too. In fact, I would argue that engaging in some form of play daily is one of the best things you can do to safeguard your physical health. From physical

Almost just as bad? It also accelerated biological aging. Mean if you run chronically dehydrated, your body is aging faster than your actual chronological age. And the worst part is that this is with your serum sodium still being in within normal limits —
