The Many Grounding Benefits That Build Over Time: A Complete Review

    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 gets immediate […]

Chocolate To Boost Your Metabolism? Uh Yes Please (+ Additional Benefits)

    I love chocolate so much I even have a bowl of chocolates in my office I eat from almost every day.  Now I don’t recommend a bowl of easily accessible sugary treats to be within arms reach while you are trying to work, speaking from personal experience, ahem… but let’s gloss over that for now and instead focus on why eating chocolate in moderation may not be as bad for you as might assume!

Natural DC Earth Energy Shown To Improve Wound Healing In Skin

    The Power Of DC Energy For Skin Healing This is an incredible study, just published in March of 2023, that backs up what multiple medical studies on grounding have been demonstrating for years: time spent grounded to the earth boosts skin health and improves the skin’s ability to heal. When skin is injured, it naturally creates a small electric field of DC energy to help guide tissue repair.  This DC current allows cells to migrate along that mini electrical field, a healing property called electrotaxis.  Many of the cells of the skin required for healing are eelectrotactic, including

Most studies on heart disease focus on the male population, so this one really caught my eye — specifically focusing on the link between heart disease in women with a history of trauma. Looking at almost 400,000 women, researchers identified women diagnosed with PTSD and matched them to age and cardiovascular risk correlated female controls with no history of PTSD. They then looked at ischemic heart disease outcomes, including new onset coronary artery disease, angina or

      Last week I shared with you a few tips on how to release weight that accumulates during times of stress. Stress weight gain is different from standard weight gain because it is stress-hormone driven. So focusing on rebalancing your adrenals — not dieting — is what works best.
