My Latest Grounding Publication: Grounding To Facilitate Trauma Recovery

Grounding, Medical Reports / By

  Today I wanted to share with you my latest published research article, on using grounding to help recover from trauma. If you’ve followed my blog for any length of time, you know that I talk about trauma recover a lot, because I personally (along with both of my children) had a profound trauma about 15 years ago from which we are all still healing. Because of my direct experience with using grounding to help facilitate our own recovery, I was able to notice first hand how grounding helped reduce anxiety, helped reduce muscle tension from persistent muscle bracing from […]

14 Unusual Tips That Make Losing Weight Dramatically Easier & More Permanent

Female Health, Healthy Weight, Medical Reports, Organic Lifestyle / By

  Although the traditional approach to weight loss focuses on calories in vs. calories burned, we are starting to become more and more aware about how our internal and external environment actually dramatically impacts our weight.  There are many contributing factors, well beyond diet and exercise, that cause significant issues in our metabolism. In fact, the environment has such an impact on our weight that there is an entire category of environmental chemicals that are now considered obesogens — chemicals directly responsible for contributing to obesity.  Obesogens increase fat has, modify our basal metabolic rate, alter our gut microbiota, promote

How Grounding Reverses The Long Term Detrimental Effects Trauma Has On Your Health

Grounding, Healthy Mindframe / By

      It’s natural for our bodies to go through times of trauma and stress and then rebound to full health.  There are lots of things you can do to mitigate stress and trauma and prevent them from leaving lasting imprints on your body might otherwise deteriorate your health. Which is important, because if we don’t release the traumas and stressors that we experience, our cells, organs, tissues and physical body as a whole literally changes. This is the study of epigenetics — and I’ve seen it play out in clinical medicine over and over again:  trauma governs what

Can’t Stop Overthinking? 9 Easy Ways To Drop Into Your Body For Instant Relief

Healthy Mindframe / By

  I’m writing this article after having the total pleasure of my adult daughter visiting for a night, in the morning we went out for breakfast and a pedicure before she had to leave — what a rare treat and I soaked up every second of it. It wasn’t until we finished our meal and were heading over to give our feet some TLC (read here if you want a medical excuse to get a pedicure!) that I realized exactly why I soaked it up more than usual — I did not have my cell phone with me at all.

Using Grounding To Treat Anxiety … What The Medical Literature Says

Grounding, Healthy Mindframe / By

    I’ve been anxious my entire life.  I can’t remember a day when I did not wake up with a huge knot in my stomach that felt like death was gripping my solar plexus and sneering up at me. Unfortunately the medical literature is pretty clear — anxiety has major health effects, but it’s equally clear that those deleterious health effects are actually reversible.  Meaning, if you suffer from anxiety, it’s very worth addressing, not just for the relief on a daily basis but also for the longevity benefits. Today, as someone who very much knows the felt sense

The Benefits Of Grounding To Boost Brain Health And Improve Cognition

Grounding, Medical Reports / By

    There is a beautiful relationship between our brain and the electrical field of our planet.  This makes sense, as our sensitive yet complex neurological system has developed over millions of years — all while being bathed in the earth’s natural electrical field. Through recent research, we are just bringing to understand how the earth’s electrical field helps support all of our brain functions — from enhancing mood to supporting cognition to maintaining ideal autonomic brainstem functions (like healthy heart rate variability and breathing patterns) to deepening our restorative sleep at night. Today I’m sharing with you the latest

Your Waistline Is Telling You That You Are Under Chronic Stress… Here Is What To Do About It

Healthy Weight, Medical Reports / By

    An expanding waistline is actually a very common response to stress, and it signals that you are producing too much cortisol as a response to prolonged stress.  I think of fat accumulation in the central abdominal area not as a marker of being overweight as much as it’s a marker of stress and high cortisol levels.  So instead of monitoring your eating, maybe what you should be monitoring is your cortisol and stress levels.   Because stress weight gain is different from other forms of weight gain — it typically centers in the abdominal area and is the
