There is a good amount of scientific research being done on the effects of grounding yourself to the earth. 

Here are a few of the purported effects:

Increased wound healing.

An immediate drop in blood pressure. 

It's really quite fascinating stuff. 

Here's a video by Bart Kay who explains it in 5 minutes and more clearly than I ever could: 

 

Never heard the term. But at the same time never looked into the carnivore diet til recently. I can't see the benefits but I have not delved into any of the science either. 

I remember as a kid I was faster without shoes, so I know there is at least one benefit to grounding. LOL Maybe not the actual intent but that was the first thing I thought of when I started reading. 

I have been on a medicine for the last two to three years, and it is a taken as needed prescription for inflammation and some pain and discomfort in my upper back. The last two nightshift rotations I have not needed the pills at all. I have been on the carnivore diet app. 5 weeks and if you had told me changing my diet to "carnivore" would drop 30 pounds and stop the need for the pills I would pretty much have said you are 'bat shit crazy'. 

But here I am.

I’m not sure that your grounding is the same as what we are talking about.

I see it as the same. You all are just addressing one end of the spectrum. I am at the other. Let us consider it is the same only you are speaking of more physical effects while I am aware of how it effects you spiritually and perhaps psychologically.

That is interesting that blood pressure can drop. I'd like to eliminate a prescription. But I do feel it in my throat as opening up and relaxing but more like awake and ready without tension. The mind is clear and balanced. 

One reason I went straight to this perspective in my response is that the physical aspect is common knowledge supported by science and not a subjective opinion, at least I have thought so since maybe high school which is 50 years back.

I can grok that.

This reminds me of how I would get physically distressed when walking by the power substation. It drove me nuts. I had a friend whose mother always got headaches and they found cancer. there house was really close to the power lines.
