Down To Earth: A Note on Grounding
Down To Earth: A Note on Grounding
What is grounding? You might have heard this term in passing, often whispered in spiritual communities that embrace non-traditional healing methods. The truth is that although grounding might repair something for the soul, placing our bare feet in direct contact with the earth below us boasts physical health benefits, too.
What Happens When You Ground:
- Improved sleep
- Reduced inflammation
- Improved cellular and tissue repair
- Enhanced blood flow
- Increased heart rate variability
- Improved electrical activity in the brain
These are just a few of the physiological effects of this simple act of grounding on the human body. As humans, our connection to the earth is undeniable.
When you picture summers on Lake Toxaway, walking through the grass barefoot often comes to mind. Start and end your days with us this season and find the peace your soul craves. Wake up slowly and enjoy hot tea or coffee as the day begins. Skip the shoes as you take a lovely morning walk on dewy grass. Before you head off to enjoy your day of summer adventures, notice the feeling of your feet on the ground and the warmth on your shoulders. As the sun retreats, so do we. Before the day draws to a close, unwind, relax in your luxurious room, and end your day with our Ancient Minerals magnesium lotion with melatonin to repair cells, soothe skin, and encourage a restful night’s sleep.
