"Decades of medical studies on grounding show that when we are connected to the earth’s energy, our bodies naturally go into a healing state. Everything from our brain waves to our muscle tension to our heartbeat responds in a healing way to grounding."
– Laura Koniver, M.D., from “The Earth Prescription”
