I am not the person that originally talked about the inflammation but I

bought one and have been sleeping for a week on the barefoot pad.

http://www.sleepingearthed.com/

I am having some chest discomfort and I can't tell if it is from the

barefoot pad yet. I have it plugged into the wall ground with their

outlet connector. I am going to try to use their outside ground stake

too and see if I can actually get a low reading on the body voltage. I

was unable to get a low reading when I made my own copper grounding

rod.

I too think that there is so much man made shit running through the

earth that how can we filter out the bad stuff and still get the

so-called grounding and free electron benefits?

I am still exploring and don't have a definitive answer yet on the

barefoot pad.

I will say that when I was sleeping on the velostat and silver mesh

material clipped to a grounding wire in my wall socket, that really

gave me chest pain in the morning. I don't recommend that! (additional

variables are that my bedroom walls are painted with copper paint and

grounded to the outlets. I wonder if the shit flying through the air is

traveling from the walls through the ground in the wall sockets and

ultimately through me. I wonder if there is a way to filter that out.

Anybody have an idea how to do that?

I too get chest discomfort when near EMF,

especially power lines.

The cause may be acid reflux/heartburn. Something is

messed up with the autonomic nervous system reacting

to the EMF.

Been taking Prilosec for several months and now

the pains are not so acute anymore. Months ago,

just about anything caused clnching chest pains.

Hi, and Quaixemen,

I will do my best to answer your questions. I am not the one

who first posted the information about sleeping earthed. I don't

know who posted it...all I remember seeing was an address for

a website, which I responded to. I bought the expensive mattress

pad, grounding wire and grounding device to plug into the wall

socket.

I wrote about the amazing experience of placing my feet on the pad

and having my right hip bone move into place. It has stayed in

place, and I believe that most of the inflammation is gone from my hip

that formed from being out of place for so long...maybe years.

The next thing that I noticed was that the edema that I had been

troubled with for many, many years was completely gone in less than

a week of sleeping earthed, and still is. Since I am an extremely

sensitive person I noticed a lot of tingling in my feet and legs

initially. I believe that I was actually feeling the free electrons

moving into my body,looking for free radical molecules to attach to.

Free radicals are caused from molecules losing an electron from oxygen

or toxins or whatever. Sometimes this tingling, almost pins and

needles feeling,got quite uncomfortable for me, but my husband didn't

experience this. After awhile the tingling would be reduced and I

would feel toasty warm. Both my husband and I noticed that our feet

would get warm quite quickly and stayed warm all night, but not

uncomfortably so.

I have never had any problem going to sleep quickly, and have been

able to sleep any time, anywhere. My husband, on the other hand has

always had a more difficult time getting to sleep. One of the things

mentioned on the www.sleepingearthed.com site is that people,when

sleeping grounded, usually get to sleep much faster and sleep through

the night. Getting to sleep quickly happened for my husband, but the

opposite thing happened for me. Because of the tingling in my legs

and feet it was much harder for me to get to sleep. Also, whereas I

used to need 9 hours of sleep a night and often took an afternoon nap,

as well, now I was waking totally refreshed after only 6 hours of

sleep and no longer napping in the afternoon. I other words, my

energy has soared.

After three weeks, we lent our carbon mattress pad and the wall

grounding plug to some relatives who were interested in buying one

for themselves. So, I got the bright idea to use the grounding wire

and grounding stake, that also came with the mattress pad,and attach

it to our regular mattress pad and sheet and put the stake into the

ground outside.

We bought some connectors and alligator clips for this purpose, and

I think it works even better than the original expensive mattress pad.

Now, our whole bed is grounded. At first I had even more trouble

getting to sleep because I was absorbing the free electrons through

my whole body, not just my lower legs and feet.

You can read my earlier post about how we attached the grounding wire

to the bed and to the ground. If anyone is interested I can give

the exact parts that we bought at Radio Shack. We spent about $12.

After we did this successfully, I heard from someone else that bought

the following grounding products from another site, and has had good

results. I will post the information without disclosing his name

because I don't have permission to disclose it, not that he would

object, I just haven't asked him.

As I said before, I think that the grounding sheet is entirely

unnecessary. This is the website that I bought the Ground Cable,

gator-clamp from for $6.00 plus $2.00 shipping. It is a good price,

but now that I know how it is made I think we can do it even cheaper.

This is what we grounded our guest bed with. I think is works very

well.

I really suggest that you read all you can on the sleepingearthed

site. There is a lot of good information there even if you don't want

to buy their expensive products. One thing they say is that the free

electrons are pretty much on the Earth's surface and just a short

distance into the Earth, so it is entirely unnecessary to put an

8 ft. grounding stake attached to a grounding wire into the Earth.

Also,it should just be touching the earth, not enclosed in rocks. The

grounding stake cannot suck up free electrons from rocks, but from the

Earth itself. Just make sure that your grounding stake is in a sunny

location. They recommend a garden,flower or otherwise. We put ours

into a patch of rich grass that gets sun for at least half the

daylight hours.

I have no answer for 's copper walls. I have no idea how

that may or may not affect any of this. The information that I have

read from the sleepingearthed site is that one should not double

ground your mattress. In other words, do not use both the grounding

stake outside and the grounding device in the wall socket on the same

bed.

You realize this is still a very new Science...about two years old.

So, it is still pretty much experimental, experiential and subjective.

A large number of doctors and Scientists in many different fields are

now starting to believe that all of our dis-eases are caused from

inflammation. The body uses inflammation to protect itself initially,

but then the inflammation creates more problems for the body if it

sticks around and doesn't clear up in a timely manner. One of the

greatest benefits of sleeping earthed, or grounded, is that it can

help the body rid itself of inflammation.

I hopes this helps.

Hi Again,

One question that I failed to answer...Yes, the ground wires that I have used

are

definitely shielded.

About your heart pain , I don't know if this is true for you or not, but I

feel

that sleeping earthed has helped my heart. I had suffered from two floppy

valves

as a result of taking Phen-fen for only a very short time. This was discovered

by

Echo gram. I have had this problem for several years.

I took one round of a homeopathic remedy to remove the Phen-fen from my system.

That made it a lot better, but I still had an audible click in my heart...

not audible to anyone but me. Without any other treatment that is completely

gone. I tell people that my heart runs like a Rolls Royce now, smooth and

quiet.

I don't know for sure that the grounding had anything to do with it, but I did

have

a bit of aching of the heart when I first started sleeping earthed. I don't

have

any anymore. But please don't take my word for it. It may or may not mean

you are getting rid of inflammation in your heart and it is healing.

According to Jeanne Gallick, the creator of the EarthCalm products,

you don't need to put a grounding rod deep into the ground; all you

need is a wire connected to a living plant in a ceramic pot on a

wooden table.

See the EarthCalm Innovations section half way down the page

http://www.earthcalm.com/basics.htm

I haven't tried this because I don't need to, but it could work. If

you live in an apartment, this may be your only option if you want to

ground your bed.

The EarthCalm wrap also looks interesting. Doesn't cost much, either,

so it may be worth trying.

Yes, it is not solid grounding into the earth, but if it works it

works. Science is ignorant of how a lot of things work. The only

" proof " of truth or hoax in this case is by trying it.

Here is your clarification:

I sent EarthCalm the following question:

" Does the EarthCalm Wrap technique require the use of an EarthCalm

Home Protector or other device in order to be effective? "

This is EarthCalm's answer:

" The wrap technique will use the ability of AC current to block out

any DC type voltage. It is independent of our products. "

" Note that AC current blocks out DC type voltages therefore this is

the reason we do not ground to the earth's magnetic field naturally

while in our homes, as the magnetic field is similar to DC voltage. If

you are highly affected by hi tension wires or cell phone

towers/microwaves then the wrap will be effective for you. "

Hi everyone,

The whole concept which Earthcalm uses seems totally backwards to

me. They admit that humans function more closely to the magnetic

energy of the Earth, so why in the world would one function better

being exposed to Alternating current instead of direct current?

The reason that so many of our household appliances cause us problems

is because the alternating current disrupts the natural, direct and

steady current that our bodies produce.

I can't prove it, but I am convinced that the reason that the

batteries and magnets that I use on appliances, phones, etc. no longer

switch me off or cause me problems is because they change the output

of the appliances, phones, etc. from AC to DC. They have to be

placed properly for them to work. Some people have put batteries in

front of or next to an appliance and expected them to work...that

does not work, and I never said that it did.

I am always very careful how I place the magnets and batteries and

what I place them on. For example, one should never put a magnet on

the TV or computer...batteries only. I use magnets, usually South

side touching on simple cell phones, and things like electric pencil

sharpeners. I would not use one on a cell phone that had all the

bells and whistles, camera, etc. I would think that it could possibly

damage that type of cell phone.

This is my two cents on this issue for whatever it is worth. To

me the information and effect for me has been priceless, but others

seem to think that it is worth no more than it costs which isn't much.

Hi Phyllicia,

Yes, I found the statement from EarthCalm a bit confusing. I sent them

another email with the following question:

" I'm a little confused. The first para says that the wrap technique

uses AC current to block out DC voltage, but the second para says that

the earth's magnetic field is similar to DC voltage (which we don't

want blocked-out). It just seems like you made two contradictory

statements. I think I know what you mean, but could you possibly state

it more clearly? "

My guess is that the technique of wrapping the bed with a plugged-in

extension cord may somehow neutralize the effects of the ambient AC in

the room, thus allowing a better connection to the earth's magnetic

field. I really don't understand how that could work; it's not

intuitive. But for the price of a long extension cord it may be worth

trying.

Here is a clearer answer from EarthCalm:

" Yes, it is confusing and I am sorry I was not clear. you are already

surrounded by AC current in the house. therefore the detrimental

aspect of electricity has already been introduced. By using the wrap

you are not increasing the detrimental aspect which is blocking out

the grounding to the earth's magnetic field as that has already been

done, however you are increasing the positive aspect which is to block

out MANMADE DC voltage. so there is an extra enhancement to block out

more manmade DC voltages. "

Still kind of unclear, I think, but better.

Hi again,

MAN MADE DC would include batteries, which I find to be helpful to

block out the AC voltage coming into the room. So I still think

that what they say is confusing. A grounding cloth could be helpful

if it somehow ground one to the Earth, but may not do what they

think it does concerning AC-DC. Perhaps the Earth wrap fabric serves

as some kind of cover, which protects from AC voltage touching a

person. This, I suppose could be helpful if one was covered by

it or wrapped in it while sleeping.

Yes, I totally agree. The second reply from EarthCalm is clearer than

the first, but I don't understand the reasoning. I don't know what is

wrong with manmade DC voltage.

There is nothing wrong with DC voltage IF it is really pure DC, such a batteries

put out.

However, all AC/DC transformers in the gadgets we plug in the wall socket put

out some

AC ripple which is then filtered to get very close to pure DC.

Sometimes the filter might be defective, then there is AC hum which is probably

not harmful.

Maybe EarthCalm means that any conductor, whether or not it is carrrying

voltage, can re-

radiate an induced frequency to which some are sensitive.
