    Default Grounding/Earthing

    Looking into alternatives to the medical pharma culture.

    This sounds like a "moon beam crystal fest" but there also seems to be some legitimate research too.

    Anyone have any experience?

    What are you trying to cure/alleviate?

    Give it a shot with an open mind see if there are positive changes.

    Still doing some research.

    Heard a podcast with Matthew Walker about sleep optimization. That got me started. Seems people claim all kinds of healing benefits.

    For me, it's about sleep and energy levels. Any other benefits are a plus. Some say it helps with wrestles leg, neuropathies and swelling.

    Still looking for scholarly research.

    Try acupuncture, and find a good, qualified massage therapist, then see how you feel. IF you're interested in non-pharma options.

    We are by nature, electro chemical beings, and as such can derive benefits from many different forms of therapy.

    Everyone is different, so some people may get benefit from essential oils, and another may not. One may get benefits from magnets and another may not.

    Just like pharmaceuticals do not work for everyone.

    You can give it a try with an open mind, and see if you get any benefit, if the juice is worth the squeeze.

    Many people with bash alternative forms of therapy, I use them because certain ones do work, for example, since I have using an essential oil blend, my annual date with extreme sinus infection requiring antibiotics has not happened for 5 or 6 years now.

    I don't know about rocks/crystals, my 22 year old daughter sure thinks the Himalayan salt lamp helps with sleep and anxiety.

    I am trying to come at this with an open mind. Just getting past the chaff first.

    I'd be interested in what essential oils you are using. I have a deviated septum and get about four sinus infections a year. Not good in the age of Covid.

    I've used Himalayan Sea Salt for pickling but a newb beyond that.
