GET GROUNDED AND SLEEP YOUR WAY TO BETTER HEALTH



Innovative products based on the concept of earthing could turn out to be the ideal solution for people who have trouble sleeping.



New research from the Mental Health Foundation has highlighted the massive impact that a lack of sleep has on people and the way they perform.

 The organisation’s Sleep Report said many people are looking for an answer, but are reluctant to rely on the help of long-term medication. 

People are aware of celebrities who are alleged to have taken various medications to help with sleep and have suffered as a result.



Earth Connexions, based in Alvechurch, Worcestershire, is encouraging people to look at products which use earthing as a way of normalising their body clocks and getting a good night’s sleep.



By using the company’s earthing sheets – half-sheets made of cotton, with silver filaments criss-crossing the material – users benefit from having body contact with the material which is connected to the earth outside or the earthing circuit of your home.



Once the bedcovers have been pulled over the sleeper, the earthing sheet is not
visible. These sheets can also be laundered using a normal washing machine.



Mrs Sammons said that 11 years of research, by medical experts, have gone into the company’s products.



In particular, research into people’s Cortisol (stress hormone) levels, has shown that sleeping earthed improves people’s quality and depth of sleep, and they wake up feeling more refreshed. 



According to an ESD Journal, 85 per cent of people questioned about  “grounding” the human body to neutralise bio-electrical stress from static electricity and electromagnetic fields, said it had helped them to get off to sleep more quickly.



Other published studies show that earthing improves sleep and reduces pain and 
stiffness. It is also said to cut levels of inflammation, increase energy, lower stress, speed-up the healing of injuries, improve circulation and offer relief from some types of headache
and migraine.



Mrs Sammons said:

“I have been in healthcare for 27 years. All the research clearly indicates that by making contact with the body to the earth, electrical imbalances are corrected.”



“This results in many benefits to the body, as its systems return to normal, such as reduced pain, improved sleep, and many more.” Donna added.



Earthing sheets’ user Anna Horton was delighted with her purchase: 



“So far, I can definitely say that I am sleeping much better. I’m not a great sleeper – and I used to wake-up virtually once or twice a night – EVERY night too. But all that’s now changed.”
