What Is Grounding?

"Grounding provides immediate benefits to your body. You will notice instant muscle and joint relief when you touch your bare feet to the earth. Notice, over time, any changes you experience emotionally, mentally, spiritually, and physically.

Pro Tip: For maximum benefits, try grounding earlier in the morning when the grass is still dewy!" - Jillian Locke, therapist at Delilah Counseling
