Barefoot Earthing [5 mins]

What is Grounding?
Grounding, or “earthing,” is the practice of connecting with the earth, even for just a moment. It’s as simple as standing barefoot on the grass, feeling the ground beneath you, and letting yourself reconnect with the natural energy around you.

Why Grounding?
When we’re feeling anxious, stressed, or out of balance, grounding helps us to feel supported and centered. Research shows that connecting with the earth may help to reduce inflammation, lower stress levels, and even improve mood. Grounding can:

• Lower cortisol levels, helping us feel less stressed
• Balance our energy, bringing a sense of calm and focus
• Boost our mood, helping us feel more present and positive

Today’s Practice
Take a few quiet minutes to go outside, find a comfortable spot, and stand or sit with bare feet on the ground. Close your eyes, take a few deep breaths, and notice how it feels to connect with the earth. Let your body and mind relax as you tune into the support beneath you.

Even a single moment of grounding can make a difference in your day. Enjoy this practice, and know you’re giving yourself a wonderful gift of calm and connection.
