At the HillBilly Resort, we believe in the healing power of nature and offer immersive grounding experiences that allow you to connect with the natural world in a profound and sensory way. Our goal is to guide you on a journey of deepening your connection with the earth and finding peace by grounding and resetting your nervous system through the practice of earthing and learning how to incorporate it into your daily routine.

 

Our workshops provide practical guidance for grounding yourself in nature, connecting with the earth, and reaping the benefits of this ancient practice. Join us to experience the joy and rejuvenation of earthing in the Fraserwood Forest environment at the HillBilly Resort.

 

Grounding workshops: Dive into the practice of earthing for a deeper connection with the earth to enhance your overall well-being. Discover the practice of earthing and its benefits. Our earthing workshops are designed to help you incorporate the practice of earthing into your daily life, offering tangible benefits for your overall well-being and connection with the earth.

• Practical instruction
• Deeper connection with the earth
• Enhanced well-being

Studies now show that just standing on the earth barefoot has amazing health benefits as we drain off free-radicals and the electric charge we carry with us. 

 

Think of it this way. The earth is a giant car battery with a liquid metal core. It carries a strongly negative charge. And anything above the ground (such as in the air or insulated from the ground) carries a positive charge. This is why lightning strikes occur, and why we need to “ground” or protect all of our electrical and electronic equipment, to keep them from sparking or short circuiting.

 

In essence, to ground something is to plug it back in to the earth, which is actually the third prong on our electrical outlets (called a ground).

Human beings, and all organisms for that matter, are electrical in nature as well. We get EKGs, MRIs, and all sorts of electrical tests to measure our health, hearts, and bodies. Our nervous system works on electrical impulses, and even the heart beats with an electrical charge (which is why you may get a pacemaker if it starts getting out of tune).

 

We are electrical in nature, and like electrical equipment and electronics needs to be properly grounded to function well (if you’ve ever listened to an ungrounded radio, you know what I mean, you’ll hear tons of static and background noise until it’s grounded), we need to be grounded for proper health and well-being and for proper functioning of our bodies.

What are the health benefits of grounding to the Earth?

An imbalance of electrons within our body can wear it down. It is believed that grounding can help restore a healthy balance within our bodies and in turn reduce/prevent many health problems.

 

Some of the health benefits that studies have looked into are included below.

Pain relief

Earthing could be a technique used to help provide relief from chronic pain. One study found that participants experienced reduced stress levels and pain after practising grounding. This is not surprising given that stress causes electrical signals to become erratic, and that our sense of pain is produced by these electrical signals.

 

Reduce inflammation.

An imbalance of electrical signals may also trigger inflammation around the body. This in turn can slow down wound healing and contribute to pain. Earthing is believed to help reduce inflammation, and in turn could help improve healing.

 

Improved cardiovascular Health

There is research to suggest that grounding could be very healthy for our cardiovascular system. It is already known that the risk of cardiovascular disease can be increased if blood is very viscous. Earthing may help to reduce blood viscosity – one study found that grounding helped reduce blood cell clumping in participants. All in all, it could be a simple way to help protect your heart as you get older.

 

Better sleep quality

In the same study that measured reduced pain relief in participants after grounding, improved sleep quality was found to also be a positive outcome. Stress and pain are known to be major causes of poor sleep quality. Earthing is believed to help reduce this stress and pain, which in turn could result in a better night’s sleep. If you suffer from insomnia, consider whether it could be worth trying grounding.

 

Reduced anxiety and depression

Earthing may also have a positive impact on our mental health. A study on earthing found that it could have a significant impact on our mood – participants who were unknowingly grounded for just an hour reported feeling more relaxed than participants who were not grounded for an hour.
