FMTV December Film Club: The Earthing Movie
JAMES COLQUHOUN
Putting your bare feet into wet grass, dirt, sand, or water is known as 'earthing' or 'grounding'.⠀⠀
When the skin comes into contact with the ground, the human body becomes a sponge that soaks up negatively-charged electrons from the earth. This practice is becoming a popular way to counteract and protect your health against the harsh nature of our current lifestyles. ⠀
THE EARTHING MOVIE reveals the scientific phenomenon of how we can heal our bodies by doing the simplest thing that a person can do… standing barefoot on the earth.
The film reveals that the answer to America’s biggest health crisis may literally be right under our feet. Earthing, also known as “grounding”, means connecting to the Earth. As the film reveals, the surface of planet Earth is negatively charged and when this negative charge is connected to human skin, it reduces inflammation and contributes to other positive health effects.
This is a must-watch documentary as it reveals the science of 'grounding' while calling us to connect to the Earth, heal our bodies, and become healthier beings.
