Get Grounded, Get Well: Connect to the Earth to Improve Your Health, Well-Being, and Energy
About this audiobook
Discover the healing power of Mother Earth through the act of grounding. Let nature and Dr. Sinatra be your guide to a happier, healthier life.
Nature has been the world’s most acclaimed healer since the beginning of time, with time-tested references to its ability to heal body, mind, and soul, dating to the earliest civilizations. For thousands of years, traditional indigenous medicine from Mother Earth has been used to promote health and wellbeing for millions of Native peoples.
The use of native plants and contact with the Earth for healing purposes was commonplace for centuries from ancient Asia to the early Americas. In Europe, ancient Roman troops were reported to have walked upon hallowed ground after battle to receive healing energy from the Earth. Recent scientific findings and clinical studies link grounding with relief for health issues like:
Heart disease,
Sleep disorders,
Inflammatory conditions,
Depression and anxiety, and
Attention disorders.
Get Grounded, Get Well offers listeners the secret to better health through grounding. Grounding, the simple act of connecting to the always-abundant, nourishing energy of the Earth’s surface, has been scientifically and medically proven through numerous studies to have significant positive effects on our physiology.
It helps to restore energy, heighten feel-good endorphins, improve circulation, calm heart rates, alleviate stress, and help ensure a better night’s sleep, returning the body to a naturally balanced state of homeostasis the way nature intended. It also reduces inflammation—the culprit behind rising health problems today, including heart disease, arthritis, diabetes, high blood pressure, chronic pain, and even cancer.
