Anybody with any experience on grounding mats or sheet?. Keep seeing them on socials (probably because I clicked an ad) and I am curious.Try to do grounding with bare feet outside, but as it gets colder I won't be doing it.

Thoughts?

I had a sheet for a while. Slept like a rock. Maybe it was just placebo, but seems to help my sleep. My wife took it off because it shrunk and now I am not sleeping as well.

Would be interested in a mat to just keep on my side of the bed.

Grounding..... is this stuff real? Any scientific studies?

Hate to say it, but it sounds like a bunch of woo-woo right up there with crystals, essential oils and drinking alkaline water to balance PH.

Edit - I will say I think exposure to dirt by walking or just being filthy is great for your microbiome, and it exposes the body to to various toxins/allergens/etc. to build up natural immunity.

I think grounding outside as the sun comes up certainly helps your circadian rhythm which helps your overall health and sleep.

I got one a few weeks ago bc why the hell not. Do about 15min on it while I do red light before sleep. Honestly not sure it's made a significant difference I think sleep hygiene and not doing meals too late/alcohol have a much more profound effect.

I think this would work outside in shoes or just staring out a window as the sun rises. Sunlight in the eye sets the crcadian rythym not feet on soil.

Go outside. It is exposure to sunlight that matters.

Your body generates a boatload of electrical current and voltage potential on its own. Constantly. It is also exposed to it from moving and from potentials in the environment constantly, inside or out. Discharging some of it for a moment in time does basically nothing. Your body requires tiny amounts of electrical potential to operate, after all.

If you're going to do something for your health that doesn't work, make sure it's cheap and side-effect free

So sure, get a grounding mat/sheet
