The Mindset Game® Podcast 090 The Benefits of Earthing: Interview with Clint Ober
Over the past six decades, another trend has emerged: a significant increase in autoimmune disorders and other inflammation-related health conditions. While the two trends may not initially seem to be related, several studies have indicated that by re-establishing our physical connection with the earth through a practice called "grounding" (or earthing), we may be able to reduce inflammation and access a wide variety of benefits.
After health challenges drove him to retire from his career in the cable TV industry at age 54, Clint Ober embarked on a journey to heal his body and find a higher purpose in life. Recalling his childhood in the 1950s – when spending time barefoot was far more common – Clint began to explore how the disruption in our natural state of being grounded to the earth could impact our health. In Episode 90 of The MINDSet Game® podcast, Clint discusses:
- The science behind grounding and how physical contact with the earth affects various processes in the body, thereby reducing inflammation, alleviating pain and stress, and enhancing overall well-being
- How various studies conducted on subjects ranging from premature babies to elite athletes have demonstrated the power of grounding
- Practices and products that can help you incorporate grounding into your daily life
