This type of conduction involves the movement of protons through a chain of water molecules connected by hydrogen bonds, enabling a proton to move without a full physical relocation across the entire distance. Instead, a proton at one end of the chain can be effectively relayed through the bond network, creating a swift and efficient form of charge transport.

This is an idea I’ve been discussing since 2020 and have written about in Earth & Water. As we move closer to Part II of Earth & Water in these blogs, which makes up the bulk of the book, I want to pose an important question: What is normal? Many people think they have a solid grasp of this concept, but I believe it's worth questioning. In many ways, our understanding of "normal" remains incomplete and unexplored.

You’ve heard a lot about grounding from me.. butttttt maybe you’re a little concerned. Is grounding really safe? Can connecting to the Earth’s electrical field somehow expose you to more risks than rewards? If you’re feeling perplexed, you’re not alone. Let’s dive deep and clear up some misconceptions and concerns surrounding grounding, focusing on why it’s a safe and beneficial practice that you can incorporate into your daily life.

In The Rainbow and the Worm, Mae-Won Ho introduces the concept of “Quantum Jazz,” a vivid metaphor that encapsulates the dynamic, coherent interaction of molecules, cells, and tissues in a living organism. This concept reflects an intricate and harmonious interplay that sustains life, similar to an improvised jazz performance where each musician is in perfect sync. This intricate coherence is fundamentally supported by liquid crystalline water, which is an integral component of the Matrix as conceptualized in Earth & Water. Grounding plays a crucial role in maintaining this coherence by supplying the body with electrons that support the structure and function of the Matrix.

The core mechanisms of grounding are perfectly encapsulated by something I call the Big 3, which I’ve written about in Earth & Water. 

These three mechanisms, in my opinion, lay the foundation for people to create GPT threads about the benefits of grounding 🌀⚡️

Grounding refers to the practice of making direct contact with the Earth's surface to allow the free flow of electrons between the ground and the human body. This simple yet impactful practice has gained attention for its benefits, including reduced inflammation, improved sleep, and enhanced mood. However, to experience these benefits, grounding must occur on suitable surfaces that allow electrical currents to flow. This post will explore where grounding can and cannot be effectively achieved.

As someone who is passionate about grounding and its benefits, I've spent a lot of time researching and testing different grounding products. While I focus on selling grounding footwear myself, I often get asked where I source the other grounding products I use daily—mats, sheets, patches, and more. The answer is simple: I get all of these products from Ultimate Longevity, the company founded by Clint Ober.

Ahhh, one of the most common questions in the world of grounding, and one that I frequently see in my DMs: "How long do I need to ground to see benefits?" I've decided to tackle this topic in a blog post to help clarify things a bit. I, Rob, am here to give you the straight talk. So, let's dive in.

The Short Answer: It Depends

For quite some time, footwear has been an essential part of human attire.. balancing both function and style while reflecting cultural and social identities. Yet, the modern habit of enclosing our feet in various materials and designs, like gay ass hokas or onclouds, should call for a careful evaluation of how this separation from direct contact with the Earth affects our health.

When I started little TGA and began teaching grounding 5 years ago, my goal was to make a difference in people's lives. I've seen widespread suffering and loss, as have many others, and it’s painful to see people lost to disease, particularly when we know that there are ways that could’ve alleviated some of that suffering. While we can't prevent the inevitable, grounding is a powerful tool that can enhance and extend health span.

The Earth's surface is a continuous source of free electrons maintained by the global electric circuit, including solar wind, ionospheric winds, fair weather currents, and thunderstorms. This system supports the Earth's negative electric potential and influences electrical system design..

Quantum mechanical uncertainty is a fundamental concept that reveals the limits of our ability to measure certain properties of particles, such as position and momentum, simultaneously. This limitation isn't due to the precision of our instruments but is an intrinsic feature of the quantum world. At the heart of this concept is Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle, which states that the more precisely we know a particle's position, the less precisely we can know its momentum, and vice versa. In simpler terms, if you try to pin down exactly where a particle is, you'll have a very fuzzy idea of how fast it's moving and in which direction. Conversely, if you know the particle's momentum very well, its position becomes uncertain.

The hyperbolic function of stimulated light emission from living organisms and cells takes the general form here Where x is light intensity, A, t0and d are constants, and t is time after light exposure. Thus essentially captures the characteristic that light intensity falls off as a power of time.. mayhaps suggesting the existence of memory in the system Very cool. I usually don’t talk about QED as it relates to biology because it risks sounding super gay like the quantum biologists.

In North America, Indigenous cultures like Lakota revere Mother Earth, believing in the interconnectedness of physical, mental, and spiritual realms. They see natural elements like water, soil, and wind as vital for maintaining this balance. In South America, the Andean cultures honor Pachamama, or Mother Earth, as the giver of life and a healer (offering ceremonies to show gratitude and seek her healing powers). Australian Aboriginal cultures, through "Dreamtime," recognize the Earth as imbued with spiritual essence, believing that every rock, tree, and river holds a spirit that can bring healing. Daoism in the Far East emphasizes living in harmony with the Earth, with balanced Qi between humans and the Earth leading to good health. Across these cultures there is a shared reverence for the Earth as a powerful healer and life-sustainer.

I remember as a young Lakota child, watching my family dance each summer under the scorching heat of the South Dakota plains during Sundance ceremony—a sacred and time-honored tradition of the Lakota people. I was captivated by the sight of their bodies adorned with beautiful regalia, but my eyes were always drawn to my mother among the dancers. She would dance for DAYS and not get tired. She was grounded in spirit and body.

Across the spectrum of human civilization, many cultures hold a deep and profound reverence for the Earth, viewing it not merely as an inanimate dwelling place, but as a living entity imbued with healing and restorative powers. These perspectives are beautifully encapsulated in a variety of traditions, customs, and narratives around the world.

Between Aug 2019 - July 2020, Lin et. al. launched a study to explore grounding's potential to treat various issues in patients with mild Alzheimer’s disease. Alzheimer's, a degenerative brain disorder, affects memory and thinking, leading to dementia in 60-80% of cases.
