Clint Ober from The Earthing Institute  joins me to unravel the mysteries and science of grounding, or 'earthing' as he passionately refers to it.    Together, we explore how our disconnection from the Earth's natural electrical charge could be a silent contributor to the rise in autoimmune diseases. We delve into how grounding is not merely a foundational principle in the cable industry for safety, but potentially a missing link in our personal well-being.   Clint’s modest approach to well-being, rooted in the simple act of connecting with nature, strikes a chord with the inherent desire for simplicity in our lives. His dedication to grounding therapy and its role in countering chronic inflammation and stress paints a picture of a natural remedy waiting just beneath our feet.   If you've ever been skeptical about grounding, this conversation addresses common misconceptions and invites you to reconsider the impact of this natural practice on your well-being.
