A Brief (and Certainly Incomplete) History of EarthingLife:
Information about the healing power of the Earth, as applied throughout history by different cultures, is challenging to find. Our knowledge of what they knew can best be described as scant.
Physical contact with the ground was an ordinary way of life in past times. People walked barefoot or used animal hides (leather) for footwear or bedding. These practices allowed transference of the Earth’s energy into the body.
What is clear is that a law of Nature is at play here: a built-in healing asset of Nature: the electric charge of the Earth. Something timeless. It is logical to think that countless healers and sages were aware of specific benefits and therapeutic effects.
