I just wanted to share my experience with EARTHING. After being sick for so long, I tried it and I feel better that I have in years. It seems to simple to work, but I don't even feel like I have fibro anymore. Here is my story: I have been dealing with fibro for the past 3.5 years. It started after a very violent assault I suffered. I was left with a concussion and lots of bruising to my neck. It took weeks for me to heal. But once I was healed I started having problems. Insomnia, pain in my neck, arms, back, and shoulders. Extreme fatigue and my head was always so foggy. I was miserable. Most days, I was barely able to function. I tried everything to get better. Many drs. told me there was nothing wrong with me. It was such a frustrating experience. I tried to explain that I was fine, I was healthy before the attack. But no one listed to me. Finally, a chance meeting with a doctor changed everything. He ran tests and help me find out a few things. I changed my diet, which helped some, I got meds for pain and insomnia, I started taking suppliments. But I was always right on the verge of going off the deep end. I felt like this syndrome just might drive me crazy. Then my dr. gave me the Earthing book. He said just give it try. So I did, it couldn't hurt right? I started my earthing outdoors for an hour a day on my lunch break. I noticed right away that I felt better when I returned to the office. My neck and shoulders did not hurt as much and getting through the second half of my day seemed much easier. I thought maybe it was in my head, but I just kept doing it. By the end of the first week, I notice that overall I was feeling better. I was taking less pain meds. I was still not sleeping very well. And I was still having an insanely hard time getting out of the bed in the morning. It felt like every fiber of my being was commanding me to stay in the bed. Also, it took two hours before I could even think straight after waking. But because my days were improving, I continued to earth. I decided to buy an earthing 1/2 sheet. The first night I slept on it, I fell asleep instantly. But after 3 hours, I woke up sick. I was having a serious detox reaction. I felt like I had the flu and like I might throw up. I got off of the sheet. I spent the rest of the night tossing and turning and sweating. I waited 2 days and tried again. But I set my timer and only slept on it for two hours. No reaction, again I fell asleep within minutes on lying down, usually it would take hours. I spent a week increasing my time sleeping grounded. Now I sleep grounded all night. I feel amazing. I feel like my old self. I fall asleep within 5 minutes of lying down. I sleep all the way through the night, which hasn't happened in 3 years. I wake up feeling refreshed and alert. This morning I woke up and with in 15 seconds, I was already planning my day. That is just incredible to me. Another thing that I noticed is that I need less sleep. I went to bed at 10pm last night and woke up at 10 minutes to 5am. 25 minutes before my alarm went off. I was able to get right up. Not only was I able but I wanted to get up. This is the most amazing thing I have tried so far. I am completely beside myself. My partner has even said how great I look and how happy I seem. I have the energy to play with my kids again. Before I tried earthing, all I could do was rush through the nighttime routine so that I could hurry up and lay down because I was so tired all the time. I have been off all pain meds for 3 weeks now. I feel like I have my life back. All because I spend an hour a day with my feet on the grass and spend the night on a grounded sheet. I hope my story helps others. I really hope that people give it a try. Even if it is just one hour a day, outdoors. If this is the answer for even one person, I am glad that I could help.
