The old people came literally to love the soil, and they sat or reclined on the ground with a feeling of being close to a mothering power. It was good for the skin to touch the Earth, and the old people liked to remove their moccasins and walk with bare feet on the sacred Earth. Their tipis were built upon the earth and their altars were made of earth. The birds that flew in the air came to rest upon the earth, and it was the final abiding place of all things that lived and grew.~Teton Sioux, Born 1868 An ancient wisdom now resurrected with modern science to back it up... we now call it Earthing or Grounding - to walk barefoot, sit on the Earth, and even bury the body or parts of the body into the Earth. This natural therapy has shown to lower cortisol levels, balance hormones, reduce inflammation, decrease stress, boost immunity, and more. At Awakening Soul we like to walk barefoot as often as we can - and we feel the benefits! We have seen people in extreme stress, anxiety, insomnia, or body pain practice Earthing and receive major benefits. Try it for yourself - it doesnt cost anything! Just be sure you are in a clean pure environment free of pesticides, herbicides, and other potent chemical toxins.
