Rowland Earthing

[mrsb]

has anyone experience of the Rowland Earthing Theory rowlandearthing.co.uk/pages... and invested in an earthing sheet? Have heard good things but a little pricey.

Thanks

Never heard of anyone who has had any experience of it..but when I first read about it my first reaction was one needed to walk around outside in barefeet. But I’m sure there must be more to it.

Don’t know anything about an earthing sheet..but if it’s very expensive I’d want know somebody I trust had found it useful..before I spent the money.

Sounds like very expensive snake oil to me

It might work if someone believes it's going too. But hard to see how and wouldn't lying on the lawn work the same. Why the bottom sheet? I admit I don't understand it.

I wonder how long it took someone to fabricate that nonsense and make money out of it………..

I had heard of earthing many years ago but that involved standing/walking round with bare feet outside on the grass. Can’t see how a sheet does the same thing so I’d save your money.

[AgedCrone in reply to KittyJ]

Oh…….so I got the right idea then?

Trouble is …..every time I walk around in bare feet….I drop something on my toes!

😂 or tread on something prickly 😂

[Bootoo in reply to AgedCrone]

And every time I walk barefoot I usually find the lego the grandchildren didn't pick up 😡😂

The ‘research papers’ are remarkably lacking in academic references. Sounds like a scam to me.

[mrsb]

thank you for your replies, supports my slightly sceptical thoughts

[Brushwork]

Mmm - sceptical. I’d take a picnic blanket and lie on the lawn daily for 30 minutes before investing any money. If earthing is a thing surely that would work equally well, or at least one would feel some benefit.

I do think we need to spend some time outside in the natural environment everyday, it certainly grounds me.

Getting down ain’t a problem but getting up might be. X

[thelmar in reply to medway-lady]

Does it come with a block and tackle!!

[Blackberrywine]

Yes I've heard of it. I don't have the sheet, but walk in my garden barefoot. Not sure if it does anything significant, but I like the freedom of it. Shoes are uncomfortable for me.

I' a well-read guy but I have never heard or read about it at all, except on the webpage selling bedsheets.

So I'd pass on this "miracle".

I do remember that, years ago, some people used to put an "earthing strip" under their cars to avoid car sickness. It never worked, of course, and was quietly forgotten. History does have a habit of repeating itself ....
