NorthStar Grounding – Grounding Sheets
They created these grounding sheets and grounding pillow cases. You get the benefits while you sleep. Detective Ev said, “I don’t know about you, but admittedly that’s a thing in functional medicine that’s harder for me to do. And full transparency I was probably averaging 10 minutes or less per week grounded prior to getting this. And now a third of my life, eight hours a day, is spent grounding. We can be sleeping grounded. Why would we not do this all the time?”
