Sleeping Grounded - Start Here

Sleeping grounded means maintaining your electro-magnetic connection with the surface of the Earth, while you sleep. 

How do you keep your electrical connection with the Earth?  Either by removing the insulating layers between your skin and the surface of the Earth, or by using a conductive tether between the two.

Here is a summary table of the cost, comfort and lifespan for some of the different ways to sleep grounded.

Outdoors

Existing Cable

Remove the power blades from the male end of an existing 3-prong power cable.  Cut off the female end and strip the insulating cover to expose 12-18 inches of bare cable.  Attach the bare end around your ankle and plug the single ground prong into the ground port of a properly wired outlet.
