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 |
Bare skin contact with the surface of the Earth or through clothes made of natural fibers.
|

|
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.

|
Metallic Tape |
Adhere a strip of metallic tape across your mattress and connect it to a ground outlet using alligator clips and an extension cable.
|
||||||
| Wrist / Food Band |
Reusable elastic wrist band with conductive elements connected by cable to a grounded outlet or ground rod
|
||||||
|
Stick an Earthing patch somewhere on your body and snap an Earthing cable on and connect it to ground.
|
|||||||
|
Place a Universal Earthing mat on your bed. It can go above or below your sheet. It can also be inserted into your pillow cover.
|
|||||||
|
Silver threaded sheets |
Discontinued in 2017 due to low reliability and durability. Cotton sheets with 5% silver thread.
|
||||||
|
2nd generation carbon based pillow cover with built in snap connection.
|
|||||||
|
Ober developed carbon based mattress covers. Soft, 100% conductive durable surface. Provides a grounded surface for your whole body.
|
|||||||
|
Same as above but provides a wider surface to include your whole body's electric field.
|
Always sleep grounded.
