Sleep It Off
Aug 18, 2022
A good night’s sleep is truly restorative. When we have slept soundly and long, we can feel it in mind and body, as we awaken feeling refreshed and well-rested.
Sleep gives the body a break from all the mental, physical, and emotional demands of the day. It replenishes our energy, lowers our heart rate and blood pressure, promotes healing, and strengthens natural immunity.
According to Statistics Canada, one in three Canadians between the ages of 35 - 64 report not getting enough sleep. While this can be due to distractions like staying up late on our devices or watching TV, ironically, some of the issues keeping us awake are the very things that sleep helps to repair: stress, inflammation, chronic pain, hormonal fluctuations, and more.
A grounded sleep can help.
Studies over the past 20 years have consistently shown that grounding and earthing results in series of wellness benefits. Both scientific and anecdotal reports have demonstrated that the human body responds positively to the earth’s electro-magnetic field; in fact, the earth’s naturally-occurring electrons stabilize our circadian rhythms and regenerate healthy cell activity. Those who practice earthing and grounding therapy - in nature or via grounding products - experience a noticeable improvement in overall health.
A grounded mattress pad is an excellent way to incorporate grounding techniques into daily life, for a better sleep and beyond. It simply fits over your mattress, on top of your bed sheets and plugs into a grounded outlet. If used camping or outdoors, it can be plugged directly into the ground.
Now available in our online shop, this soft, quilted sleeping pad is interwoven with 100% pure silver threads. Silver is a naturally conductive metal that carries the grounded current, which is absorbed by your body as you lie on the pad. In addition, silver neutralizes the damaging EMF activity of cell phones and other wireless devices that can also disturb our sleep patterns as well.
Unlike some grounding pads that are used under a sheet, this mattress pad is meant to be slept on. As with all grounded surfaces, it works best when in direct contact with your skin, so go as bare as you dare! Its velvety plush comfort will keep you cozy all night long, while you enjoy a deep and restful grounded sleep.
The Plush Grounding Mattress Pad is available in Small (Twin) and Large (Double/Queen). Includes Grounding Cord. For more details or to order, please visit:

CARE:
1. Wash in cold water on gentle cycle or by hand. Do not bleach. Tumble dry on cool only. Do not iron.
2. Silver threading has powerful anti-microbial properties that naturally kill germs, viruses, and bacteria, so frequent washing is not required.
A grounded sleep is a healing sleep, one that alleviates many of the things that can keep you up at night. Grounding is proven to ease stress, reduce chronic pain and inflammation, accelerate healing, relieve insomnia, and many other ailments.

Sweet dreams!
Please Note: Over time, after many washes, the silver threads may become worn and less conductive. To confirm your grounding mattress pad is working as it should, you may wish to purchase a Grounding Continuity Tester to check its conductivity from time to time. Before plugging in the pad, simply connect the Tester’s cord to a grounded outlet, place the tester directly on the pad, and press the button. A green light indicates the mattress pad is fully conductive.

In response to Brenda: For best results, you should sleep directly on the pad since the silver thread is the part that is conductive. It is possible to experience some grounding if you place a thin sheet over top, especially the longer you are laying, however it is best to be in direct contact. The sleep pad (not plush) is different in that the entire surface is conductive, therefore this option would be better if you plan on putting it under a fitted sheet.

Hi – I just ordered this and then I read this article and now I am confused. In the use and care section of this product, it said to use this under a bed sheet, and this is how I want to use it so that it doesn’t have to be washed as often, and also because I like the way my sheets feel on my skin, and I can’t be sure how this mat will feel on my skin. But this article is stating that this mat should be slept on directly, without a sheet. Please clarify. Thanks!
In response to Marcella: Yes, you should plug it directly into the wall outlet. If you do try and use an extension cord, be sure to use the continuity tester and check if you are grounded or not.
