Grounded

Grounded is not a venue. It's a wellness company that sells earthing products and educates people on grounding, or "Earthing": the practice of connecting your body to the Earth's energy. Think walking barefoot in the grass, but with products that let you do it indoors. The site was started by Dr. Stephen Sinatra and his son Step, and they've been at it since 2009. They sell mats, patches, sleep systems, and grounding shoes, all designed to act as "barefoot substitutes" when you can't get outside. The whole thing is based on the idea that touching the Earth helps balance your body's electrical state, which they claim can reduce inflammation and help you feel calmer. If you're curious about the science, they've got studies, books, podcasts, and videos. If you're just here to shop, the product range is pretty straightforward. It's a family-run operation with a clear mission: get people grounded, one patch at a time.
