Hello everyone,
I recently discovered this book here: http://www.amazon.com/Earthing-Most-Important-Health-Discovery/dp/1591202833
It talks about supposed effects on our bodies when we are directly grounded with the earth.
Because I am currently suffering with CFS, I figured I've got nothing to lose by trying it for awhile as a lot of people have apparently reported a dramatic improvement in their symptoms once grounding. So I want to conduct my own experiment.
Basically I want to move my PC/Laptop outside but still have it plugged in to the mains. I will most likely put it on a fold up trestle table.
Whilst using the computer, I will be bare foot with the earth. If I am using a wireless keyboard & mouse - is this 100% safe? I can't see why not. I was also wondering if a pair of headphones hooked up to an external usb sound card could be considered risky? or would I be better off getting wireless headphones as well so there is no direct contact between myself and the computer/laptop while grounded bare foot with the earth?
Please let me know as I obviously want this to be completely safe and don't know who else to ask. I did check with a local electrician and they said it would be fine (even with wired kb/mouse etc) because we're in a new building that apparently has a cut off switch if there are any electrical faults? but still, I want to double check. They did say to make sure to use a power surge board outside when plugged in however?
Look forward to your replies.
Thanks.
