How does ‘grounding’ work?

There seems to be plenty of evidence to suggest that connecting with the Earth has beneficial effects on health and in particular is efficacious in resolving many inflammatory conditions. However, the exact mechanism by which this happens is unclear and claims of electrons flowing into the body are unsupported by either experiment or theory.

More likely is the idea that some sort of flow of ‘field vortices’ (scalar waves) is responsible for the effects we are seeing.


The standard explanation

Shown below, a 200 volt difference is claimed between head and feet and this is said to drive electrons up into the body through the feet to relieve some electron deficit in the body.

The 200 volts is the bottom end of a 200,000 – 500,000 volt difference stretching up into the ionosphere.

A cloud of electrons covers the Earth’s surface. It doesn’t dissipate into the atmosphere and doesn’t creep up our positively charged shoes and doesn’t drift to our positively charged bodies through the air. The electrons wait until we walk barefoot and then suddenly enter our bodies and somehow are guided to where they are needed.

Problems with this idea:

  • None of this has been demonstrated
  • Why don’t the electrons at the Earth’s surface repel each other and dissipate?
  • Are the ground based electrons the cause or the result of the field?
  • How do the electrons move against the field gradient to our head?
  • How do the electrons move to the interiors of our cells?
  • Where did the electrons come from?
  • Why am I still alive?

Measuring the field

Fair weather atmospheric electricity – R.G. Harrison

Field gradient at Reading Observatory was measured using a field mill and the results are shown in the chart below.

Field gradient (PG) measured at Reading observatory using a ‘field mill’.

The field gradient varies considerably and even becomes negative during rain. Does this mean that the entire field up to the ionosphere has inverted or is it just a local change?

If the field is really caused by a potential difference between the ionosphere and the ground then how do local variations occur?

What happened to all the electrons during the rain and how did they return afterwards?


Field mills

A home made field mill is pictured, consisting of two capacitor plates, the top one spinning around like a windmill to create an alternating current from an assumed ambient field. [video] The measurements are calibrated against some laboratory experiment and measurements from the mill are then interpreted as ‘field gradient’.

Concerns

The device only ever measures effects within a gap of a millimetre or so. Any field gradients outside that are calculated rather than measured. It is assumed that the field gradient will be more or less uniform over the range required and so the result for local measurements are simply multiplied up to the desired height.

Effects near to the ground are surely dominated by the presence of the electron cloud? They are not necessarily representative of what happens further up in the atmosphere or even towards the top of the body.

It seems unlikely anyone has explicitly measured the 200kV difference between 10,000 feet and the ground. I didn’t find evidence that a 200 volt difference has been measured between a person’s head and feet.

If only local effects have been measured then the possibility should be considered that only local effects are present.

We have two metal plates in close proximity moving at speed and driven by a motor! How much voltage is induced by the machine itself?

If a field mill is calibrated in a laboratory then there is an implicit assumption that its behaviour within laboratory conditions is somehow representative of what happens outside the laboratory and under the influence of different weather conditions.

Other instruments give similar results to a field mill but that still doesn’t mean much other than that possibly the same artefacts are being created by slightly different techniques.


The central problem of ‘charge physics’

Standard texts on physics will describe an electric ‘field’ as being created by charge separation, with ‘charge’ being synonymous with ‘electrons’.

To create an electric field between the Earth’s surface and the ionosphere then, we need to separate out a great deal of electrons and move them towards the Earth somehow.

The problem now is that the field thereby created has a gradient that promotes the movement of electrons upwards, away from the Earth, and since it is the electrons themselves that are the actual cause of the field we find that the field gradient is constantly diminishing and destined to disappear altogether.

The electron gradient is seemingly both the cause and the result of the field at the same time!

We therefore are looking for some method of somehow pushing the electrons back to the Earth’s surface against the field gradient caused by their own accumulated charge.

The most common explanation for this is that lightning strikes bring the electrons back down to ground level where they spread out and distribute themselves fairly evenly over the ground.

This is becoming a typical theme of classical physics whereby anomalous phenomena are ‘explained’ by some sudden violent outburst such as a Big Bang, electrical ‘discharge’ or atomic deterioration.

This approach is particularly unsatisfactory in this case as:

  • We are still assuming charge move against a field gradient – how?
  • Lightning can go upwards and even sideways as well as downwards
  • Electric currents themselves do not consist of moving electrons: What is electricity?
  • A better explanation is given for lightning by Konstantin Meyl here: Ozone Engine

Vortex physics

Field discharge in the atmosphere is not uniform but instead in the form of vortices. The image shows helical discharge of an electric field which has somehow become visible as condensed water molecules. Similar patterns arise from the ‘corona’ discharge of power lines.

A field mill then is a device for catching field vortices of whatever configuration. The vortices enter the metal plates and spread out to form smaller eddy currents within the conductive environment. The moving plates create further electric turbulence which will find the propitious environment of the output wires and thence to the measuring device.

‘Current’ forms out of the melee and some pointer device is coerced into moving. These phenomena as a whole are interpreted as ‘field gradient’.

What happens if a few field mills are placed vertically one above the other? If a uniform field is present then they should all measure the same gradient. If the theory of vortex discharge is true then the top mill will harvest most of the crop and the lower ones will register progressively less ‘voltage’ as less vortex energy is available.

If it is claimed that a field does exist but that the mill is somehow distorting the gradient then what guarantee is there that what is being measured is what was actually there in reality and not simply an artefact of whizzing capacitor plates?

‘Voltage’ itself is an averaged measurement of field activity: What is electricity?

Static electricity is really just a collection of field vortices: Static electricity


Scalar waves in biology

Scalar waves (field vortices) are the medium of choice for the transport of both energy and information within biological systems:

Grounding is said to be a cure for many inflammatory conditions and there are papers on curing even ‘covid’ which is arguably a result of the excessive energy or informational ‘noise’ on seasonal vortex discharge.

Most people do not require grounding to maintain good health.

Many diseases are the result of bad regulation: Bio-regulatory medicine and regulation is via a scalar wave bio-field.


Eclipses

The solar neutrino stream increases in density during an eclipse causing possible ill health and making grounding essential:

In the case of an eclipse of the sun effects on the biology, like problems with the heart among affected, at least can’t be excluded. If the scalar wave density increases above the density which is normal, then this has a positive effect on the economy of energy, as long as the body is capable to regulate the amount taken up. If the regulatory process however should fail . then the risk of a self-inflammation exists. Also straw bales and other organic and inflammable materials could thus go up in flames.” – Konstantin Meyl (Scalar Waves)

How does grounding work?

Many inflammatory conditions then are the result of energy mis-management. Energy is stored in various forms in the body but scalar waves are one of the more versatile. Too much of this energy however leads to imbalance, fatigue and inflammation.

Grounding provides a direct connection to the Earth which dissipates the excess energy and enables healing, often resulting in instant cures. So grounding is not the result of any energetic or charged input but instead the release of accumulated energy.

No need for vast voltage differences or wading through electron puddles.

What causes pneumonia?

Legacy biology claims that aggressively reproducing bacteria are responsible for cell death in the lung tissue. The body tries to frantically repair the damage whilst the immune system is responsible for killing off the bacteria at the same time.

The New Biology paradigm is happier with the idea that it is the tissue that dies first and that the bacteria are not causal in the process but are merely opportunist scavengers that live off dead tissue.

But what causes the tissue necrosis in the first place and why is the lung tissue seemingly more susceptible to this type of disorder than other parts of the body? Why is pneumonia common in hospitals with supposedly strict hygiene protocols and why does it seem to be a progression of other respiratory conditions such as influenza. Why don’t the nurses ‘catch’ it?

First consider that the lung tissue needs a continuous supply of energy in order to maintain it. This is assumed to come from oxygen in the blood delivered via the capillary system. The job of the lungs though is to absorb oxygen from the lung cavities and deliver it to the rest of the body and this is achieved via a separate capillary system, the pulmonary capillaries.

The coexistence of two such systems is a complexity not seen in the rest of the body and I will guess that this restricts the number of maintenance capillaries somewhat thereby making the whole system a little delicate and meaning that any extra input of energy in this area would be most welcome.

Konstantin Meyl has stated that such an additional input exists in the form of electromagnetic field vortices which are transferred from fresh air through the lung tissue directly to the bloodstream. Air that has been breathed and had insufficient time to recover is depleted of vortices and depleted of energy.

Gerald Pollack has written a paper going a step further, claiming that there is no exchange of oxygen at all in the lungs and that all energy input is via electrical energy.

Hypothesis: This energy is not merely necessary as an input to the bloodstream, but is vital for the maintenance of local lung tissue. These vortices will be absorbed directly into the lining of the lungs and assist in maintaining healthy cells. Exercise will increase breathing and proportionately increase energy intake. The inhalation of stale air will reduce energy intake.

We can see now the possibility of necrosis prior to bacterial proliferation.

An already weakened patient is confined to bed and immediately suffers a decrease in energy input to the lung tissue and in due course the intake of stale air further reduces available vortex energy.

Nurses and carers do not succumb as they are walking around, breathing more air and not spending 24 hours a day inhaling ‘dead’ gases.

The disease seems to be a progression of a viral infection but it is a consequence of bad treatment instead.


Treatment

If the cause is a lack of energy in the air then we should expect that the treatment should consist of .. exposure to fresh air!

The open air treatment of pneumonia – W P Northrup

Our systematic practice was to put all pneumonia patients during the day, for six hours, on the roof, in the open air, in all weather in which harsh high winds, rain and snow did not prohibit. Indeed, the patients were not always brought in for little sprinkling rains or trivial snowfalls, and many times were out when high snow banks formed a corral about the space in which the beds were grouped” – Northrup (1906)

Gradually, after most careful precautions and constant watching, it became the firm conviction of all observers that such patients were decidedly benefitted thereby.”
