@@utubestalker.dotcom I'm not sure what an anti static wristband is. If it is conductive, I will highly advise against it. Metal bed placed near an electric socket is like an antenna emitting dirty electricity. Having anything conductive attached to your wrist and then to your metal bedframe will make it worse.
@@zacoliorganic really? I just recently moved and had to buy a new bed frame and it is metal.. and I have 2 electrical socket right next/under it. I have had this bed for about 4 months now and haven’t had a good night sleep yet.. I moved into apartment 7 floors up in city so try and make the effort to go to the park and take my shoes off but it gets hard..
Im just learning about this grounding stuff. I'm fascinated! I naturally need to be barefoot often and I think I have always veen this way. Now that my parents are older and cant be barefoot as much, I am excited to provide them with something beneficial like this. Im so grateful you made something so affordable someone like myself can make and not have to stress so much about the cost. Thank you for taking the time to do this! ❤
I live in a seconed story apartment. I made a home made canopy around my bed and idk if i should ground it outside theiugh the window or make a DIY outlet plug. Can you tell me exaclty step by step a list of what materials to get at home depot and how to install the ground or outlet and the safest way to go about doing it and where to put it so i dont get shocked?

Good video, especially showing us the readings on the voltmeter. Also think your ideas for Stainless and aluminum mesh are good. Although I particularly like the Stainless. Thanks

Be careful if there are wrinkles in the mesh as over time those can become creases with saw-like edges. I used 120 steel mesh and fixed it to a small, thin floor mat to keep it spread out. When the sharp bits manifested I just hot glued some craft felt over that bit.
Stainless might not connect to ground as quickly , but it brings me to zero in short order. I use an old radiator screen and plug into grounded outlet with only the ground prong on a three prong plug wired, of course. There are lots of ways to do this, I guess. I saw a video when I made mine and the presenter used screws to connect to his screen. I used small zip ties. 12 Gauged stranded wire. I feel like the zero state of charge I spend a lot of time in every day has reduced stress and inflammation a bit, so the time spent making my mat was definitely worth it.
what about taking out the house fuse that leads to your bedroom and removing all the electronics from that room (anything with a power cord) and just use battery power or solar power in there. so that you are not near any electro magnetic fields. you can add ESD grounded flooring so that when you step into that room you are automatically grounded, and then when you have down time just go barefoot in the backyard, park, or beach leaving all your electronics at home while you get rebalanced

@@zacoliorganic The wire I used was some extra electrical wiring it was very bulky to sleep on so I roughed it on that till I ordered the copper mesh and now I'm more comfortable at night they both work very well, watching you put yours together encouraged me thank you for your vid
I saw it on Amazon: www.amazon.com/Cotton-Fabric-Earthing-Conductive-Pillowcase/dp/B079S46XHM They also have a copper-infused fabric that is less pricey.
Nice project ! I make my own foot mat with foam / alliminium foil and a deck of plastic fly mess. The alu is pulling tru the fly mess and works perfect . I measurre from 2 volt to 0,009 volts ;-) i feel the energy out flowing out my body tru my feet in de mat.

The wall plug only has the earth pin. The other pins are just plastic, which does not conduct electricity. I explained this in my other video. You will need to buy the earthing wire from reputable suppliers.
Thanks for doing this video! You mentioned next time you might purchase a lower micron. Please indicate what measure you would go for? Trying to wrap my head around the micron thing....so 50 microns would be a larger weave than 200 microns? TIA!
I'll be looking at 100 or 150 micron. Might also want to consider using stainless steel which could be more durable but it won't be as conductive. Something to think about

Thank you for this. This is wonderful. I already had some copper fabric from Ali Express, so I have used that. I also had some copper tape so I used copper tape to join the grounding plug and the copper fabric together
@@zacoliorganic well I tried it last night. Definitely slept better myself. My wife didn't notice anything but I think it'll take some time. I'm waiting for my multi-meter to arrive so that I can see factually how effective it actually is.
@Elliott I haven't heard this either, however, it does make sense tho if where there are any ports, they will give off certain radius of conductivity from the main electric sources.... but... if one can't move away from the wall too far, one can always put up rubber mats etc on those areas so there is no conductivity flowing out from specific areas!? I am no tech, but basic science knowledge can be used here. Sometimes we got to use what we got or what is the most cost effective ways, and if that means we have to get creative and use rubber to try and eliminate the over excessive amounts of electric currents or EMFs, then it's better then nothing or not doing it at all! The mats are ridiculously over priced! Rip off's All the best 🙏

Hi Zacoli Organic, Can you please PUT A LINK to the exact place where you bought your mesh from? All I find is hard metal for gardens (against snails etc..) but can't find your fabric mesh anywhere. Please help those of us looking for this fabric. Thanks.
How long do you suggest first time users use. I assume it causes some detox symptoms so I would assume it would be good to start slowly. Thank you for your valuable information and backing it up with proof. I appreciate it 😊
@@zacoliorganic I love your video. Would you please post a link in the description of which one would be best. There are like 1000 different options on Aliaba and I am so confused as to which one would work best! It seems like allot of us are confused and we would all love your help!
Yeah she definitely need a fuse something look up the appropriate fuse to use on a different video but something that will break if you happen to contact something electrified in your house or God forbid your house get hit by like
yes, a 1 megOhm resistor should be fitted between the plug and mat to protect against electric shock - if you touched a live circuit (120/230V) while standing on the mat current would try to get through your body to the earthed mat, the resistor protects against too much current. If the mat's purpose is ESD protection, the resistor won't cause a problem.
Thanks so much for sharing. Do I need my whole body to touch the mat or only just one feet touch is enough? Becauss some websites sell grounding mattress.
You will have to search for copper mesh or stainless steel mesh. I got mine from alibaba but have to buy a roll of it which is quite dear. I recommend stainless steel mesh for longevity. Say about 150 microns. Mine was 250 microns and it can tear easily.
What about an aluminum window screen, would that be a good alternative to copper mesh? And what about making some type of wrist band or foot band out of conductive material and connect it to the mat with an alligator clips and wire at bedtime, thus bypass the need to expose body parts to have direct contact with the mat? Or, bypass the mash altogether, and have above wrist band set-up plug directly into the grounding receptacle? Just thinking out loud here🙂❤
yes you can use aluminium window screen but make sure it is not coated. has to have the aluminium exposed. wrist band or foot band will work too but it won't ground you as effectively as there's less surface area to connect you to the ground. still better than nothing
That's what I use it's quite prickly sometimes I know I can take care of the edges but so far I haven't but I figured it's doing a lot more good than the discomfort
@MsBoontjie - It will not work "as well". Just Google the conductivity of stainless steel vs copper. Here is a link to a table defining the conductivity of various metals: eddy-current.com/conductivity-of-metals-sorted-by-resistivity/
Yes it will. The colour will turn but I havent found it to impact conductivity. Perhaps longer term it wil? Thaats why i recommend lower micron, so perhaps you can brush to clean? But i know stainless steel will work too, and perhaps more durable. Just rememver conductivity will not be as good that's all.
I was wondering if it would work if placed under the fitted sheet on the bed at night? Would it still ground us with the layer of cotton sheet between our skin and the copper?
hey girl, I liked your video very much, but only thing I am in need is if you can list out those 4 materials that are required for grounding ; very thankful to you!
Hi, The four materials are 1. Wire mesh (we use 99.99% copper mesh 250 micron but find it tears to easily. Try a lower micron). You can buy this from eBay or Alibaba 2. Masking tape or duct tape 3. Grounding rod if put in earth or grounding wire if connected to socket (if grounding wire you will also need to buy the plug) 4. Voltmeter or multimeter
the only issue i has was the poky metal staging me every once in a while. I made one out of a 1x24" copper plate which is much more expensive but also much more durable and will last a life time and look much better
I am living on 2 floor above and I connected directly to ground using electric wire. Then i connected that wire to the grounding mat. I also checked whether it is really earthed using earthing checker and it shows earthed. When i touch the mat and try to sleep, the heart beat is little faster but constant why like that? I can't sleep when grounded. What to do? Anything with length of the wire? I have 15 meter wire connected to ground or wire thickness? Or any othet way to do properly?
Thank you for great video. Can you please share the settings on the multimeter. Meaning which wire goes where and what setting is it on? I bought a new multimeter its giving me strange readings. Not sure what I am doing wrong.
Hello I have a question if I buy copper fabric do I have to lie directly on the fabric to get grounded with no clothes on or can I put the copper fabric under a sheet and still get the grounding effects? Does it have to be skin to copper fabric or will it work going through other fabrics, I want to make something for my bed. I found the copper fabric and grounding plug with no insulator so should be ok I just wonder if it has to be skin on only
You can lie on top of the bedsheet doesn't have to be directly on the copper grounding sheet. Even the tiniest bit of moisture will help with grounding. I know because I've tested it with my voltmeter, laying on top of a bedsheet
Hey I made the same after watching your video so thanks but my multimeter is not sensitive enough for body voltage. Does yours still work under a thin bedsheet? Can you please let me know?
Yes it works under a sheet. As there will always be some level of moisture through sweat etc, you still get grounded through a sheet on top of the grounding mat.
Thank you very much, this was so helpful! I recently learned about earthing/grounding, and bought a few mats from the Earthing Store, but would like to make my own. This video was great and your directions were so easy to follow! Much appreciated!

I’d advise people not to plug into your wall socket ground. Go bury it directly into the earth. I’ve seen videos of the electrical smog or radiation rather coming Off mats that plug into the ground of your wall outlet. She has no device to check and measure for this FYI. Just bury it out your window and you can still close and lock your window. Best sleep of my life doing it this way
Yes I hardly agree that it's four volts difference between my ground plug and my ground in the dirt somebody should make a video to this effect and show the dangers of it also using a shielded wire like a cable wire should be implemented to keep it from being like an antenna I'm picking up noise and electrical smog
Red cable in V/Ohm/mA Black cable in COM Set dial to AC (alternating current) voltage; it's the V with the wavy line next to it It might be good to look at some videos online for more specific instructions. Just look up how to measure AC voltage with a multimeter. She appears to be using an auto-ranging device, which is more expensive, but easier to use.
PLEASE DO NOT TRY TO MSKE VIDEO ALONE, TAKE HELP OF YOUR FRIEND SO YOU CAN TAKE CLOSE VIEW TO SHOW FINAL DETSILS OR IT WILL BE YOUR WASTEGE OF VALUABLE TIME ALONG WITH VIEWER TIME. MAKE VIDEO AGAIN FOR MORE CLEAR CONCEPT
you have to buy an Earthing adapter which is a plug with only metal on the earth connection, then you insert the earthing cable metal lead into the adaptor and plug int wall socket.
Hi Zacoli, do you know if stainless steel mesh is suitable? I have some and it is pliable like your copper mesh, but strong and does not tarnish easily.
Yes stainless steel will be a great alternative. It doesn't oxidise like copper does so it's more durable. Just noting that the conductivity will not be as good as copper so it's a trade off. I would like to use stainless steel if I can find some
Are you looking to make your own? If you are looking to buy, you can just look up grounding bed sheet. If you are looking to DIY, you can buy the copper mesh from Alibaba. They should ship to the U.S. For the grounding pin, you can purchase from any shop that sells grounding mat.
Maybe I've left below a too long comment so long story short is: Why does not in apartment grounding for a week now, night and day have the slightest sign in reducing leg, arms, throat inflammation or improve sleep neither to me or my family? It was made through a wire soldered to the copper pipe in the heating system and metal plates applied on the skin. Multimeter shows voltage drop to 0 when touching the plates so it's grounded. And I was so optimistic about this... Thank you!
Hi Jackal inflammation can be caused by many different things. Exposure to EMF is just one is them. To fix inflammation, the first thing i will look at is diet, and things to avoid at all cost are gluten, unfermented diary, grains, GMO food, processed food and soy. Grounding will simply reduce your body's burden from EMF exposure in the form of electromagnetic fields. It may not help with exposure to RF radiation from wifi, mobile phones, smart meter, 5G etc. If i have chronic illnesses, I'll first deal with it using food (check out the GAPS diet), then remove as much EMF exposure as possible, stay grounded and support your body in detoxification (detox bath, infrared sauna, etc).
Doing just one thing will not make the problems go away. You will need to look at the big picture and deal with the issue holistically ie diet, low tox lifestyle, grounding, detoxify, emotional health, etc
I realize you comment is 2 years old, but..... Maybe your grounding items will make you feel better if all of one type of metal is used. Since the pipe you attached it to is copper, I would try all copper. Dissimilar metals touching each other can also lead to galvanic corrosion. Also, one metal might have a clear coating on it, so no real contact is made.
Just to update- I got my grounding sheet, also made a little carpet for my desk area from aluminum mesh. Hooked up to fat copper wire wrapped around aluminum peg which I sanded down and stuck in the ground outside near the AC water outlet so it's always moist... I felt horrible and super tired every time I was in contact, tried for a week and seemed to have a really bad effect....): Stopped for now, I don't know how to measure the effects or why it made me feel so bad (maybe picking up some dirty electricity from somewhere, maybe on a bad energy line?)- if anyone has any input I'm listening 🙏
Walking barefoot outside touching concrete or grass or dirt, yes you are grounded. With sock as long as its cotton socks or any socks with natural fibre that wicks moisture easily, then yes you will get grounded.
Sorry i just reread your comment. Whether you get grounded or not inside the house will depend on your flooring. You get grounded with concrete floor but not with carpet or timber floor. Unsure of tiles, havent tested it.
the universe moves again just when my old grounding met needs replaced I find this great video earthing - has been a life changer for me

That's what I use it's quite prickly sometimes I know I can take care of the edges but so far I haven't but I figured it's doing a lot more good than the discomfort
Check put the wonder bracelet on RUclips here. ❤
NEVER put aluminium on or in your body or food!!! Together with fluoride and mercury it destroys synapses in the brain!
Thanks for the video! Would stainless steel mesh work as well?
@MsBoontjie - It will not work "as well". Just Google the conductivity of stainless steel vs copper. Here is a link to a table defining the conductivity of various metals: eddy-current.com/conductivity-of-metals-sorted-by-resistivity/
Yes, it will work but not as well as copper. Copper is one of the best material in terms of conducting electricity.
@@zacoliorganic
Wouldn't copper oxidise over time?
Yes it will. The colour will turn but I havent found it to impact conductivity. Perhaps longer term it wil? Thaats why i recommend lower micron, so perhaps you can brush to clean? But i know stainless steel will work too, and perhaps more durable. Just rememver conductivity will not be as good that's all.
Can I hold the end of the grounding cable & get the same result without the mat?
Grounding safety fundamentals in that video
Where did you get this copper mesh? Couldn't make out your words.
Algum brasileiro pra explicar?
if you put it on the bed and cover it with a cotton sheet, will it work as well?
It will still work well. The sweat and moisture will help transmit the electricity
I was wondering if it would work if placed under the fitted sheet on the bed at night? Would it still ground us with the layer of cotton sheet between our skin and the copper?
Yes it will. Even a teeny weeny bit of moisture from your body will ground you even with a cotton sheet in the middle.
@@zacoliorganic Thank you for clarifying.
hey girl, I liked your video very much, but only thing I am in need is if you can list out those 4 materials that are required for grounding ; very thankful to you!
Hi,
The four materials are
1. Wire mesh (we use 99.99% copper mesh 250 micron but find it tears to easily. Try a lower micron). You can buy this from eBay or Alibaba
2. Masking tape or duct tape
3. Grounding rod if put in earth or grounding wire if connected to socket (if grounding wire you will also need to buy the plug)
4. Voltmeter or multimeter
@@zacoliorganic thank you very much for detailed explanation.
the only issue i has was the poky metal staging me every once in a while. I made one out of a 1x24" copper plate which is much more expensive but also much more durable and will last a life time and look much better
Fantastic. Do you mind sharing the link of where you purchase your 1 x 24 copper plate?
Yeah but you can't hardly sleep on it can you
I am living on 2 floor above and I connected directly to ground using electric wire. Then i connected that wire to the grounding mat. I also checked whether it is really earthed using earthing checker and it shows earthed. When i touch the mat and try to sleep, the heart beat is little faster but constant why like that? I can't sleep when grounded. What to do? Anything with length of the wire? I have 15 meter wire connected to ground or wire thickness? Or any othet way to do properly?
That's great! Do you have to run your wire from 3rd floor all the way down to the ground??
Zacoli Organic Yes and is that okay? And how you ground normally?
Yes totally! It great to be able to ground directly into the earth rather than through the socket. It gives a much better grounding. Good on you!
I ground through the earthing pin on the socket on the wall. Result is not as good.
You may want to invest in a circuit breaker. If there's lighting or something it will cut off the circuit to protect you
Thank you for great video. Can you please share the settings on the multimeter. Meaning which wire goes where and what setting is it on? I bought a new multimeter its giving me strange readings. Not sure what I am doing wrong.
You will need to follow the instructions but you will need to ground one of the leads.
thankyou so so so much for your video
Uh-oh I feel seasick😢
Hello I have a question if I buy copper fabric do I have to lie directly on the fabric to get grounded with no clothes on or can I put the copper fabric under a sheet and still get the grounding effects? Does it have to be skin to copper fabric or will it work going through other fabrics, I want to make something for my bed. I found the copper fabric and grounding plug with no insulator so should be ok I just wonder if it has to be skin on only
You can lie on top of the bedsheet doesn't have to be directly on the copper grounding sheet. Even the tiniest bit of moisture will help with grounding. I know because I've tested it with my voltmeter, laying on top of a bedsheet
I was amazed by how she picked up volt meter with her foot.
Asian toes - multi-purpose.
Hey I made the same after watching your video so thanks but my multimeter is not sensitive enough for body voltage. Does yours still work under a thin bedsheet? Can you please let me know?
Yes it works under a sheet. As there will always be some level of moisture through sweat etc, you still get grounded through a sheet on top of the grounding mat.
@@zacoliorganic oh great! Thanks for replying :)
You should also ground your pillow; you will sleep much better :)
Yes i do!
Thank you very much, this was so helpful! I recently learned about earthing/grounding, and bought a few mats from the Earthing Store, but would like to make my own. This video was great and your directions were so easy to follow! Much appreciated!
That's brilliant! Glad I can help. Let me know how you go with your diy
That's brilliant! Let me know how you go with your DIY.
@@zacoliorganic Thank you so much! I will!
I live in a seconed story apartment. I made a home made canopy around my bed and idk if i should ground it outside theiugh the window or make a DIY outlet plug. Can you tell me exaclty step by step a list of what materials to get at home depot and how to install the ground or outlet and the safest way to go about doing it and where to put it so i dont get shocked? I'm new to this so it would really mean a lot. Thank you 🙏
From where can i find plug without insulator ? Plz reply 🥺
What do you mean without insulator ?
*Mahalo!! :)*
Your voice is very soothing
Thank you
I’d advise people not to plug into your wall socket ground. Go bury it directly into the earth. I’ve seen videos of the electrical smog or radiation rather coming
Off mats that plug into the ground of your wall outlet. She has no device to check and measure for this FYI. Just bury it out your window and you can still close and lock your window. Best sleep of my life doing it this way
This way is bes but only if the rod is not very far. Otherwise the wire is too long and will start acting like antenna, I think
Yes I hardly agree that it's four volts difference between my ground plug and my ground in the dirt somebody should make a video to this effect and show the dangers of it also using a shielded wire like a cable wire should be implemented to keep it from being like an antenna I'm picking up noise and electrical smog
If you don't mind, what multimeter do you use and how do you use it to measure the volts?
thank you for this very good video.
I use the voltmeter. :)
Red cable in V/Ohm/mA
Black cable in COM
Set dial to AC (alternating current) voltage; it's the V with the wavy line next to it
It might be good to look at some videos online for more specific instructions. Just look up how to measure AC voltage with a multimeter. She appears to be using an auto-ranging device, which is more expensive, but easier to use.
7:51 the grip is crazy
Thank you kindly Zacoli Organic!! 💓
My pleasure. :-)
PLEASE DO NOT TRY TO MSKE VIDEO ALONE, TAKE HELP OF YOUR FRIEND SO YOU CAN TAKE CLOSE VIEW TO SHOW FINAL DETSILS OR IT WILL BE YOUR WASTEGE OF VALUABLE TIME ALONG WITH VIEWER TIME. MAKE VIDEO AGAIN FOR MORE CLEAR CONCEPT
Very good but after you tape wire to copper sheet, how did you connect wire to electrical outlet? Are we supposed to know that?
you have to buy an Earthing adapter which is a plug with only metal on the earth connection, then you insert the earthing cable metal lead into the adaptor and plug int wall socket.
Or any adapter will do also just need attach the cable to the earth pin right? @@amara6656
Very helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
You’re so smart!
Thank you.
i really want to make one of these. thankyou for sharing
Go for it! I suggest using stainless steel as copper does tarnish with time.
Can you cover the copper mesh with bed sheet ? Youcant sleep directly on top of the mesh.
great video and thanks for show us how to make sure. God Bless You.
Thanks, you too!
Excellent video. Thanks for posting it. Greetings from Niterói, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Greetings from Oregon. In the Beautiful Columbia River Gorge!
Put a natural fiber material to encase it for increased longevity? Cotton, pillow cases or sheet maybe ?
What is the cord you are using? where did you get it?thanks!!
You can just google grounding bedsheets. Any company that sells grounding bedsheets will sell the cords.
Thank u sooo much
Thank you so much I will be trying this with the Cooper mesh because Cooper is so good for the body!
I have natural Bamboo flooring. Is it grounding?
What copper mesh #/ aperture would you advise? Thanks
What’s the name of your testing machine please?
Voltmeter
It's a voltmeter
Hi Zacoli, do you know if stainless steel mesh is suitable? I have some and it is pliable like your copper mesh, but strong and does not tarnish easily.
Yes stainless steel will be a great alternative. It doesn't oxidise like copper does so it's more durable. Just noting that the conductivity will not be as good as copper so it's a trade off. I would like to use stainless steel if I can find some
@@zacoliorganic Thanks. Try here: www.ebay.com/itm/114779583195?hash=item1ab96572db:g:hwAAAOSwqclgg0PV
Thankyou 👏👏
You're welcome 😊
What micron is best for an earthing sheet? Thanks
The one i use is 200 micron but i recommend less as this one tears easily. Perhaps try 150 micron?
Do you know where I can find these materials in the USA?
Are you looking to make your own?
If you are looking to buy, you can just look up grounding bed sheet.
If you are looking to DIY, you can buy the copper mesh from Alibaba. They should ship to the U.S. For the grounding pin, you can purchase from any shop that sells grounding mat.
I linked some items of materials found in the US in the comment section of this video
@@appl3jax498 I can't find your links anymore... Have you removed them? Please share again. Thank you.
Appl3 Jax also couldn’t find your comments😔
Not sure if this ships to the US
m.alibaba.com/product/1600206284248/50-100-200-mesh-red-copper.html?s=p
Where did you get the copper mesh?
I got it from Alibaba. Just search for 99% copper mesh and look for sth between 100 to 150 microns
But you will have to clean or change this mesh regularly because copper stains fast just in 2-3 days
You are not meant to sleep on the mat directly. You will put it underneath a cotton sheet.
Or you can use stainless steel mesh
Did your sheets turn blue? Ours did. They are white and blue now. Will be replacing with skin safe material.
Eventually it does. Perhaps a better option is to use stainless steel mesh although it isn't as conductive.
Thank you!! Thank you!!
great filming🤣
Maybe I've left below a too long comment so long story short is: Why does not in apartment grounding for a week now, night and day have the slightest sign in reducing leg, arms, throat inflammation or improve sleep neither to me or my family? It was made through a wire soldered to the copper pipe in the heating system and metal plates applied on the skin. Multimeter shows voltage drop to 0 when touching the plates so it's grounded. And I was so optimistic about this... Thank you!
Hi Jackal inflammation can be caused by many different things. Exposure to EMF is just one is them. To fix inflammation, the first thing i will look at is diet, and things to avoid at all cost are gluten, unfermented diary, grains, GMO food, processed food and soy. Grounding will simply reduce your body's burden from EMF exposure in the form of electromagnetic fields. It may not help with exposure to RF radiation from wifi, mobile phones, smart meter, 5G etc. If i have chronic illnesses, I'll first deal with it using food (check out the GAPS diet), then remove as much EMF exposure as possible, stay grounded and support your body in detoxification (detox bath, infrared sauna, etc).
Doing just one thing will not make the problems go away. You will need to look at the big picture and deal with the issue holistically ie diet, low tox lifestyle, grounding, detoxify, emotional health, etc
@@zacoliorganic Thank you very much!
I realize you comment is 2 years old, but..... Maybe your grounding items will make you feel better if all of one type of metal is used. Since the pipe you attached it to is copper, I would try all copper. Dissimilar metals touching each other can also lead to galvanic corrosion. Also, one metal might have a clear coating on it, so no real contact is made.
Just to update- I got my grounding sheet, also made a little carpet for my desk area from aluminum mesh. Hooked up to fat copper wire wrapped around aluminum peg which I sanded down and stuck in the ground outside near the AC water outlet so it's always moist... I felt horrible and super tired every time I was in contact, tried for a week and seemed to have a really bad effect....): Stopped for now, I don't know how to measure the effects or why it made me feel so bad (maybe picking up some dirty electricity from somewhere, maybe on a bad energy line?)- if anyone has any input I'm listening 🙏
Wow that's very interesting. Did you check with your voltmeter that you are indeed getting grounded?
@@daviddc214 I just got a voltmeter! How do I check??
Have a look at my other grounding video, which will show you how to use the voltmeter
Here it is. ruclips.net/video/uL74vBlwSWY/видео.html
Attach the grounding lead to the ground and touch the grounding mat and hold the other lead at the same time. The voltmeter will tell you the voltage.
Thank you for this video❤
I didn't understand you said attach to ground pin on plug do you mean I'm confused isn't it dangerous? Please explain thank you
You can buy the plug from anywhere that sells grounding sheets. The plug will have the ground pin active and the other pins in plastic ie inactive
Something like this.

Hello, can you tell me where you purchased the grounding wire and what its called please? Thanks so much, Natalie
Alibaba
You can buy the grounding wire from any shops that sell grounding sheet
Are we grounding by just simply walking barefoot or with socks on inside the house ?
Walking barefoot outside touching concrete or grass or dirt, yes you are grounded. With sock as long as its cotton socks or any socks with natural fibre that wicks moisture easily, then yes you will get grounded.
Sorry i just reread your comment. Whether you get grounded or not inside the house will depend on your flooring. You get grounded with concrete floor but not with carpet or timber floor. Unsure of tiles, havent tested it.
Thank you ❤
Great video. Could you do a video about campsite type cooking with just wood and sticks.
Yes I can. Did you see the video about cooking a few meal on a rocket stove made by bricks?
@@zacoliorganic I believe I did.
