The Grounding Yoga & Fitness Mat Kit helps to keep you grounded during your yoga practice or fitness session. Grounding during, or after, a workout can help you to recover more quickly from the workout and to reduce inflammation and muscle soreness.
You can use a Grounding Yoga & Fitness Mat in place of a normal exercise mat. Like any earthing product, the mat must be connected to the Earth either via a grounded wall socket, using the earthing cord and plug supplied or via a grounding rod (sold separately). Place the blue, non-slip side face down on the floor and exercise while in contact with the black conductive side of the mat.
Using a Grounding Yoga & Fitness Mat during, or after, exercise can help you to:
Yoga With a Grounding Mat Reduces Blood Viscosity
Earthing Speeds Recovery, Lessens Muscle Damage and Inflammation
Grounding Speeds Athletic Recovery and Healing

Earthing, or grounding, makes use of free electrons from the Earth to re-balance your body, stabilise its bio-electrical system and fight free radicals. Published research on Earthing indicates a broad array of favourable health-related results including:

A Socket Tester should be used to verify that your electrical outlet is wired properly for grounding. Simply plug it into an outlet, turn on the power and 3 amber lights will read that your outlet is grounded and ready for use with an earthing product.
The black top conductive layer (where your body makes contact) is made of PU (Polyurethane) leather that is vinyl free, and phthalate free. The PU leather is infused with conductive carbon which is what conducts the Earth's energy. The bottom, non-conductive layer is made of TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer) closed cell foam. This is among the safest foam available. It is latex and PVC free. This is the same type of foam used in footwear, and in children's foam toys.
To clean the mat, simply wipe down the mat using a non-corrosive cleaner. Do not use chlorine bleach or liquid fabric softener, or any detergent containing bleach or fabric softener, chemicals that can ruin the conductivity of the mat. Do not apply lotions, creams, or oils to the skin just before contact with the grounding mat. Such substances oxidize and can damage conductivity. Air dry the mat only.
Although it is highly unlikely that you will be hit by lightning, it is recommended to follow standard lightning safety guidelines as directed by the UK Met Office and disconnect your earthing devices (along with electrical devices) during lightning and thunderstorms.
