Oh, I could never go the route of the truly devout.* I like my skin... and it's not my religion. It's more of a sense of "ahh, good, there's the ground and it's still holding me up.* Good." If my mindset was just slightly different, I could EASILY have joined the Earthing movement.* But I always try to stay just on this side of oddness.* I don't have a problem with people who do the exposed mucus membranes connecting with the earth. [sitting on the ground naked with butthole touching earth]....** it's fine that they believe it and.. it might well be useful and helpful to them. It's just not my way.* I just like the sponginess of earth beneath my feet... even if it's concrete.* It's just a reformation of calcium in the end - all a part of things anyway.
