從小到大我碰過的老師大多都很好，今天就想跟大家聊一下其中一個對我最重要的老師，也可以說是我最喜歡的一個老師。也是我感到遺憾，沒有跟他保持聯絡的一個人。

Most of the teachers I have met when growing up are very good. Today I’d like to share with you about one of the teachers who is the most important to me. We can also say he was my favorite teacher. He was also someone that I regret that I did not keep in touch with.

Today I will be discussing a topic that I found very interesting, and I hope you do to, It is something I have started doing and I definitely feel the positive effects. Today I am discussing grounding at first, this may sound a little woo-woo. But the science behind earthing and grounding is compelling: The earth is abundant in free electrons (negatively charged) that when connected to the body can help neutralize free radicals, providing antioxidant and immune-boosting properties

Grounding also called earthing, is a therapeutic technique that involves doing activities that “ground” or electrically reconnect you to the earth for various health benefits.
We walked barefoot and we slept in contact with the Earth never realizing that its surface contained limitless, natural, healing energy. Walking around barefoot is not our main mode of travel any longer. We live indoors much of the time and when we do walk or run outside, we wear rubber-soled shoes which prevent our feet from being able to absorb the Earth's subtle energy. Rubber is not conductive, but our bodies are!
