Do you sleep on an earthing mat Ibo?I have a mini earthing pad but don't notice any immediate benefit from using it so haven't been using it very much.
I bought the half sheet which is much bigger than the mat (I don't know if this matters). If you go to the actual website of the manufacturer (not Upgraded Self.com) they sell various earthing products. The biggest improvement I had is that my sleep quality greatly increased to the point that I can function extremely well on just 7 hours. Actually unless I am sleep deprived, that is all my body lets me sleep. I feel like it really set my circadian rhythms well. I get tired at 11 PM and I wake up around 7:30 AM like clockwork. I also have noticed improved recovery from my workouts.Supposedly, earthing is also anti-inflammatory and protects you from EMFs. I highly recommend this article http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3265077/.

Thanks for the link. Have you washed the sheet and noticed any difference?

The sheet is designed to be washed, so I don't think that will be a concern. I haven't washed it though, to be honest I only wash my sheets like three times a year haha.

Thank God I'm not the only one.
Febreeze = Clean Sheets ;D
Also if you take a shower before bed (like what I always do) do you need to wash your sheets every week?

Actually yeah, you really should. The average bed has between 100k-10m dust mites and they can impact your immune system and make you hyperallergenic, sometimes resulting in asthma. Not really worth it. You can get away with every couple of weeks but why not just buy a couple sets of nice 100% Egyptian cotton bed sheets (aim for a thread count 600-800+) and change them every week, alternating between sets.If not for yourself, think of the ladies 🙂 Seriously though, I invested in the best memory foam mattress, pillows and sheets I could afford. Best purchase I ever made.
That's so cool Ibo 🙂I'm eating bulletproof (except on CN) and I also use the emWave2. I didn't even know how stressed I was until I used it and realised what relaxed felt like!I'm also using the PowerPlate nearly every day. Love it. I totally thought it was a silly fad until I read the research Dave Asprey points to. Anything else? Oh yeah, mega dosing on vitamin D. I've listened to all of his podcasts and there is just so much implementable info in them.
Fairy you seem to really rate the emWave2, have seen you talk about it a couple of times. It's not cheap, but is it worth the investment?

If you sweat like I do on CN, hell yes!

When I got my emWave2, I spent a good three days straight meditating with it. And it changed my life. I still use it for 10-20 minutes every day or so. So yeah, of course it's worth WAY more than $200 to me. Put it this way: I fired my psychotherapist (and then my boss) a few weeks after getting it. I'm not getting depressed any more. My sleep patterns have gone from erratic (had an appointment with a sleep specialist which I had to cancel because there was no longer any problem to speak of) to normal. I can't say if it will do the same for you, but I will guarantee that if you use it your life will improve. (Note: I said if you 'use' it, not if you 'buy' it; buying it isn't enough 😉 ). Oh, and get the desktop version.

I totally agree! Luckily for me I always seem to have dated clean freaks, to the point that until encountering this post I was under the delusion that men really like having clean sheets. Ha. I had actually rationalised that men might be more inclined to change their sheets more often because it was easier for them to lift up big heavy mattresses. However, now I see my hypothesis is absolutely flawed.

Sounds great just from the EMF aspect 🙂 might have to upgrade!

The inclination of men changing their bed sheets is linked exponentially to the probability of a naked girl being present in said bed. I think it is the first rule of hygienebednamics 🙂 Being a clean freak is no good though, the body needs some contact with pathogens to keep it on its toes! Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2

Exactly, the probability of a naked girl being in my bed is zero :(. Therefore the probability of me having clean sheets is zero

Looking at your profile pic I find that a little hard to believe but if you are serious check out a book called 'The Game' by Neil Strauss. Read it with a pinch of salt but it seriously changed the way I interacted with women. I have always been very selective with my partners but this took it to a different level. This book focuses on the 'how to get laid' element of meeting women, but in reality there is a much better and more potent message to the book which I won't ruin. You may also find that you stop being attracted to 'girls' and start seeing more 'women' - the difference I define in attitude, not physically or in years.If you find meeting women difficult/scary/rare then I would recommend this book. Don't live by it, just take what is useful to you and remember to ALWAYS treat women with the respect they deserve.I am not kidding when I say this but I met my long-term partner, who competed at national level for Swimming and missed the cut for the Olympics by 0.3 seconds when I weighed 19 stone and 40% BF. Her exact words to me during our first weekend together were "I never thought I would date someone 'like you' but now I realise that doesn't even matter". Considering the effort you put into looking after your health, this will be a doddle. PM me if you have any questions. I got quite into PUA a while back and it was fun, but I was never bothered about scoring numbers, the chase was far far more fun for me.
