Grounded Kiwi Gives Back

We are proud to provide support to Taranaki Kiwi Trust. Helping support the team's great work to care for our Kiwi on Taranaki Maunga and throughout Taranaki.

Part of the proceeds from all sales is donated to the registered Trust.

The Trust was formed in 2001 and has led the way in protection of the existing remnant kiwi populations by way of trapping. It has also played a significant role in increasing populations through the translocation of birds to new sites from the Taranaki Kohanga Kiwi at Rotokare, a partnership with Rotokare Scenic Reserve Trust.

$500 Donation to the Taranaki Kiwi Trust

Some days it's not easy to send money off for a donation, but whenever I hit that button, the feeling is good. Giving back to our community has always been part of what Grounded Kiwi and our family stands for. Whenever I 'Give' the universe provides. Today, Grounded Kiwi is being squeezed by low-quality overseas competitors using blatantly illegal scare tactics to trick people into buying from them, which significantly squeezes us out. I will just continue to live by my values and continue to give!

As a New Zealand-owned and operated earthing company, we understand the importance of staying connected to our roots. Just like the kiwi, we’re grounded! Just as we encourage you to support your own wellbeing by connecting with the earth, we also encourage you to shop locally and support local businesses. By doing so, you’re investing in your community and helping organisations like the Taranaki Kiwi Trust thrive.

Happy Earthing,

Contributing to society has always been important to me. Giving back is a privilege that my family and I enjoy. Supporting those who are doing good is truly rewarding, and you won’t find more down-to-earth people than those who work tirelessly at the @taranakikiwitrust to ensure that future generations can enjoy our native birds thriving as they once did.

Today we have made another $500 donation to the Taranaki Kiwi Trust. 

Happy Friday! to all and thank you everyone for being part of the Grounded Kiwi journey were we aim to improve the quality of life of every Kiwi through earthing and natural health.

Shungite Bracelet with 8mm Beads

Alway wear my bracelet. As I work ETF environment feel protected

Waking up without brain fog for the first time in years

I can't afford a bed-sized grounding mat, so I got myself this small mat and am using it in bed, either under my torso if it's warm enough to sleep without a T-shirt on, or under my legs if not.
After only one night I could feel the difference.
It is SO GOOD to wake up with a clear head. Thank you!

Isn't Earthing so cool! It is a completely natural way to help the body. Thank you for the review - Happy Earthing - Blake

Very Pleased with the 9000 ppb Hydrogen Water Bottle

I have been using the 9000 ppb hydrogen water bottle for almost 3 weeks now and am very pleased with the results. Often it is difficult to tell with health interventions if they are having a positive impact or not, but I am quite sure the hydrogen water has improved things for me. I have Crohn's disease with associated chronic inflammation and chronic fatigue. My energy levels have certainly improved enabling me to exercise more which I'm thrilled about. I haven't had my inflammation levels tested since using the hydrogen water but my trips to the bathroom have decreased indicating an improvement there for which I'm very grateful. I use the 18 minute cycle 3 times a day. This is one intervention I will definitely continue to use.

Awesome! Thank you so much for the review and good on you for looking at way to support your wellbeing. I understand (through a friend of mine) how bad chrons can be, not just on the body but the constant struggle with energy that 'plays on the mind'. Thank you so much for writing such a detailed review that I hope others will read and get benefit from. Thank you Joan - Blake

Goodbye neuropathy

I didn’t know what to expect when I tried my sisters grounding sheet. But I was surprised that the next day after using her sheet that the neuropathy in my feet was over 50% better. Parts of my feet have been numb for over 25 years. So I was sold on the benefits. I ordered my own sheet which I use under my cotton fitted sheet. My sisters was a silver thread one which I didn’t want as you have to wash it regularly and I could see it might not last long so I went for the carbon sheet from Grounded Kiwi. It arrived quickly with updates on where it was and when to expect it. I don’t notice the sheet under my fitted cotton sheet although there is a warm feeling to it probably just my body warmth reflected. There is an improvement in my feet the more I use it. I am also sleeping better and it’s a deeper sleep. I would have paid the same price as the sheet cost if I could go to a doctor and he could have given me the same benefits. So glad I have the benefits without using medications, but something natural. It should be standard that Beds should be made with grounding sheets made into them so everyone can experience the benefits. I will definitely recommend to anyone. Grounding is great.

Truly amazing! What a change and I am just so happy for you! Thank you for sharing your experience of our earthing mat. I know other people in a similar situation will get great benefit of reading your words.

First time in decades, I've slept this good

Im in love! Since sleeping on the Earthing mat, I feel rested. Its a calm, peaceful, quiet presence and im so thankful I finally invested in a mat. I'm a shift worker and this mat is nothing short of a miracle.
Not only does it give me better sleep, I also have a nigly knee from a torn cartilage, years ago. The earthing mat always sooths it and sees it right the next morning.
Sometimes I feel like I go to bed broken, and the mat gently puts me back together. I really cant imagine living without an earthing mat anymore.
If anyone is sitting on the fence, this is your sign! I higly recommend it!!

It's reviews like this that warm my heart and keep us going. I just love being able to help people with Earthing.
Thank you so much for your review of our earthing mat Caroline

Worth the gamble

Best purchase ever! Results after first night to better sleep; muscle recovery improved; hormones balanced.. Amazing and I cannot understand why everyone doesn’t have a grounding Mat? I’m waiting on the sales to buy my kids one each.

BEST PURCHASE EVER! - What a review! I love helping people

Radiant Shungite: Polished Egg

The gift of giving naturally

I was drawn to the Shungite egg as a way to help with the energy in my bedroom and protect me naturally
While I sleep. I was also looking for something a bit different for a friend of mine who had given me a gift also
So I thought that’s perfect it’s special unique and all natural. We both love them. From the moment I held my egg I felt connected and grounded .
Thank you Grounded Kiwi.

Hi there! Thank you for sharing your experience with our Shungite egg. We're so happy to hear that it has helped with the energy in your bedroom and that you and your friend both love them.

Very responsive

I was skeptical but keen to try. Turns out I had quite an experience with tingling feet and hands and then shoulder and legs. I had deep sleep and my husband said his head felt clear in the morning. That's just the first night, with thick brushed cotton sheets and nightwear.

Hi there! Thank you for your feedback on our Queen Earthing Mat with Two Pillow Covers. We're so glad to hear that you and your husband had a positive experience with our product. It's great that you both noticed improvements in your sleep and overall well-being. We hope you continue to enjoy the benefits of earthing.

Love my Shungite Trapezium Pendant. Used to have a disc, this is so much better.

I love this Shungite pendant to. Thank you so much for the review and it makes me so happy to see people enjoying our range as much as I do!

Very happy rookie Grounder

I received my order quickly, and eagerly installed the bed sheet and pillow cover. I was pleased with how easy it was. I had been a little concerned that I would be able to feel the grounding items under my bedding, and especially the pillowcase one. I was pleasantly surprised at how soft and flexible the grounding sheets are, and I cannot feel them at all! I've noticed myself sleeping deeper... waking up in the morning and realising I haven't woken at all during the night and a friend commented I look more rested than previously. My dogs also seem to want to spend more time on my bed than they used to, so I think they are also picking up the grounding! I'm very happy with my purchase.

Hi there! Thank you for leaving such a lovely review. We're thrilled to hear that you are enjoying your new Double Bed Earthing Mat and Pillow Cover. We're glad to hear that you found them easy to install and that they are soft and flexible, providing a comfortable sleeping experience. It's great to hear that you have noticed a deeper and more restful sleep, and even your dogs seem to be benefiting from the grounding effects! Thank you for choosing our Wellness Bundle and for sharing your positive experience. Sweet dreams!

Really enjoying the grounding sheet, I used to wake up very early in the morning with a lot of pain and stiffness in my lower back and it has all but disappeared and sleeping considerably better now

We're thrilled to hear that our Super King Earthing Mat has made a positive difference in your sleep and overall wellness! It's wonderful to know that your lower back pain and stiffness have lessened since using our product. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. Wishing you continued comfort and restful nights ahead! :)

Earthing Mat Satisfaction

I have been researching and thinking of a getting a grounding mat for our bed for a while. Finally got it and super stoked I did. After just a week I’m waking up without lower back pain that I’ve constantly had for years!

Now thats cool!
Thank you so much for sharing this. SO happy to hear that earthing has helped you out with the back pain. It sucks waking up and still being in pain! Not any more!

Powerful shungite…

… which turned out to be far more powerful than its promise. I am a fan of Mt Shasta so have renamed this beautiful precious stone.
I really appreciate the care and attention the team at grounded Kiwi bring to all of their products as well as the follow-up they provide.

Hi there, thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to leave a review. We are thrilled to hear that our Ultimate Shungite has exceeded your expectations and has become a powerful addition to your collection. We also love the new name you have given it, and we truly appreciate your support and trust in our products. Thank you again for choosing Grounded Kiwi, and we look forward to serving you in the future. Take care!

Happy desk mat

I'm extremely sensitive and go through phases of struggling to earth because my whole body spins and I'm left dizzy for the day even after just 10 minutes of earthing, so I brought this small earthing/emf mat for my desk because I felt it maybe a nice way to just stop and sit with the mat for 10 minutes and see if I can work through the feelings. It's still intense, but I've been able to stand up and be okay with a few uses. I also purchased it because I let a friend borrow my other medium sized mat. The mats are very well made. The desk one is a decent one for a phone etc devices, added emf bonus with the phone on my lap at times. An as always extremely fast service from Blake and the team at Grounded Kiwi, worth supporting this awesome business.

Thank you for sharing your experience with our Earthing Desk Mat! We are happy to hear that it has been helpful for you and your sensitivities. Our team takes pride in creating quality products and we appreciate your support. Keep on grounding! - The Grounded Kiwi Team

Why didn't i buy this sooner!

For a long time i have suffered from pain everywhere it seems! I'm also at that age where perimenopause is kicking my butt with sleepless nights, body aches , needing a nap during the day etc. After coming back from a short break away in which involved alot of walking my body just didn't cope well. So when we got home your product came up on my news feed. I thought why not got nothing to loose by trying....
Well!! arrived very quickly and i promptly put it on my bed and bedtime rolled around, my body started tingling once i layed down which lasted 2 nights, but when i woke the next day i was energized! Walking was so much easier , the pain in my hips and knees had eased, my muscles were less tense. My brain fog had gone. I felt like a younger me again not a 52 year old lol. It took maybe 3 nights before i noticed i was sleeping so much better and whats even better my husband's snoring has got quieter so he must be sleeping better to !
So summary, painfree at the moment, more energy, better sleep, what more could you ask for. You won't regret buying one. Thank you for changing our lives.

Love the review! Thank you so much Shona!
Happy Earthing - Blake
