I certainly don't want to be too negative (excuse the pun) but i was expecting great things, especially around the improved sleeping. The first 4 nights, my sleep was worse, hardly slept at all which was very frustrating. I still haven't slept through the night and wake often. I am willing to persevere for at least the 40 days, hoping things will improve.
Hi Maurice, thanks for reaching out. We're sorry to hear it's been a bumpy start, but we really appreciate you letting us know so we can help you get the results you're after.
It’s not uncommon for sleep to feel off for the first few nights. About 2% of people have a response like this, and while it's frustrating, it can be a sign of just how much your body needs the earthing connection. When you start grounding, your body kicks into a bit of a detox -cleaning out inflammation and rebalancing your system. It's much the same as going barefoot on the grass, but when we do it for longer periods (like while sleeping), that’s when the real benefits to wellness start to show up.
While we don’t get many 1-star reviews, some of our most successful ‘earthing stories’ started out with challenges. By sticking with it, most people end up with good results, and we really hope the same happens for you Maurice.
To help things along, here are 5 quick things to check:
1 - verify your ground - use a socket tester to make sure your outlet is definitely connected to the Earth.
2 - clear emf interference - try moving phones, lamps, or digital clocks away from your head/bed, as those fields can cause a bit of interference.
3 - stay hydrated - grounding is a conductive process, so being well-hydrated helps your improve your bodies conductivity and receive the earths energy.
4 - check connections - make sure the cord hasn't wiggled loose or been unplugged by mistake or is wrapped around any other cords/electronics.
5 - try foot placement - if the detox feels a bit intense, try moving the mat down to just under your feet for a few days to ease into it.

We recommend a 40-day commitment because research shows it is needed for real changes. Our 90-day trial offers ample time for your body to adjust without pressure.
I’ve also popped an email over to you so we can stay in touch and see how you’re getting on - we’re here to help in every way we can.

I feel like I haven’t slept, I enjoy such a peaceful, restful relaxing sleep. When I wake up I feel so calm and at peace.
We got this product to test how well the water ionizer worked and to see in real time that the products do as advertised and it worked great!
A neat little pyramid to add to the collection
This is a great product and has a huge amount of uses, the alkaline water options taste fantastic and keeps you wanting to drink more. It has a built in filter and is very easy to install.
We use the alkaline and acidic functions for cleaning vegetables and fruits, can use the highest acidic function for killing germs.
The mild acidic function is great for the skin and toner. There are so many uses here it really is a must have for the kitchen
Seems great, only week one, quick and fast delivery
I love my Shungite stone and copper bracelet. I feel supported and it is comfortable to wear. I would like to be able to get more of the Shungite jewellery and add to my collection.
I have already used the black filters for my water and decided to add fluoride filters. Easy to fit and happy with the taste of clean clear drinking water
I’m really happy with the shungite I purchased from Grounded Kiwi. The quality is excellent and you can genuinely feel the care that goes into selecting and sourcing their products. My shungite arrived beautifully packaged and feels solid, authentic, and powerful.
I also want to highlight the amazing service — fast delivery, clear communication, and that personal touch you only get from a Kiwi, family-run business. It’s refreshing to buy from a company that clearly values integrity, wellbeing, and customer experience.
I’ve already noticed a more grounding, calming presence from having the shungite around, and it’s now a part of my daily routine. I would absolutely recommend Grounded Kiwi to anyone looking for high-quality shungite and trustworthy service. I’ll definitely be purchasing again.
I’m so grateful I came across Grounded Kiwi and their grounding mat. From the very first nights of using it, I noticed a real difference in my sleep. I’m sleeping more deeply, waking up feeling calmer, and overall my nights are far more restful than before.
The mat is comfortable, easy to use, and feels like a truly well‑made product. Knowing it’s from a New Zealand company made it even better. I was a bit curious at first, but the results speak for themselves – my sleep quality has genuinely improved.
I’m really happy with this purchase and feel lucky to have found such a fantastic product. If you’re struggling with sleep or just want to support your overall wellbeing, I highly recommend giving Grounded Kiwi’s grounding mat a try. It’s been a great addition to my nightly routine.
I initially kept my tuning fork purchase to myself as I thought hubby would be a bit of a sceptic, but after seeing him struggling with his back that was playing up after a hectic physical week at work, I decided to offer some treatment. I got him to lay on the floor and I used the 128Hz fork all around his lower back, then across his shoulders. He said he felt a couple of internal 'pings' which I said could be the muscles unknotting. When he got up he said he felt amazing! Since then he's been self-treating most evenings (hip & knee) but says his back is nowhere near as sore. He's even talked about it to the guys at work (he loves to wind them up, so they are probably thinking he's gone mad!) and I've noticed he's taken the forks to work today(!) so I'll be interested to hear tonight how he's got on - and who he's converted! So you have an unexpected bonus happy customer, and happy me too :-) Thanks Grounded Kiwi.
Purchased the Universal size Forrest Green Bed Mat 💚 the limit edition design of this.
- It’s early days still & have only slept on it for 16 nights.
- After the 1st couple of nights I noticed I’m not as stiff getting out of bed the mornings & I’m having a deep restful sleep (I’m only waking once during the night) where as before I would wake 2-3 times during the night to go to the toilet.
My Dad had made his own grounding mat years ago, (he’s since passed 🕊️away) & I still have his mat, but it’s small.
When budget allows l’ll be purchasing more products Grounded Kiwi.
🙏Thank you for providing a great range of products. 😊👍
My new phone didn't match my headphone connector. A friend recommended I check for EMF protected headphones. The air tube headphone set has been a success for me as my sensitive ears can now listen more easily/comfortably to podcasts. Sound difference is subtle yet there is a DEFINITE SOFTENING of sound penetrating. The headphones fit snugly against my ears.
I have a severe reaction to wi-fi boxes, smart meter chips and anything even vaguely spitting out emf’s. My partner calls me the human EMF meter. It makes me quite restricted as to where I can go as it affects my heart badly. Since trying the SCRT T SHIRT I have way more freedom and way less reaction. It’s like a miracle. And I will be buying more.
Great product. Actually is what they say it is
well I put the mat on the bed as soon as it arrived, so have used it for 6 days now, I know I need to wait longer, BUT I actually slept for 5 hours the other night, and felt great,also feeling its helping to settle my legs , so looking forward to more benefits of my grounding mat, but time will tell,I will sure let you know how its going,at this stage I am so pleased I decided to buy grounding mat,Many Thanks Erine
Amazing product. Thank you for making it possible to have amazing water
The first night I put the grounding mat on my bed, I was 'out like a light'. I has been a bit more subtle since then but there is a continued feeling of calm to my days.
Was great to know my earthing was gonna work. The socket gave me confidence that the plug was doing what it should.
Awesome product.. Speedy Delivery.. A1 Great Company
I have noticed the difference in the amount of energy I have since using our mat, definitely feel like I have more motivation to get things done.
I toss and turn all night long. Im a very light sleeper and hear everything. I also have a glutes problem and wake up feeling like a old lady. I wake up feeling stiff and sore. I brought a grounding fitted sheet and was amazed with the results. Best sleeps I have had for years and my pain and stiffness not as bad in the mornings. I am thinking of buying the topper and pillows down the track.
I use this every night to help with sleep. I have noticed deeper sleep already, even though I have only been using it for a week or so.
Quality Business.. fast delivery and top quality products. Super happy with my Grounding Bedsheet.
I bought two of these to go with my grounding sheet and have lost one to my son who is also in love with the benefits. He is waking up happy! For anyone with a teenage son, this is a miracle ✨️ thank you!
