Edgar Cayce and the importance of Grounding (2024 Holiday Special)
Hi Friends,
When Edgar Cayce was giving the Readings, he didn’t have to cover a lot of the challenges we’re currently dealing with because they hadn’t yet developed into problems.
For example, the environment used to be a lot more conducive for energetic grounding the earth than it used to be. Wood floors were preserved with varnish (linseed oil, mastic plant resin, etc) or shellac (made from a chemical obtained from bugs, I think). Shoes were made out of leather.
Today the shoe industry has standardized on rubber soles. Polyurethane-coated wood flooring became available in the 1950’s - polyurethane is a type of plastic. “Luxury vinyl” is now being commonly used as flooring in homes. These products look nice, but they’re entirely made with petrochemicals. The top layer is usually a type of clear PVC (polyvinyl chloride).
All of us would do well to take actions to improve our grounding daily. I’ve been anti-shoe for a long time. When I go outside barefoot, I try to get a little bit of time on the dirt. Walking barefoot on grass is an energetic intervention that’s widely available. Leaning against a tree can also be helpful.
A few years ago met a woman who was a little chatty. After 45+ minutes of listening to her I realized she was (metaphorically) “high as a kite”, and would certainly benefit from becoming more grounded.
I dug into my bag and found a few of my grounding coins. “I have these made for me in Northern Arizona, and I’d like to give this one to you.”
Her voice changed instantly: “What is this?” She must have felt the effect.
“I call it a grounding coin, because it helps improve the body’s energetic connection to the earth. It was invented by Edgar Cayce…”
Edgar Cayce only ever mentioned carrying a piece of high-carbon steel on a person’s body in a single reading:
“Do not take this as being something of superstition, or as something that would be a good luck charm, – but if the entity will wear about its person, or in its pocket, a metal that is carbon steel – preferably in the groin pocket – it will prevent, it will ionize the body– from its very vibrations – to resist cold, congestion, and those inclinations for disturbance with the mucous membranes of the throat and nasal passages.”
– Edgar Cayce Reading #1842-1
Cayce usually recommended using the vibrations of chilled carbon steel by mediating with a device he called the Radio-Active Appliance. This name referred to how the body’s energies are kind of like radio waves, and can be harmonized by the vibrational properties of high-carbon steel. Because this device is not radioactive (referring to the breakdown of heavy elements like plutonium, uranium, polonium, radium, etc, into lighter elements), Cayce’s invention was renamed the Radial Appliance sometime in the post-WWII period.
Some other ways to improve your body’s grounding include walking barefoot on grass or the ground and rubbing a stainless steel spoon on the tops and bottoms of your feet. Epsom salt and baking soda baths can also be helpful for balancing your body’s electric charge.
In years past I’ve gotten emails asking for a holiday special. This year there are two options:
Winter 2024 Combination Package: One 1.5” grounding coin, One 1.5” grounding coin with a hole, one grounding pendant, and 1 bottle of Electric Iodine™:
The three-packs of 1.5” coins are also available again at last year’s holiday prices. These are also available with holes.
Electric Iodine™ is my version of Cayce’s iodine supplement (referred to as atomidine in the Readings - this product was available until the 1970’s from the original manufacturer). I covered the importance of Iodine in previous emails:
Summary: The foods that have a significant amount of iodine are some kinds of seafood (seaweed, fish, shellfish, etc), eggs and diary. Iodized salt is an unreliable source of iodine because the iodine gradually evaporates away after it’s manufactured (unless you live in Russia, where they use a more stable iodine fortification for salt).
If you don’t eat eggs, dairy or seafood, it’s easy to become deficient in Iodine. A few drops of Electric Iodine a week guarantees you’ll consume enough iodine to keep your metabolism functional.
There are many interventions to restore broken metabolisms. Edgar Cayce covered most of what we need to optimize our health.
Adequate sunlight exposure, grounding, and iodine are some of Edgar Cayce’s core strategies for improving health.

p.s. I only have one apple brandy barrel in stock - this one has a spigot. Usually people use these to turn cheap liquor into fine liquor, but Edgar Cayce said to use them for the inhalation of apple brandy. If the website says it’s on backorder, I’ll probably be able to ship in about 3 weeks.
My Radial Appliances kits are currently available with a plastic case. I recently happened to meet a person who works at a local machine shop - they’ll certainly be able to help me make a new container. My radial appliances have used cases made with square brass tube, but the brass tube company didn’t respond to my request for a quote a few years ago. I’m working on making a new container out of copper tube.
