Uno Vitas Earthing yoga and exercise mat
An advanced grounding mat that combines yoga, meditation and exercise with safe grounding to the earth's electric field. The mat is made of PVC- and latex-free materials, has a quilted surface for comfort, non-slip underside for stability and is supplied complete with connection cable and grounding solution. 🌍🧘♀️⚡

Summary
Uno Vita's Earthing yoga and exercise mat (71 × 50 cm) allows you to experience the synergistic effects of yoga and earthing in one practice surface. When the body is in skin contact with the mat and this is connected to earth, electrons from the earth's potential can neutralize free radicals and reduce measurable induced body tension from modern electromagnetic environments (WiFi, mobile, appliances). The combination of yoga and grounding gives increased calmness, better concentration, more flexibility and faster recovery. The mat is also flexible in use: under the feet at the desk, as a lying surface in bed or sofa, or even for pets.

Health effects
• Better focus and stress reduction: Yoga in itself balances the nervous system, but in combination with grounding the effect is enhanced through a reduction in cortisol levels and a calmer state of mind 😌
• Improved circulation and flexibility: Grounding can reduce blood viscosity and improve oxygen distribution, which results in more flexible muscles and better endurance 🌱
• Better sleep quality: Regular use of an earthing mat has been shown to contribute to the normalization of the circadian rhythm and deeper sleep 😴
• Surprising/less known effect: Studies (FEBS Open Bio, 2025) show that grounding can increase the cells' ATP production by 5-11%, which provides more energy at the cellular level and better recovery ⚡
• Less inflammation and faster recovery: Grounding can reduce inflammatory markers and shorten recovery time after physical activity 🔥
• Natural antibacterial effect: Silver fibers in conductive textiles have a documented ability to inhibit bacterial growth, and contribute to a cleaner training and meditation environment 👕

Why grounding is important
• The earth acts as a huge reservoir of free electrons that can help neutralize free radicals.
• The body is exposed daily to electromagnetic radiation (WiFi, mobile, devices). Grounding reduces induced voltages and acts as a natural shield.
• Many people report better sleep, calmer minds and more energy when grounded regularly.
• Hypotheses also link grounding to the Schumann resonance (~7.8 Hz), which lies in the same frequency range as alpha brain waves and HRV, and can support the body's own rhythm.

Use and connection
• Roll out the mat on a flat surface. Place feet or hands on the conductive side for direct skin contact.
• Attach the spiral cord (6 m) to the metal button on the mat.
• Connect the other end to a grounded outlet with a grounding plug or to an outdoor grounding spike. The socket does not need to be switched on.
• The mat can be used at a yoga studio, at home, in the office or as a compact travel solution.
• Can also be used horizontally as a sitting surface for meditation or as a foot mat under a desk.

Technical specifications
• Size: 71 × 50 cm
• Materials: Conductive cotton/silver on wear side, quilted padding for comfort, non-slip underside
• Connection: 6 m spiral cable with push button attachment and built-in safety resistor (100 kΩ)
• Accessories: Grounding mat, connection cable, grounding plug or grounding spike (optional)

Areas of use
• Yoga (asana, pranayama, yin, restorative)
• Meditation and breathing work
• Training and mobility
• Foot mat by the desk
• Grounding in bed or sofa
• Can be used by humans and pets

Safety
• Always use the supplied cord and plug.
• If you are unsure about the earth connection, use socket testers or earthing spikes.
• Avoid tripping hazards by placing the cord safely.
• When simultaneously touching the mat and laptop/tablet for charging, some may experience a slight tingling sensation. This is harmless, but can be avoided by disconnecting the charger, grounding the device directly or using an external mouse/keyboard.

Washing and maintenance
• Wipe off regularly with a damp cloth and mild soapy water.
• Avoid bleaches, fabric softeners and strong detergents - these can weaken the conductivity.
• Air dry completely before storage.
• Wait at least one hour after using skin creams/oils before use.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
• Must the plug be left on? No, the grounding works anyway.
• Can I use an extension cord? Yes, if it is grounded.
• Can I use the mat abroad? Yes, but be aware that some adapters do not have ground. Use soil spikes if necessary.
• How long should I ground myself? The more time, the better. Yoga sessions of 30–60 min are ideal, but all periods of grounding count.
• How long does the product last? Several years with proper maintenance.
