Learn how to protect yourself and your family, or your patients. Learn how many related symptoms are being diagnosed and treated. Dr Sinatra will also present the health benefits of grounding and how this technique should be used.

Soil is the foundation of landscape health. Whether you grow ornamental gardens, turf or vegetables, you need to understand how soil works. In the past we have looked at soil primarily as a "growing medium" - something lifeless and sterile. But soil is the exact opposite - it's an ecosystem, and needs to be managed as such. The greatest biodiversity on earth occurs - or should occur - in the top few inches of soil. Soil ecosystem health and plant health are inseparably linked.

Lawns have a reputation for being toxic zones and water hogs - but these are not intrinsic qualities of the lawn. They are instead the result of chemical-based lawn management practices, that destroy the soil ecology, reduce the soil's natural water holding capacity, and make the grass dependent on ever increasing chemical inputs. Certainly, it is possible to manage lawns differently, but this requires a shift in thinking, a different way of looking at your garden.
