Electrified
The world we live in today looks vastly different from the world a few decades ago, especially from the technological perspective. I remember being a teenager when the first sleek cell phones emerged on the scene. What we are now able to do at the click of a button is seemingly miraculous, yet does it come at a cost? It seems nearly impossible to live without these days. How would we get across town without google maps? Or manage our personal, social and business lives without social media? Send a advertisement or hand written letter via snail mail?
It's important to consider how even the most life altering advancements also have another side to the story. This is the world of EMFs. Well, what the heck is an EMF? In the most simple terms an Eletro-Magnetic Field is a physical field or force produced by electrically charged objects. Everything from the earth, human beings, cell phones and wifi routers have a field, yet the difference is in how many oscillations are emitted per second measured in hertz. The field of the earth, also known as the Schumann resonance, emits a field of 7.83hz, whereas your cellphone is emitting 2.85 gigahertz/second- more than a billion times! We are looking at the difference between native and non-native (or man made) fields. One is balancing and essential to the body, the other creates free radical damage. I'll let you guess which is which.
So why does this matter? Constant exposure to smart meters, wifi routers, cell phones, blue tooth speakers and head phones, cell towers, "smart" anything and more have been demonstrated to cause mitochondrial dysfunction (a disruption in our energy producing pathway), oxidative stress & free radical damage, damages DNA and has been linked to infertility, anxiety, depression, and chronic fatigue, to name a few. In 2011 the WHO declared the radiation coming from cell phones as a class 2b carcinogen.
Yes, the world health organization has decided that cell phones can create cancer. Why is no one talking about this?!
If you've been in the world of holistic health long enough, you know that it's of utmost importance to take your health into your own hands, do your research and create strategies that protect you and your family. Below are some of my simple daily strategies I recommend for reducing our EMF exposure.
Turn off your wifi at night. Getting a christmas tree timer or kill switch to shut power off is an easy way to do so.
Use an ethernet cord for your computer if at all possible
Replace your microwave with an electric oven
Use corded headed phones, key boards and computer mouse
Avoid purchasing any "smart" appliances - washers/dryers, refridgerators that can connect to bluetooth and wifi
Keep your phone on airplane mode when it's not in use. If you must keep your phone on your body, keep it in a protective case like this one: https://slnt.com/
Get on the earth daily - expose your body to sunlight, put your bare feet on the earth- this will reconnect your body to the Schumann resonance
Unplug your devices when they aren't in use as it's easeful
Do NOT use bluetooth speakers. Instead, use an auxiliary cord
If you have a smart meter on your house, request your electric company to change it back to analog. This sometimes does come with a fee for a period of time, but it's worth it.
