We are living in an amazing time right now with the rapid breakthroughs in science and technology. It seems every year, there is another invention or gadget to help us be more productive and work longer on all our endeavors. However, things are not always peachy in our modern-day electronic paradise. There is a downside to all these technological advancements. Mainly in the way these electronics are having a negative effect on our bodies. Most electronic devices emit electromagnetic force fields ( EMF’s) at high frequencies that are detrimental to our health. The main adverse effects of emf’s include:
- Damage to the blood-brain barrier causing head-aches and migraines.
- Disruption of the immune system promoting the degeneration of cells.
- Emf’s also affect blood pressure and heart rate negatively.
- They disrupt our sleep cycles and sleep quality.
That’s just the tip of the
iceberg. Luckily there are measures you can take to eliminate or
drastically reduce the harmful effects of emf’s.
Tips for the Mind
1. Cell phones are the number one culprits responsible for this issue as they are virtually glued to our bodies 24/7 nowadays. The most harmful thing you can do is to hold the phone directly to your head when you are answering the phone. Instead, use the speakerphone to answer the call. If that is not feasible because you are in a public area, use either wired headphones or bluetooth headphones. They do actually emit their own emf’s but the effects are negligible as they are extremely low frequencies. The real danger is the cell phone and you should also keep it away from your body when possible. Also, turn airplane mode on before you carry it in your pockets and before going to bed. There have been studies showing its adverse effects on sperm count and the genitals from prolonged exposure.

2. In addition to emf’s, there is another problem with electronics. Try to limit the time that you are on all screens. They are too blue on the light spectrum. It is a form of light pollution for your eyes because they are constantly trying to filter that radiation out when you stare at the screen. This makes you feel tired, lethargic and needing more rest. It has also been shown that blue light hinders our body’s melatonin production. This reduces sleep quality and disrupts your sleep cycle. Luckily for those of us who make a living in front of screens, there are hacks for that. You can get blue-blocking glasses that effectively reduce this effect on your eyes. There is also a free program called f.lux that automatically calibrates your computer’s light settings to minimize this effect. Lastly, the iPhone and most cell phones have a night setting on them to automatically adjust this for you. Just look in your settings.
3. If you have children, pay attention to their digital consumption. There have been numerous studies that confirm that prolonged exposure to video games, t.v, tablets, etc. have really detrimental effects on their cognitive and psychological development. These include restlessness, sleep disorders, lack of social engagement, and addiction to their electronic toys to name a few. Try to limit their screen time to a maximum of 3 hours tops That is being very lenient. Less is always better if possible. It’s good to lead by example so unless your work involves computers, best to follow your own advice.
Tips for the Body
1. If you own a microwave, donate it to the nearest nonprofit thrift store. That baby pumps out the most emf’s out of all household electronics. If your cell phone was a bullet, the microwave is a grenade as a comparison. Also, you are using radiation to atomically agitate the food to heat it up. Does that sound healthy to you? There are better options. You can get a convection steam oven that is the same size and heats up the food at the same time as well. You can also vouch for the traditional way which is stovetop and it will save you some cash from having to purchase another appliance. It’s also better for the environment which is a win-win! Besides, what’s the rush? Slow down and enjoy the process. Learn to enjoy taking the time to prepare what nourishes you. Consider it as a moving meditation.
2. Now that you are aware of junk blue light on your screens, you should be aware that they are also hiding in plain sight. The fluorescent lights in most offices and the ever so efficient LED’s are also blue devils in disguise! Our wallets may love the savings LED’s bring, but its pollution for us. It’s also a good idea to invest in amber or red LED lights to turn on when the sun goes down. This mimics sunset and will signal your body to start preparing for bed by ramping up melatonin production. If you need more light, candles are a great way to brighten up any space and add extra ambiance. If you look at it in another way, we are living energy systems. If you are not aware, there are trillions of ancient bacterias called mitochondria within all of us. They are the building blocks of all life on earth. They have evolved within us from single-cell organisms to multi-cell organisms, to multi-organ creatures, to our present-day self. To have healthy mitochondria is to have a healthy energy system. So think of your body as a giant battery bank and they are the energy that charges up your system. All these negative effects of electronics diminish your mitochondria’s ability to operate effectively. There are many things that you can do to optimize their performance, hence optimizing your own energy levels. More on how to do this here
3. The last tip is to turn off all wifi using devices when you go to bed. The last thing you need is to have emf’s zapping away at your body while you sleep. So turn off all your phones, laptops, tablets, etc. If you really need some devices on, then at least put them on airplane mode and away from your body before you rest. There are some people who live in condos or apartment buildings however, that doesn’t have this option. Even though you can turn off all your devices, you will still be bombarded by the wifi and harmful emf signals of your neighbors. Fortunately, there’s a hack for that. You can get what’s called a grounding mat. It’s a mat that is specially designed to eliminate emf signals when you lie on it. It has a cord that you plug into the ground (center hole of the outlet) of any electrical socket. Here’s how it works. Devices plugged into the ground part of a socket are protected by having all faulty currents running to ground. All grounds from devices are bonded together inside the walls. Through a series of connected wires, cables, and equipment, they are eventually brought to a huge copper pole or metal plate that is buried deep in the ground. Therefore, your mat is connected to the ground through this pathway. This will cause the mat and anything touching the mat to have a neutral or zero charge in voltage. Another name for Emf is voltage and can be measured. If you have an earthing mat already, you can prove this to yourself by using a multimeter on the voltage setting. Alternatively, you can look up “how-to” or demo videos online.
Tips for the Spirit:
1. Despite your best efforts to reduce all the harmful effects of electronics and blue light, it can get a little overwhelming sometimes. If you realize the computer or device that you are using is making you feel totally drained, stop what you are doing and go outside immediately. The most optimal light is sunlight so go outside and soak up some rays to re-energize and revitalize your body. An added bonus is that you will be getting some much needed natural vitamin D as most of us are deficient in this. This is true, especially in the western hemisphere. If its extra cold where you are at, then try to move your work station to a window. If you’re stuck in a cubicle, then take your breaks outside or near a window. If you live somewhere that’s always cloudy, you can buy something called a SAD(seasonal affective disorder) lamp. It’s a lamp that is designed to mimic the spectrum of the sun’s rays so you can have nearly the same effect indoors. It will also improve your mood. Lastly, you should supplement with vitamin D as most of us don’t get enough of this vital supplement. Also, it’s optimal to take it when you first get up. If you take it late at night, your body will think its daylight and you will have issues trying to sleep.
2. If you can manage to go outside, try to take off your shoes and go barefoot. When you walk around in shoes all day, you build up an excess of protons in your cells. This is due to the rubber in your shoes keeping you insulated from the ground. This will prevent you from releasing this excess of protons into the earth. Over time, because you are not grounded this will create an imbalance in your body. A good indication of this is when you feel your stress levels going sky high. Stress releases cortisol and too much cortisol over time, causes inflammation and disease. So it’s very important to connect with the earth often to release this excess in charge and balance your body’s energy systems. If walking barefoot is not an option, the use of a grounding mat will do the trick as well.
3. Finally, as much as you can, get away from the city and get back into nature! The city is where all those harmful emf’s, electrosmog, and unnatural light pollution is. Better yet, live outside the city if possible. If not possible, spend what time you can in nature. It will also reset your circadian rhythm. This is your body’s natural biological clock that runs in sync with the sun and the moon. Back before artificial light, we use to rise with the sun and sleep with the moon. This was how we used to be to perform optimally. In our hectic modern-day society, we have fallen out of sync with this rhythm. This junk light has given us the ability to stay up long after when we were supposed to sleep naturally. Over time, this will take a heavy toll on your body. Plus the clean fresh air, amazing beauty of mother nature is just what you need to recharge, revitalize and re-energize your mind, body, and spirit. So start planning your next amazing outdoor adventure today!!! If you have any questions, comments or input, I’d love to hear about them below.
