How to keep your home EMF/Microwave safe

Having seen from previous posts how much extensive research is now available showing a clear link between compromised health and exposure to EMF's/Microwaves, I thought it would be helpful to give some guidelines around how to keep your home EMF/Microwave safe. This post will focus on things to look out for inside the home:

Microwaves:
  1. Mobile phones: use as little as possible and never store it anywhere near your body (i.e. pockets, attached to belt, etc...)
  2. Microwave ovens: best option is to not have one, however if it must be used ensure you stay far away from it while it is on.
  3. DECT cordless phones: these are even more damaging then mobile phones because they are constantly emitting pulses of microwave radiation (whereas a mobile phone only does so when a call is incoming or outgoing). It is best to replace all cordless phones by regular landlines. If it is not feasible, ensure you keep these phones away from any bedrooms (keep in mind microwaves can travel very easily through walls), and preferably unplug from the socket when going to sleep at night.

Electromagnetic Fields:

The most important space that absolutely should be free of electrostress are the bedrooms. Your body's cells regenerate themselves while you sleep and you need to do everything you can to not compromise this process.

  1. Ensure there is no wiring under your bed.
  2. Keep a non-electronic alarm clock next to your bed
  3. Unplug any side lamps directly from the socket before going to bed
  4. Avoid having televisions and stereo systems in your room. If you can't live without it, then always ensure you unplug at the socket before going to bed (keeping it on standby has the same effect as keeping it on).
  5. There should be no computers in the bedroom.
  6. When sitting in front of a computer stay as far away from the screen as you can & consider investing in a screen filter if using a desktop.
  7. Laptop computers give off more fields when plugged into the socket, however they become much safer when operating on battery only. It is still best not to have them on your lap.
  8. Avoid using electric blankets (and always ensure you turn them off before going to bed if you are using one)
  9. Avoid having electric heaters or ovens. If there is a need to use a night storage heater it should be kept at least 1 meter away from the bed.
  10. Try to not sleep with your head near an electric socket.

I hope the above tips will help get you started on keeping your home EMF/Microwave safe. In the next post, I'll provide some suggestions for being vigilant of external causes of EMF/Microwave emissions.

Dr. Brené Brown's quote from Teddy Roosevelt "Daring Greatly"

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly.” Teddy Roosevelt Best is the man who tries and fails than to never have dared to live his dreams for fear of failing. At least the former has lived. Do not be afraid of what others might think or say of you, you are the one that is daring to live greatly.

Insights into Yoga Sutra Aphorism I.2

Already in the second aphorism of the Yoga Sutra, Patanjali lays out for us what Yoga is. It literally translates as "The restraint of the modifications of the mind-stuff is Yoga." Yoga is a concentrated effort designed to bring the practitioner to stop identifying with the Ego, thereby eliminating one's false sense of self which is based on forms and identification with things. Through this elimination, the practitioner is better able to realize that he/she is not separate from the true Self (the formless consciousness beyond the Ego - that part of us that cannot be conceptually defined).

The Power of the Ego

In chapters 2/3 of "The New Earth" by Eckhart Tolle we learn about the ego. As he explains it, the ego is a false sense of self based on forms (identification with things). The egoic mind is completely conditioned by the past in: 1) Content: conditioned by your environment, surroundings, culture (jobs, etc...) 2) Structure: identification with things (the ego seeks things to identify with - no matter what it is as a form of self validation) Wanting is more important to the ego than having. Anytime you feel superior or inferior to others it is always the ego! Interestingly, Tolle explains that what we react to in another we strengthen in ourselves. In other words, the force of your reaction is a good indication to you of what you might need to work on in yourself. So how do we start to become more satisfied with who we are and what we have? By stopping the illusion of seeking fulfillment in the future and/or past. The thing that is of prime importance in our lives is the prese
