Good Riddance to Bad Vibes
Escaping Electromagnetic Exposure by Priscilla Goudreau-Santos

electromagnetic fi elds within us regulate how our bodies work. Plus, we continually encounter many outside energy fi elds from Wi-Fi, cell phones and towers, power lines, microwave ovens, computers, TVs, security devices and radar. A growing number of experts see

these surrounding frequencies as an increasing danger to our well-being. Applying modalities like acupuncture, Reiki, Touch for Health and Eden Energy Medicine can help us maintain a healthy energy balance internally. They work to harmonize the body to protect against stress, trauma and associated illness. Phyllis Traver, owner of Safe & Sound Home, in Boston, is certifi ed by the International Institute of Building- Biology & Ecology to detect, measure
and counter in-home electromagnetic activity. “The institute usually fi nds that when a patient doesn’t respond to treatment by an energy healer, it’s because of the environment. I try to neutralize its effect to help the body regulate properly,” Traver says. While protection in highly-occupied family areas is important, providing protection in bedrooms is especially
vital, due to the amount of time we spend there for rest and restoration. Traver’s diagnoses sometimes suggest remediation measures that involve an electrician grounding currents and adding selective shielding materials to block frequencies fl owing from electronic devices. “Magnetic fi elds from outside the house are hard to control, but 98 percent of what I fi nd can be fi xed,” she advises. When Terry Mollner, 69, was having trouble sleeping, he contacted Traver, who receives client referrals from

energy healers. “The conclusions were stunning,” Mollner says. “The detector’s measurements went off the charts in the bedroom. It wasn’t the fl at screen TV at the foot of my bed, but how the room’s wiring was done. The electrician installed a relay so I can switch off the power on that side of the house at night. Now, I sleep six or seven hours,” which he characterizes as “a profound change.” He also suggests turning off and moving cell phones away from beds. Mollner then hardwired the computers in his home, eliminated Wi-Fi and rearranged the electronic equipment in his home offi ce. Kim Cook, an energy practitioner in Mission Viejo, California, specializes in Eden Energy Medicine and Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT). Cook decided not to buy a house she was initially interested in because it was in a hot spot. When Cook used her meter to chart frequencies at home, it also prompted her to move her bedroom clock radio to a different bureau. “It’s no longer sitting right at our heads,” she notes. Plus, “I don’t put my cell phone on my body and it bothers me that my son puts his in his pocket.” An overarching observation from
Cook’s professional practice is that increasing numbers of people in pain are interested in energy medicine because they’re so frustrated with Western medicine. She observes, “Pain is blocked energy, and people are learning how to unblock it naturally.” The World Health Organization (WHO) launched the International EMF Project in 1996 because of rising public health concerns due to the surge in EMF sources. After reviewing extensive research and thousands of articles, the organization can’t confi rm—or deny— the existence of health consequences from exposure to low-level EMFs. But in 2011, the WHO International
Agency for Research on Cancer classifi ed the electromagnetic radiation from cell phones as possibly carcinogenic to humans, based on increased risk for glioma, a malignant brain cancer. Lloyd Morgan, a senior researcher with the nonprofi t Environmental Health Trust and lead author of the internationally endorsed report, Cellphones and Brain Tumors, goes further, unequivocally
