For those not familiar with the abbreviations in the title:
- EMF = Electromagnetic Field radiation such as those emitted from wireless communication equipment/devices;
- 5G = Fifth Generation cell phone technology
You may have heard about the dangers of 5G wireless technology because it penetrates deeper and goes farther than any of the previous generations. This is especially true for the 600-megahertz band that’s been opened up for T-Mobile’s 5G network, according to an article on Mercola’s website (1).
We are all exposed to EMFs, even if we don’t have/use cell phones. It is everywhere. However, the new 5G wireless technology has increased the risk from EMFs significantly.
What should you tackle first, to protect you, your home, your family and your pets from the dangers of EMFs? Read on…
Priorities for shielding EMFs in your home
The following list (from Mercola’s article (1)) is in order of priority, with the first (most important) priority listed first.
#1: Start with your bedrooms
It’s important to shield the rooms in your home from these EMFs. The article recommends starting with your bedroom(s), as the EMFs interfere with quality and benefits of sleep. “Sleeping in an EMF-free environment is crucial, as this is when your body needs to be in a parasympathetic state, detoxing, repairing and rejuvenating itself.” (1)
#2: Area(s) in which you eat
Shielding the “area in which you eat is the second priority, as your body needs to be in a parasympathetic (relaxed) state in order for your digestion to function properly.” (1)
#3: Your sauna (if you have one)
If you use a sauna for detoxification, make “sure your sauna has low or no EMF, both magnetic fields and electric fields.” This “is an important consideration, as it will impact your ability to detox.”
How do you shield EMFs?
There are many ways to shield yourself and your family in your home. Here are a few articles to check out:
