EMF Validation – Better Late Than Never

emax1 Comment

As I write in Riding the Waves: Diagnosing Treating and Living with EMF Sensitivity shortly after relocating to the SF Bay Area in 2000 I began experiencing debilitating mysterious life-altering symptoms that turned out to be the result of my sensitivity to ultra-low and very low EM frequencies.  Some of the worst symptoms were the result of my sensitivity to the EM frequencies released by geologic fault lines in the hours and days before an earthquake.

The book contains a copy of the journal I kept documenting my ability to predict earthquakes.

I consistently and successfully predicted the time of day, day of the week, size in magnitude and which fault line was going to pop based on how severe the physical symptoms – which included nausea, headaches, and dizziness – were.

I was able to predict quakes on fault lines up to 15 miles away days before the quake happened within .1 on the richter scale and within minutes of the event.

The book also contains details of how I validated my sensitivity to fault lines.  I explain that while information from the USGS was able to confirm the location of majority of the fault lines I identified in a double blind test, there were fault lines I ID’d that USGS had no record of – until there was a quake.

They published in the paper the quake happened on a “previously unknown fault.”

Once I realized it was the ultra-low and very low EMs coming from geologic fault lines making me so sick I told Aaron there was a fault line running down our street.

I could feel it.

USGS had no record of a fault where I insisted it was.  

I Knew It!

This morning I saw an article in SF Chronicle detailing the discovery of a previously unknown fault line.  The map shows the fault runs down the street we lived on.

Exactly where I said it was.

We visited the Bay Area the summer of 24.  Though the trip was for pleasure it was an opportunity to see if I was sickened in locales that used to cause me grief.

Such as the Railroad Museum in Sacramento.

We visited our old neighborhood where I walked up the street to see if I could still feel the fault and whether it would make me ill.

Was I truly cured of my sensitivity?

As I explain in my interview with Lloyd Burrell of Electricsense I’m no longer sickened by these frequencies even as I remain aware of them.

I felt the fault line with every step I took.

Ice Cream Man: We Need to Tell our Stories

emax2 Comments

I volunteer to help kids with literacy.  I showed up on a recent day and was asked if I’d be willing to work with a special needs child because the specialist had to call out.  Happy to do so I soon found myself in a secluded part of a hallway listening to a little boy read about a tour of an ice cream factory.

The nature of the program means the volunteers and students find places to sit together which may be in an overcrowded room with a cacophany of voices or in a hall where students changing classes walk by.

At one point he looked at me and asked “Why so many screams?”

This was after watching him struggle with the fact he was trying to form the thought.  Telling him to take his time seemed to help him relax and articulate what was on his mind.

Why So Many Screams?

I immediately picked up his concern over the word scream but also knew he lacked context.  I quickly explained it was a childhood rhyme.

I scream you scream we all scream for ice cream.

I suspected my explanation didn’t fly because he wasn’t familiar with the rhyme so I quickly explained it was something kids would call out when chasing the ice cream man.  This necessitated I explain what the ice cream man was.

And why kids would be chasing him.

I admit – I have not seen or heard an ice cream man in all the years I’ve lived in this region of the country but that didn’t stop me from telling this sweet boy

“I’m old.  When I was little in Michigan my friends and me would chase the ice cream man – you could hear him coming by the music in his truck – yelling “I scream you scream we all scream for ice cream.”

I watched him think over the honest explanation then slowly nod.  And then he smiled.

A beautiful smile that lit up his features.

He said “I can’t wait to tell my mom.”

I don’t know if his mom is a translplant from another part of the country – maybe a place where she grew up hearing the telltale sound of an ice cream truck coming in her direction – but it reinforces my belief that we need to share stories with our kids

and grandkids …

I saw first hand how the lack of knowledge confused and alarmed.

We need to tell our stories

To share wisdom and give context.

And to reassure.

Manifesting 101: Wouldn’t it Be Cool?

emaxLeave a comment

Happy New Year readers and visitors!  I hope 2025 brings joy and wonder.  

And good health!

Given many of us are thinking of what we want – or don’t – for the coming year I thought I’d share a holiday manifesting story.

On Christmas Eve I received a gift that included a hand-written note providing special information about each piece that was part of the gift.  Unfortunately in my haste to clean up wrapping paper the note was lost.  When I couldn’t find it I assumed it was accidentally thrown away.

I felt very bad as the gift giver made a point to tell me the note provided unique details about each piece.

Over the next days as I took my morning walk I considered the lost paper with no small regret.

I felt guilty I hadn’t slowed down to look at the paper when the gift giver mentioned it.

I did something else.  I visualized the paper in my mind and thought how cool it would be if it somehow turned up somewhere.  

As in maybe it didn’t get thrown out with the trash!

When I returned from my walks I would check various places thinking it might have wound up under a piece of furniture or in some other out of the way place.

No luck.

I continued to visualize the paper while I walked and casually thought how cool it would be if it turned up.

Randomly.  

I’d like to point out I did not consider what I was doing a manifestation attempt.

It wasn’t done with intent.

A few days ago I decided instead of taking down the Christmas tree I would go to the garage and break down boxes.

Which Aaron and I would take to the recycle center later this week.  

Normally I do this type of activity with Aaron but he was on a work call so I waded into the cardboard on my own.

Along with bubble wrap and styrofoam peanuts.

I was about 2/3 through sorting recycle from trash – organizing it for further disposal when I reached into a small box and pulled out the mesh bag that had held the gift.  Setting it aside – it too had gone missing – I thought “Wouldn’t it be cool if I found that paper in some box?”  

Drum Roll

I reached into the same box seconds later and withdrew the paper I thought lost!

What makes this pretty cool from the Manifesting 101 side

  • Though I was unhappy about losing the paper I didn’t do the visualization with the intent to find it.

It was one of a number of thoughts that went through my mind while walking on a chilly morning.

  • The Wouldn’t it be Cool? was not a heart-rending level of emotion tied to it all.

In spite of my disappointment at losing the paper.

  • Something told me to break down the cardboard boxes rather than take down the Christmas tree in spite of knowing I’d be doing it myself.

It’s an activity Aaron and I enjoy doing together.

  • If Aaron had been helping me chances are the paper would have been tossed into a recycle bag and lost for good.

I didn’t tell anyone I’d lost the paper so Aaron wouldn’t have known to keep an eye out for it.

Wouldn’t It Be Nice?

I want to circle back to what I feel is an important point when it comes to manifesting.

Pun intended.

The concept of releasing/letting go of attachment to an outcome is considered an important step in manifesting.  It’s also one of the steps I’ve had the biggest challenge with.

How the heck can you not feel emotion about something you want?

Some part of me must have been working in the background over the years to give me the key to this step because I’ve come to see that whenever I’ve manifested something it went with the following

Wouldn’t It Be Cool?

Or Wouldn’t It Be Nice?

I don’t know if this will work for others but for me when I feel that phrase?  The emotion attached is pretty low level.

Caveat

This isn’t to say it means I don’t care if I get it or not or that I’m not prepared to accept what goes along with having it.  It’s just that I recognize my life won’t be ruined if it doesn’t happen.

I had a plan B – to talk with the individual who designed the piece so I could get the information.

Knowing this, I can frame future efforts in such a way as to lower emotional noise that would interfere with its coming to be.

Vibrations: A Fun and Interesting Side of EMFs

emax1 Comment

While earning my doctorate in holistic healing I took a class in vibrational healing.

Textbook was written by an MD on staff at Wayne State University Medical School.

I’ll admit I was a bit skeptical of some of the conclusions.

As well as some of the remedies suggested.**

I withheld judgment and passed the class with an A.  

How ironic that not long after I found myself turning to the remedies which include Bach Flower Remedies to treat mysterious symptoms that were putting a serious kink in my life.

At this point I didn’t know what EMF Sensitivity was.

Fast forward a couple of decades and I find myself observing a fun side of the science of vibrations.

Quick break to tell folks about one of my favorite videos relating to vibrational frequencies.

Enter the Dragon

Our beardie is a pre-Covid buy but one who came just in the nick of time.  

His name is Gyro

As I was the resident expert on reptiles I found myself happily front and center plucking him up and keeping an eye on him when it was time to clean the tank.

We had a Caymen alligator and a lizard when I was a  kid – later had chameleons regular guests – much to the chagrin of my cat – in our home in Florida.

While my memories of these family pets from childhood are generally positive I wasn’t too thrilled when a different reptile paid a visit to my room in Florida one night.

I woke up because my cat was at the end of my bed playing with what turned out to be a snake.  Fortunately it was a Garter and a small one at that.

Bearded Dragons have incredible personality.  

  • Gyro is drawn to deep voices 

He will turn his head and get close to the glass nearest the direction the voice is coming from.

  • Gyro loves to dance to 80s tunes preferring synth bands such as The Cars.

He’s also a huge fan of Queen.

  • Gyro is startled by the color black

When I walk by the tank wearing a black sweater or t-shirt etc he will jump and eye the nearest exit.

  • Gyro apparently knows who’s boss

If another family member tries to pick him up he struggles.  Me?  He freezes and doesn’t move.

I believe it stems from the vibrational frequency of my voice.  

Though I generally talk to him very gently/assuringly and in low volume when I’m about to pluck him up there was a time the tone was not so sweet.

I came down one morning to find the front glass not secured and Gyro eyeing the exit.  Panicked at the thought of having to chase a lizard when there is a cat in the house I yelled “Gyro NO!”  He seemed to understand the tone and froze, remaining that way as I nudged him back into the tank he was half out of and shut  and secured the glass.

Note:  I later considered that while I was repeatedly shouting “NO!” all the peeps in my house slept through the chaos.

One said “Oh I heard you yelling…”

Gee thanks for the concern…

From that day forward Gyro reacts based on the volume/tone of my voice.

I’ve not had to shout at him since.

I generally get down to eye level and talk to him in a low tone I believe sends the message all is well.

I love how he cocks his head as if he’s trying to figure out what I’m saying.

I figure he uses the vibrations -voice tone/volume – as a way to gauge whether or not he needs to hide in the corner.

Just now I cleared my throat and he moved to the corner after which I assured him from across the room “It’s okay Gyro.”

As for kitty and Gyro?  They’ve come to accept each other as evidenced by the fact many times I will come to see Nigel staring up at Gyro and he paying complete attention to the kitty – without fear.

They’ll sit like that for 30 minutes or more as if having some silent battle of Mother Nature wits.

Life as an adventure is the best.

** I was never skeptical of Bach Flower Essences as a healing modality. It was one of the first modalities the British ENT Surgeon I apprenticed with taught me.

What’s a Female to Do? Menopause and EMF Sensitivity

emaxLeave a comment

Not long ago I had a conversation with a doctor who – after learning of my expertise in EMF Sensitivity – asked whether I thought the onset of menopause resulted in EMF Sensitivity.  

She’d observed an overlap of certain symptoms.  

I told her I didn’t think so but agreed to do a bit of digging so I could give a more comprehensive answer.

I found the symptom overlap interesting.

Which is why in Riding the Waves: Diagnosing Treating and Living with EMF Sensitivity I stress the importance of keeping a journal.

Adding complexity is the fact women are more likely to identify as EMF Sensitive than men.

Though I’ve worked with a number of males who’ve had/have the condition.  

My Conclusion?

Menopause itself does not cause EMF Sensitivity but there is a correlation.

As opposed to causation.

To illustrate I will discuss a different health correlation.

One I discussed on my recent Life After EMF Sensitivity interview with Lloyd Burrell.

I explained I discovered a cure for pressure drop migraines.

Something I’d been suffering from for over 35 years.

They are the result of the nature of Atmospheric EMFs.

Part of GATE – the 4 horsemen of EMF Sensitivity – which I also discussed with Lloyd.**

I explained that patients who suffer migraines are often deficient in Vitamin D though people deficient in Vitamin D don’t necessarily suffer migraines.

Correlation not Causation.

As I write in the books that document finding the root cause and ultimately curing my EMF Sensitivity, adrenals compromised by factors such as heavy metal toxicity is ultimately at fault but here’s the key difference. The adrenals are part of the endocrine system – a system responsible for producing hundreds upon hundreds of hormones not to mention enzymes – including digestive enzymes needed to digest absorb and metabolize nutrients necessary for making the hormones.

Thus the nature of the cure I discovered.

The process of menopause involves fluctuating and the shifting of hormones.  The inability of the adrenals to make crucial hormones contributes directly to EMF Sensitivity but… we’re not talking sex hormones like those involved in the process of menopause.

It’s simply that an overburdened hormone factory – the adrenals – not to mention the endocrine system as a whole – can lead to this condition.

Correlation not causation.

What’s a [female] body to do?

Ideally? Rebuild nutritional support so the adrenals and other glands can produce the enzymes and hormones that enable health and well-being.

All detailed in my books on curing EMF Sensitivity.

Be well!

** Interview will be forthcoming in not-too-distant future.

EMF Medical Research Changing Lives

emaxLeave a comment

During my interview with Lloyd Burrell of Electricsense we discussed – among other things – the 4 types of EMFs.

GATE.

Lloyd brilliantly summed up the takeaway which is that the EMF load as a combined whole can wreak havoc with our health.  Needless to say when we are able to offload one or more sources of GATE the outcome can be and often is improved health and well-being.

Lloyd articulated my journey with EMF Sensitivity as it relates to GATE.

Peeling an Onion.

I explained that as I tackled the most impactful of the EM frequencies wreaking havoc in my life I was made aware of the impact of others.  

The noise of the combined whole made it so I wasn’t able to see there were more than Geologic and Technologic EM frequencies causing trouble.

Lloyd described it as peeling an onion which is apt as one by one I chipped away until I had them all under control.

Only took a few decades a lot of work and a lot of hours during which I thought I was going crazy. But who’s counting?

During the interview I offer insight into remedies and provide context to each of the GATEs as well as the combined whole.

Research to Tackle a Layer

Along my EMF journey I was fortunate enough to cross paths with a medical researcher whose EM work is definitely benefitting health.

In humans and animals.

He and his team have come up with a product put through trials that speeds healing and improves health by blocking EM frequencies.

For more information on the work of Dr. Don Nixdorf and his team visit Farabloc.

Life After EMF Sensitivity

emax2 Comments

I am excited to share I had a powerful successful interview with Lloyd Burell of ElectricSense this morning.  

The subject of the interview is Life After EMF Sensitivity.

As anxious as I am for the information to get out there it will be a bit – though not too long.

I will provide updates as relevant.

During the zoom interview I share a lot of information including remedies discovered while looking for a solutions to a debilitating condition caused by sensitivity to EMFs.

As documented in Riding the Waves: Diagnosing Treating and Living with EMF Sensitivity.

 I discuss how and a bit of why the remedies work but to really understand the context – which will help you decide whether or not they are a valid consideration for you – you will want to read the books found at my site under the World of EMF.

Be well
