A friend who is a Feng Shui expert recently sent me this fabulous article by Kathleen Burke:
“A year ago, I was leading a normal, full, active life with no idea of the damage my mobile phone was doing to me. On July 1, 2022, I cancelled my mobile phone service (“cell phone” in the U.S) and turned off the wireless function on my computer as well as the modem. I made these changes at the request of my respected ally and colleague, Arthur Firstenberg. In order to work together I had to experience, first-hand, the shedding of wireless technology, and I had to be willing to “be the change”. It seemed extreme at the time, and as readers may recall, I even cried over the matter before making my final decision. But ten months into this experiment my life is different, and better.
When people ask me if I regret having given up my cell phone, my answer is unequivocally “No”. I don’t miss texting on a phone. I don’t miss GPS. I don’t miss reading news that some news aggregator selected for me. I don’t miss QR codes for this, that and everything else. I do not regret ridding myself of having a cell phone and I would not go back to having one.
I generally feel better… a lot better! Before the wireless purge I was waking up five-six times a night, walking to the bathroom only to urinate minimally and returning to bed; sometimes falling back to sleep, sometimes not. In the weaning off process, I began sleeping better and I now sleep deeply every night and wake up maybe once a night. I also had had chronic stomach aches in the early morning for ten years. Doctors ruled out acid reflux, ulcers, etc. The stomach aches are now gone, entirely. I had frequent nightmares, and I often had headaches upon waking. Those are all gone as well. I wake up happy now instead of lethargic and depressed. Who knew?
My energy level changed noticeably after giving up my phone…” READ MORE
I 100% encourage you to read this entire article – to find out not only what happens to her own health, sleep patterns, energy etc. But also to learn how EMR affected her pets and her neighbour’s pets!
I have been blogging about WiFi and cellphone radiation dangers for over a decade now (click that link to read more of my posts), and Kathleen’s article spurred me to publish a round-up of exactly how animals and plants are damaged by human-generated EMR (electromagnetic radiation).
Those of us who are working to restore ecosystems and preserve biological diversity, really need to understand this piece of the bigger picture.
When you reduce or eliminate radiation in your home, you will not only benefit your own health, but you’ll be greatly helping your own pets and the animals in your neighborhood too!
I quite agree,
I only use texting or landline
Thanks.

Hi Alice, thank you for sharing your perspective. If you have any questions or concerns, we’re always here to help!
Texting still uses the same signals. Land line would be better if it is a wired line and not a 2.4ghz wireless phone. Unless you live off grid where not even radio stations or cell towers reach you will still be subject to quite a lot of contact with it. Probably best not to put too much struggle mentally into worrying about it as that’s probably more stressful than just getting hit with it.
I get the general idea but there are so many other sources of microwave signals of different frequencies that are unavoidable. The neighbors wifi, cell towers etc. I have no doubt there is some effect but unless you are completely off the grid there’s little sense in trying to isolate from it. I’d honestly say any feeling different is more from a placebo effect. Not saying I don’t love your content but unless you have complete isolation our bodies are getting blasted from it regardless.
Yes mostly true, BUT we can usually reduce proximity and intensity; which can then certainly make a difference to our health.
You would need an EMR meter to be able to measure and assess your home properly – as there are many factors that can affect the total picture.
People who have electrohypersensitivity or wish to avoid EMR can do a number of things to EMR-shield their home. Kind of like creating a Faraday cage. Former Silicon Valley engineer, Jeromy Johnson, has a lot of resources on his site: EMFanalysis.com
Deleting comments huh. For shame. The fact is that turning off a cell phone and wifi is only a tiny drop in the bucket as to what is constantly being pushed thru us and that it’s probably more of being off the phone leading to a placebo effect being produced. I spend less time on my phone since a lifestyle change and look my anxiety is down. Doesn’t mean it’s from RF signals or the tons of other frequencies out there.
My UC cleared up and went away after I made mental health changes. One of which was breaking a phone addiction. It made a world of difference. This is probably something that is more plausible that the writer experienced.
Censoring opinions on a blog article makes me wonder what else is being cherry picked. Not a good look and a chance for open discussion or defending your blog post.
Hi Josh, no censoring unless someone is super obnoxious and swearing. It just takes us a while to approve comments, which we have to do manually due to spam etc.
Anyway you have a very good point! You’d actually have to run a controlled trial to test for that. Although, getting off your phone (breaking an addiction) would automatically greatly reduce close-range intense exposure anyway. So that would be extremely hard to test.
Guess we’re back to listening to your gut and doing your research!
