The Battle of Frequencies

In today’s hyper connected world, we’re constantly surrounded by electromagnetic fields (EMF) from cell phones, Wi-Fi and now 5G networks. While these invisible frequencies have become an integral part of modern life, there’s growing concern about their potential impact on our health. At the same time ancient practices like grounding which involve connecting with the Earth’s natural frequencies are being explored for their potential healing benefits. But how much of an impact do these frequencies have on our physical and mental health? Let’s explore the science behind it.

The Effects of EMF and 5G

As we move further into the 5G era, questions about the safety of electromagnetic radiation have been raised. Research has shown that long-term exposure to EMFs, including those from 5G may have harmful effects on the human body.

• What is EMF? Electromagnetic fields (EMFs) are created by electrically charged objects, like power lines, cell phones and Wi-Fi routers. They can be classified into two categories: non ionizing (low-frequency) and ionizing (high-frequency) radiation. EMFs from things like your phone or Wi-Fi are non ionizing, but some studies suggest that even these lower frequency fields can affect biological tissues over time.

• Health Concerns and Studies: Several studies have raised concerns about the potential links between EMF exposure and health issues such as headaches, sleep disturbances and even more serious conditions like cancer. A 2018 review published in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health found that long term exposure to EMFs could have a potential impact on human health. Including links to oxidative stress, DNA damage and increased risk of cancer. (Source: A. Panagopoulos et al., 2018).

  Another study by the National Toxicology Program (NTP) in the U.S. found that rats exposed to high levels of radiofrequency radiation (the kind emitted by cell phones) developed cancerous tumors in the brain and heart. While the direct translation of these findings to humans is still debated, the study certainly raised concerns about the long term effects of EMF exposure.

• 5G and Increased Exposure: With the advent of 5G technology we are now exposed to even higher frequencies than ever before. 5G is using a broader range of electromagnetic waves, including millimeter waves, which some researchers believe may penetrate the skin and interact with biological tissues more than previous generations of wireless technology. A 2020 study published in Environmental Research suggested that exposure to millimeter waves could increase oxidative stress and disrupt cellular function.

Peaceful Frequencies

• What is Grounding? Grounding, also known as “earthing,” is the practice of physically connecting to the Earth, either by walking barefoot on natural surfaces or using grounding devices that mimic the Earth’s electrical charge. The idea is that by doing so, we can sync our body’s electrical frequency with the natural frequency of the Earth, also known as the Schumann Resonance.

• The Earth’s Schumann Resonance: The Schumann Resonance is the frequency at which the Earth’s electromagnetic field naturally oscillates, approximately 7.83 Hz. Many believe that this frequency is deeply calming and may have positive effects on the human body. This low frequency wave has been suggested to help reducing stress, promoting deep sleep and improving overall health.

• Studies on Grounding: Several studies have explored the health benefits of grounding. A 2012 study published in the Journal of Environmental and Public Health found that grounding improved sleep, reduced pain and lowered stress by affecting the body’s cortisol levels. Another study in The Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine (2015) showed that grounding can help reduce inflammation, improve blood circulation, and lower blood pressure.

• Connecting to Nature: Even outside of formal grounding practices, spending time in nature is known to have positive effects on mental health. Research has shown that spending time outdoors, especially in green spaces reduces anxiety, boosts mood, and helps improve focus. Simply stepping outside and connecting with the natural environment can have profound benefits for your physical and mental wellbeing.

Conclusion: How to Protect Yourself and Embrace Peaceful Frequencies

In a world increasingly dominated by artificial electromagnetic frequencies, it’s important to take steps to reduce our exposure. Here are a few tips:

• Reduce EMF Exposure: Limit your time on devices like phones and laptops. Use wired connections when possible and consider using EMF shielding devices or cases to minimize exposure.

• Create EMF Free Zones: Set up “EMF free zones” in your home such as in the bedroom where you can limit exposure to Wi-Fi and other devices at night to improve sleep quality.

• Practice Grounding: Spend time outdoors and practice grounding by walking barefoot on natural surfaces like grass, sand or dirt. You can also use grounding mats or other Conscious Kiwi appliances to simulate the effect indoors.

• Use Natural Healing Frequencies: Listen to music or sound frequencies that promote healing, like 432 Hz, which is believed to be in harmony with the Earth’s natural frequencies.

Incorporating these practices can help you reduce your exposure to potentially harmful EMFs while embracing the peaceful and healing frequencies of nature.
