I'm pretty excited about this blog post to be honest.
I am on The Cowden Support programme from NutraMedix so whenever I have a problem I will email their Ireland office and if I need to I can call their main office in America and speak with the main guy there. I called him this week and we had another great chat about so many different things. We talked about new research all over the world and so many different things I can be working on...
Geopathic & Electromagnetic Stress
I have known about Geopathic and Electromagnetic Stress for about two years now but I was always quite sceptical about it.
Geopathic Stress (GS) comes from any phone masts, underwater pipes, train lines and many other things (read more here - Geopathic Stress).
Electromagnetic Stress is common for all of us because it comes from wifi, mobile phones, microwaves, TV, laptop, computer - you get the picture. Wifi is the big one and so we were advised to turn it off at night (something I strongly suggest).
Both of these can drastically effect our health and can even contribute to a whole host of illnesses, M.E, cancer, asthma, depression, stress, allergies, so many different things. If you sleep, work or spend alot of time in a place which is under GS then obviously you are at greatest risk.
Here's my story - We have lived in our house for 10 years, it was a brand new built estate of 40 houses. I am in no doubt (and have said it for years) it is no coincidence I have been ill for... 10 years. Since living here we have all had our periods of illness, alot of our neighbours have also suffered these past 10 years. Friends have commented to me they always feel tired in this house. I have never felt well living here, I always feel better away from this house. So when I found this explanation it was an hallelujah moment! I knew I was right. We have an intercity train line at the bottom of our garden. Say no more.
Solution? We can't wrap ourselves in cotton wool. I would love to but I can't just up and move house. My family are also not overly excited about the idea of getting rid of the wifi.
In order to help our bodies with these problems we need to 'ground ourselves' and protect our bodies. I have looked at grounding sheets, you put it on your bed so that while you sleep you are protected from Geopathic Stress. However, they are very expensive and I couldn't justify it. I thought is it really going to make a difference?
Anyway, speaking to NutraMedix the guy brought it up and asked me if I have looked into it. He strongly suggested I had second thoughts and purchased a grounding sheet. He claimed that for every minute you are 'grounding' whilst you are asleep is the equivalent to taking a handful of antioxidants.
I have also read that we will never be fully healed until we address this issue. So I thought why not, I felt it was the right thing to do. I ordered a grounding sheet (it's my early christmas presents from my parents) - health comes first. www.groundology.co.uk/products
I also got a G-Oyster, a small disc shaped device that again, shields you from these stresses. You carry it all day in your pocket or your bag, keep it next to your bed or next to your laptop while you work. It is rapidly becoming my new best friend. I will let you all know how I get on.
Amantilla
He also suggested another product to add to my protocol, another herbal addition to help with stress called Amantilla. I have alot of emotional stress in my life at the moment which can deeply impact our immune systems and all our body. So any extra help I am grateful for.
I had a lecture at the weekend all about herbs and the powerful healing properties they hold it is so fascinating! I hope to get some books and do some further research on herbs. They have definitely changed my life anyway.
My personal view is recovery is like a sieve, for most people it won't be one single thing to heal us, it will be a mixture of all different things. It's also individual for every single person, you will never meet another person who is recovered by the exact same things you did. But if protecting ourselves from GS plugs one of the sieve holes we are abit closer to healing.
I am hoping these small changes will show big differences in my recovery. Fingers crossed.
Don't take my word for it, have a browse on the internet and see what you find. There are some amazing books out there on this subject. I hope you all find it as interesting as I do.
