Guest guest Posted February 26, 2001 Report Share Posted February 26, 2001 , I know I understand more about many subtleties of our physical existence than the mainstream, but I sort of assumed everybody knew some of the basics. Silly me. Maybe I'm lucky because I watched the original " Ask Mr. Wizard " a lot as a kid. Pay note I am not expert in these areas, just an interested student. Someone else may choose to refine what I say. You asked why someone could go through a metal detector without triggering it. I replied it was a variance of their electromagnetic field. Then you asked if that is the same as what lights up light bulbs that people hold in their hands. My mind failed to see the segue from my first answer to your second question. I apologize. What lights up those funny bulbs is static charge. Electricity is energy. Electromagnetism is one of the 4 basic forces in physics, the other three being the strong force, the weak force and gravity. In my mind electricity and magnetism are two different things. I guess they are confusing to people who have never looked closely at either one of them. As I said before, the body is a capacitor in electronic terms. A capacitor stores up an electric charge and then releases it in a burst. This is why as you walk across some carpets dragging your feet, ungrounded, you pick up a positive static charge. Then, when you are grounded, (negative) there is a static spark and you release that charge. This is electricity, raw energy. This is what lights up the funny bulbs. Electricity and electromagnetism are separate, but electricity has an alectromagnetic field. The tuner in a TV is a variable capacitor. This is why reception on a TV with rabbit ears changes when you walk near it. Your body is not hard-wired to the TV, so your body's EM field alters the field surrounding the TV's antennae, moving it off-chanel & affecting reception. An EM field doesn't require contact for effect, as with a magnet & metal filings. This is ElectroMagnetism. The two ar connected, but different. I only went a few paragraphs into Rosie's web page, but the electromagnetism to which she is referring is the body's aura, or EM field. It normally surrounds the body at least an inch from our skin, but over areas where disease exists there is no aura. It sort of " funnels in " there. So, she is talking about using the observance of one's EM field (aura) as a diagnostic tool. I don't know of any single book that explains these things. Maybe How Things Work, by Macaulay would be a good beginning. I would love to find one that explained them across different paradigms, from the physical to the metaphysical, as I perceive them. jim wrote: > > > No, it isn't that which lights bulbs.

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2001 Report Share Posted February 26, 2001 Jim, I am going to have to study your answer, but I am terrible at understanding electricity, etc. I lasted a week in chemistry. My husband teaches electronics and I still don't understand it. I got a ham license by memorizing the test answers and I had to work hard to do that. I have a mangled brain. I had five kids living in the fast lane, and have gone through menopause at high speed with fluid problems, etc. Hasn't done much for my cognitive abilities. I am resourceful though and good at finding stuff on the Internet that other people have written. I'm just not good at the whole technical " fabric " . J.

Some say that it is important for health to stay grounded. I am wondering..... in winter here the whole house is filled with static electricity, especially noticeable: bedding, but also myself, my hair etc. I hate static, how can I ground myself or my bed?

Also, will this go away? ==>As your body gets stronger you won't react as badly, but it is better if you can avoid as much EMF exposure as possible, particularly when you sleep. Remove anything electrical away from your bed, and try to keep your bed away from electric outlets. Use a battery-run alarm clock, etc. Flourescent lights are bad because they actually pull vitamin A out of the body. You could buy good natural light bulbs for your flourescent fixture; I think Dr. Mercola sells one. There are also EMF protective devices you can buy; they used to be called diodes. I've done some search on them, but I'm not sure which are the best. If you have time you might try to look into it. Try searching with " EMF protection.

Guest guest Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 On another group I'm part of, a scientist noted that the radiation from the new compact fluorescent (CF) bulbs is most likely dangerous to the body over long periods of exposure. Next worse is regular fluorescent bulbs. Incandescent bulbs are not harmful. Best is sunlight, which is beneficial.

Guest guest Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 The person I'm referring to is Dr. DeMeo, who is continuing the research of Dr. Wilhelm Reich. I believe LED lights are innocuous, like incandescent bulbs. I think the article he wrote was in one of his quarterly newsletters. I don't think it made its way onto the internet. I'll see if I can find it later. Zack On Mon, 17 Mar 2008, kili94 wrote: > Zack, > Does he have an opinion on LED bulbs?

Guest guest Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 When my immune system was at its lowest ebb many years back ....I got a really bad electric shock which threw me clear across the living room (I was playing around with a big electric heater & forgot I had the cover off when I went to switch it off)... Ever since then I have had a problem with electromagnetic fields ....cooking over an electric hotplate can give me really bad brainfog if I am to close to the hotplate for too long ....mobile phones also scramble my brain something terrible & I dont use them .... This problem has faded over time as my immune system came back to normal but it hasn't faded as much as other symptoms I used to have ...I still avoid mobile phones....but happily the sensitivity does continue to fade slowly. Incidentally anybody who studied Physics/Electronics at college etc would have heard of Nikola Tesla ...regarded as something of a Genius for his discoveries & work which included electromagnetics ... He was also one of the first well known people to suffer from electromagnetic sensitivity ...apparently because of the huge electromagnetic fields he exposed himself to during some of his experiments back when electromagnetics knowledge was still in its infancy. Electromagnetic Fields Posted by: " Cathe Schmidt " cathe616@... cathe616 Sun Mar 16, 2008 2:37 pm (PDT) I have noticed that I am very sensitive to EMFs. I walk into any large store and can almost *feel* something in the air, buzzing around me. I sit at the computer and feel flushed and almost woozy from the exposure. The fluorescent light in my kitchen drives me nuts. So does talking on the cordless phone. (I'm not on the phone much so it makes a big impression when I do talk and feel hot and flushed afterward.) My question is this: for those of this group who are sensitive to EMFs, how much exposure do you allow yourself? Does anyone know of a safe exposure level/time? Also, will this go away?

Guest guest Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 Weird, before I knew I had candida and I was having so many problems I was having what I called brain zaps. I can't explain it any better than that. It felt like current zapped through my head. It does not hurt but I don't like it. I have not had but maybe one or two in the last month. I used to have several a night. Shelby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also had those zaps in my head when I had candida. It was really weird like an electrical jolt; it sorta sizzled. I'm glad I don't have that any more either!
