About Feng Shui / Electromagnetic Fields

Feng shui and electromagnetic field pollution (EMF)

As a feng shui practitioner, I advise my clients and students to find auspicious ways to arrange the furniture in their homes, and help them avoid the negative energy or “sha chi” such as the ones created by overhead beams and sharp corners. The ancient masters recognized that exposure to sha chi increases stress, weakens our immune system, and leaves us more susceptible to disease and restless sleep.

Today, one of the most threatening and dangerous forms of “Sha chi” is something the ancient masters didn’t mention or recognize. The harmful EMF(electromagnetic frequency)pollution that comes from power lines, home wiring, airport and military radar, substations, transformers, computers and appliances and all these can cause brain tumors, leukemia, birth defects, miscarriages, chronic fatigue, headaches, cataracts, heart problems, stress, nausea, chest pain, forgetfulness, cancer and other health problems.

Some people wonder after they had all their feng shui done that they suffer from headaches and fatigue completely forgetting that they have spent many hours exposed to EMF radiation from computers, fluorescent lights and air-conditioning units not to mention our cell phones which have high EMF directed to our brains.

Our health and wellbeing are being greatly affected by the massive quantities of electricity that bombard our bodies .We are electromagnetic beings, and our body uses brain waves and nerve impulses to communicate the production of new cells. Man-made electromagnetic field is stronger than our own having much higher frequency which interferes with our natural immune system.

• Microwave ovens are one of the worst in radiation emission. The radiation from microwaves and other appliances have been linked to various cancers, allergies, and Parkinson’s.
• Metal frame beds act as a conductor,generating the EMF’s around the bed and therefore affecting the way you sleep and your health as you are being surrounded and affected by high EMF”s

Simple ways to reduce exposure to man-made EMF’s

• Get rid of your microwave oven.
• Remove all electrical appliances from the bedroom.
• Use a battery alarm clock.
• Avoid electric blankets.
• Turn TVs off at the set, not by remote.
• Make sure you know what is on the other side of the wall from the head of your bed, or any other location where you spend a lot of time.
• Avoid fluorescent lighting of any kind.
• Keep cell phone use to an absolute minimum. Use a headset.
• Never use a laptop on your lap.
• Avoid wireless routers or at least turn them off at night.
• Replace wireless home phones with corded ones, or 900MHz analog.
• It has been found by NASA that certain plants are good at absorbing EMF’s

As a Feng shui practitioner I make sure during my Consultancy visit to check the EMF of the house/office using the electro magnetic field tester ,and measure the levels of radiation because the basic form and elements in your living or working space might be feng shui correct but unless the EMF issue is addressed and analyzed ,you are not safe.
