Space weather and health

[Jhanananda]

This is day 10 sleeping well through the night inside a grounded EMF shield (Faraday cage) and awaking rested and pain-free. Yesterday there was no pain at all, all day long, and I have been walking erect for days, and not stooped over as I have for a few years now.
 
Additionally, the nearby forest fire is still burning out of control, and causing everyone here in Sedona respiratory problems.  Normally I would have burning eyes, and asthma from the smoke, but the smoke has not bothering me at all.

Every morning I light a small fire to heat water to make a hot morning drink. Typically I burn the day's paper trash, and a handful of wood. Yesterday, while lighting the small morning fire, I noticed that the used kleenex pile had dwindled so much that I had to add newspaper to the fire to get it going.  I have had chronic Rhinitis and conjunctivitis since I was a teenager.  I have not had to use eye drops for 10 days, and now it also appears that the Rhinitis has ended as well.

It seems that sleeping about 8 hours a day in a Faraday cage has improved my over-all health.  It would be interesting to hear from others who are finding similar results.

I am now looking into ways to be shielded and grounded throughout the day.  Here are some products that could help:

My monthly disability check was posted to my account this morning, and finding shielding and ground improved my health dramatically, I ordered a set of conductive garments, below.  As long as I wear the shoes, coveralls and hat, then I will be shielded and grounded all day.

It has now been 2 weeks sleeping well through the night inside a grounded EMF shield (Faraday cage) and awaking rested and pain-free. Saturday I processed 50 gallons of my DIY diesel fuel, which meant I had to move about 350lbs (158KG).  I have not been able to do that in over a year; however, my back ached a little the next morning.
 
Additionally, the nearby forest fire is still burning out of control, and causing everyone here in Sedona respiratory problems.  Normally I would have burning eyes, and asthma from the smoke, but the smoke has not bothering me at all.

Other interesting improvements in my health observed are: no acne, no sinusitis, no irritated eyes, no chronic fatigue.

I have only had apricot ale once in the 2 weeks, and I just ran out of cherry soft gels, so I plan not to take any more prunus species or any other plant that contains Anthocyanin to see if just a grounded Faraday cage is enough to maintain my recently improved health level.

Thank-you, Michel, for your support.  It occurred to me, Michel, that you could easily build a Faraday cage that also attenuates acoustic vibrations for use in meditation with 5 sheets of conductive corrugated plastic (Coroplast) that are taped together with 3M 3311 Aluminum Foil Tape - 2" x 50 yards.  4 sheets of Coroplast could be taped together into a 4'x4'x8' rectangular tube, and one sheet cut in half to function as hinged doors front and back, which would be taped only on top to function as a flap that allows the exchange of air, then you could build a bed inside of the inclosure for sleeping and sitting up meditation practice.  You would need to apply Conductive Fabric Tape over one place over each edge, because aluminum tape is only conductive on its outer surface.  Then you would apply an Electrode Pad to one surface, then run a wire from the Electrode Pad to a grounded power outlet.

Sorry, Jhananda. I somehow overlooked this post. Thank you for all the info you've provided for those of us who are interested in the health effects of electromagnetic radiation. I myself only have inflammation or arthritis in some of my fingers. Not very painful, but it prevents me from playing the guitar. I also have very mild hay fever. I think there are a wide range of health benefits to keeping oneself grounded as much as possible throughout the day, as you've discovered yourself. My family would surely think I'm going manic again if they were to see me building a Faraday cage. They are very close minded, so there is no way that I could convince them that a cage would be beneficial to my health. It would be beyond my physical abilities to build it myself, although I'm good with building things. So it would be expensive. I am concerned about the high voltage hydro lines that run close to where I live. They're about 150 yards away.

I sit at my computer 9 hours a day. How would you go about 'earthing' one who sits at a computer?

From what I have learned in the last year is human made EMF is tiny compared to solar EMF sources.  However, the high power lines near your home might be an issue.  To me the simplest solution, if you can afford it, is to purchase conductive shoes, coveralls and hat.

I am beginning to consider that solar originating EMF does not just effect arthritics, but could effect the entire organism of all creatures, not just humans. Thus, your psychoses might very well have been due to solar originating EMF.  Do you have dates for your psychotic events?

Today there is an R1 Radio Blackout predicted by Space Weather Now; however, I slept well within my grounded Faraday cage, and woke up without joint pain. Nonetheless, at about 6AM this morning my back went out bad, so sleeping in a grounded Faraday cage is not a panacea, but then I did not expect it would be. 

Arguably I had over-done lifting 10 5-gallon containers of fuel several times from Friday through the weekend, while acquiring and processing waste oil into fuel. However, the R1 Radio Blackout level solar storm activity might be the cause.

Additionally I ran out of cherry soft gels, so  Anthocyanins might be an essential companion to the grounded Faraday cage treatment plan.

I just found this list of major CMEs for the 155 years

Impacts of Solar Weather
September 1859
Aurora bright enough to read by seen extremely far south (Cuba). Telegraph systems ran without being powered. Some caught on far and operators were electrocuted. Considered to be the largest solar storm on record (estimates for an event of this magnitude today are up to $2 trillion).

May 1921
Entire New York Central Rail switching system knocked out. Telegraph and telephone disruptions worldwide.

March 1989
Huge magnetic storm caused the Quebec power grid to fail in 90 seconds leaving millions without power for up to 9 hours (total cost not just to the Quebec power grid estimated at over $2 billion).

October/November 2003
Major loss of GPS accuracy with errors over 50 meters, transformer failures in South Africa, major HF radio blackouts, 30 satellite anomalies including one satellite loss (many billions of $s).

Interesting theory that is worth investigating.

Maybe there is a correlation between EMF and the occurrence of psychotic states. The most significant manic episodes that were particularly strong in my case history occurred in late September 1979; the end of June 1982; and in early December 2001. These episodes typically lasted  for three months or so. I can't give you specific dates.

[Jhanananda]

Michel, all of your manic episodes seem to correlate with the solar max periods.  See Solar cycle

Your right, Jhananda. Although it could be coincidental. Of course we would need a much broader set of data.

Yes, a larger data set is in order; however, your data supports the premise.

Last week I received an aluminum hard hat, which I plan to use for shielding my head.  I modified it so with a bare copper wire that would be in contact with my skin and hair.


Today I also grounded 1 pair of my shoes.

Today I wore the whole shielded and grounded Faraday cage outfit.

It seems like my back is improving rapidly.  I do not need a cane any more, but I still have some stiffness and pain when getting up from a chair.

[Jhanananda]

This morning is the first morning in 5 days that I have gotten up to find my back better again, which is a bit of a record for how bad it had gotten on Monday. Perhaps wearing the conductive clothing yesterday is why my back suddenly got better this morning. 

More conductive materials research:
Shielding conductive textile fabrics
Electrically conductive silicones
Conductive adhesives and sealants

EMI Schielded Windows
Shielded Tent
EMC Electrically conductive paints
Shielding of Magnetic fields
Shielding Composite
ArgenMesh Conductive/Shielding Silver Fabric $18.99/linear foot + $4.75 shipping.  I am not sure how wide this is, but one comment thought it was 58" wide.  If it is, then I would buy a minimum of 5 feet to end up with a 5'x5' sheet that one could role up in for bedding.  Snaps to mate with the grounding strap system, to a grounded outlet seems to be the best way to make this fabric work.
BioKnit Conductive Fabric Sock $50
BioKnit Conductive Fabric Glove $44.10
Garmetrode, Electrode Sock Universal Size - 1 ea $17.95

I needed a conductive sock to make the connection from my conductive shoes to my body so that my conductive garments are all grounded.  I ordered these socks, as they were the lowest priced conductive socks I could find.
HI-DOW INTERNATIONAL ACUSOCKS CONDUCTIVE THERAPEUTIC SOCKS (PAIR) $29.95
Kit contains:

    2 Acusocks for arthritis and foot pain relief
    2 Extra large self-adhesive reusable pads

A massive formation on the sun made of super-hot magnetic plasma erupted this week in an explosive solar storm captured on video by NASA spacecraft.

The huge plasma tendril, known as a solar filament, erupted on Wednesday (June 4), blowing part of itself out into space in what astronomers call a coronal mass ejection, or CME. NASA's powerful Solar Dynamics Observatory recorded video of the solar filament eruption while the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory tracked the subsequent CME.

I have to wounder why they called it "Earthing?"  Is it because if they called it "grounding" the practice would seem to common place? 

Also, my findings show it is not just grounding, nor is it just shielding, but both.  And both grounding and shielding seem to be about 4 to 10 times as effective than just one or the other.  However, it is good to know that others support my findings.

My back was a little tender yesterday, but I was able to work on my swamp cooler and get it running by the end of the day, which was needed because it has been in the 90s F (30s C) here all week. I awoke from good sleep all night and pain-free. Space weather has reported an R1 Radio Blackout level in the past 24 hrs.

This morning I completed the electrical connection between my body and the grounding wire that I attached to the bottom of my shoe, so that I am now fully grounded and shielded all day.  I found that the grounding strap with the velcro was too small to wrap around my ankle, but the grounding strap with the elastic band would stretch enough to get it around my foot and created a positive contact with my skin at my ankle.

I then put a sock on over the strap and wrapped the wire coil around my ankle just to keep from tripping over it when I walk.
