12 Ways to Minimize Your Family's Exposure to EMFs
March 15, 2021

Scientists are beginning to uncover the potential dangers and long-term health effects of low levels of Electromagnetic Radiation emitted from these electronic devices. EMFs include Extremely Low Frequency (ELF) radiation as well as Radio Frequency (RF) radiation, which includes WiFi and Bluetooth.
In modern day living, we are surrounded by man-made electromagnetic frequencies which penetrate our bodies continually. These exposures can interfere with the electromagnetic systems in our bodies. The increased load of exposure has been linked to many health effects.
Children are more at risk than adults because their brain and nervous system are still developing, they have thinner skulls, and their organs are not fully developed. The fetuses of pregnant women are especially vulnerable to EMFs.
Here are 12 simple ways to minimize exposure to EMFs:
- Turn off cell phones and tablets or put on airplane mode as much as possible.
- Keep cordless phones, cell phones, computers and TVs out of kids’ bedrooms.
- Unplug all electronics in the bedroom while sleeping. If you need an alarm clock, use battery-powered.
- Don’t use electric blankets or wireless baby monitors.
- Try to keep the head of bed away from electrical outlets.
- Keep the room dark at night.
- Hardwire internet connections, rather than using WiFi, and minimize wireless or bluetooth devices
- If you use WiFi, turn it off at night.
- Don’t allow smart meters to be installed on or near your home.
- Use radiation protection cases and shields on your phones, tablets and laptops.
- Walk barefoot on the earth as much as possible
- Regularly expose yourself and your kids to negative ions by being in nature. Take trips to waterfalls or the ocean, if possible.

Thanksgiving is a cherished tradition, an opportunity to gather with family and friends to celebrate gratitude for the many blessings in our lives. Whether you're traveling to visit relatives or hosting a festive dinner at home, preparing for Thanksgiving can be a joyful yet daunting task, especially for parents.

Getting your kids outside more, engaging them in calisthenics, and encouraging them to think about their eating doesn't have to be a chore—for you or for them! By making these activities fun, creative, and interactive, you’re not only helping your children develop healthy habits but also creating memorable family moments.
