Mindsip insights from this episode:
Open windows to access beneficial infrared light
Standard glass windows, even on a clear day, block the majority of the sun's beneficial infrared light, which you can only get by opening the window or going outside.
Shield rooms with grounding material to prevent EMF exposure
In rooms with high-EMF devices like a Biocharger, grounding material should be placed behind the drywall to act as an insulator, preventing you from becoming a "lightning rod.".
Balance benefits and drawbacks of Low-E windows for optimal energy efficiency
Energy-efficient Low-E windows, which have a silver coating, present a trade-off by blocking beneficial solar infrared light while also dampening some external wireless radiation.
Prioritize sleep consistency over duration for better health
Recent research suggests that maintaining a consistent sleep and wake time is even more important for your health than the total number of hours you sleep.
Shield appliance cords to reduce electric fields
The unshielded power cords on your appliances create electric fields, which can be mitigated by replacing them with shielded cables or using special cable wraps.
Distinguish red light from infrared for therapeutic benefits
Many people mistakenly believe red-colored LED lights provide infrared benefits, but you often need separate incandescent or halogen bulbs to get the actual therapeutic infrared spectrum.
Eliminate EMF exposure with grounded USB chargers
Even three-prong USB chargers can create a high electric field around your body, but specially engineered grounded chargers like the "Safe Charger" can eliminate this exposure.
Create a Faraday cage at home with conductive paint
You can create a Faraday cage in a room by applying a special conductive carbon paint to the walls and grounding it to the home's electrical system, shielding from EMF.
