Steps to Reduce EMF/EMR in your Home
Steps to Reduce EMF/EMR in Your Home
Technology is racing ahead. Unfortunately, health regulations are not keeping up. In Australia, ARPANSA (our radiation authority) offers guidelines, not standards. These are outdated and unrealistic for today’s tech-heavy world.
Europe has already taken steps to protect its people from “electrosmog.” While we wait for similar action here, there are things you can do now to protect your home and your health.
Easy First Steps to Reduce EMF/EMR in Your Home in Sydney
Start with these simple habits:
-
Wait before putting your phone to your ear. When a call connects, radiation peaks. Count to one before speaking.
-
Avoid Bluetooth and AirPods. Choose AirTubes instead. They don’t heat your head and keep radiation away from your brain.
-
Use speakerphone or wired headphones whenever possible.
-
Switch to airplane mode at night—or keep your phone out of the bedroom entirely.
-
Don’t carry your phone against your body. If you must, put it on airplane mode.
-
Replace Bluetooth devices like keyboards and mice with cabled ones.
Make Your Sydney Home a Low-EMF Zone
Take these extra steps at home:
-
Shut off TVs and computers at night.
-
Put your Wi-Fi modem on a timer. Turn it off while you sleep.
-
Request an analogue meter. SMART meters send constant signals and can raise EMF levels in your home.
-
Rearrange your bedroom. Avoid sleeping on a wall that backs onto a meter box, fridge, or oven.
-
Avoid electric blankets. Use natural bedding instead.
-
Move old alarm clocks further away from your body. Every bit of distance helps.
Protect Your Kids from EMR
Children absorb more EMF than adults. Here’s how to protect them:
-
Avoid handing kids wireless tablets or phones. Download content and use airplane mode.
-
Use screen mirroring for big-screen viewing instead of handing them a device.
-
Place iPads on a table instead of their lap.
-
Never scroll over your pregnant belly. This can raise risks of miscarriage or long-term developmental issues. See study on
“Prenatal and postnatal exposure to cell phone use and behavioral problems in children” and
“Cell phone use and behavioural problems in young children.”
“When electrical properties are considered, a child’s head’s absorption can be over two times greater, and absorption of the skull’s bone marrow can be ten times greater than adults” See study about “Exposure Limits: The underestimation of absorbed cell phone radiation, especially in children“.
Steps to Reduce EMF/EMR in Your Home Through Smart Device Choices
Ask yourself: Do I really need a smart fridge or microwave? Each smart device adds more EMF to your space.
-
Unplug unused electronics.
-
Switch to LED lighting. Compact fluoros can emit dirty electricity.
