Why You Must Protect Yourself from Electromagnetic Frequencies (EMFs)
I once had a client who had a bump in her mouth that wouldn’t go away. The lump would shrink with the release work I did. But it would keep coming back.
She was living in Taiwan at the time.
Inside her apartment were big-screen TVs that were wired to computers. The apartment was filled with EMFs (Electromagnetic Fields) throughout the building, and I got that the EMFs were interfering with her ability to heal.

My feline fur baby Tuk Tuk just turned 15. One and a half years ago, she developed horrible leg cramps that seemed to strike randomly. She’d scream with fear, and then struggle to walk. I realized that by massaging her back legs, I could get the blood flowing again, and she’d be back on her feet as if nothing had happened. I was very concerned.

My client walked into my office on guard. She was stiff and seemed unable to relax. While she had a pleasant demeanor, she really seemed to struggle with being at ease in her own skin. In short, she reminded me of me just a few years ago.
How the negative self-talk began
I learned that she had a narcissistic father who was very controlling and critical. With him she felt like she was always under a microscope, and that with every move she would make, she could be judged harshly. I knew exactly what that felt like. It is suffocating!

I remember how relieved I was when

My friend practices Vipassana meditation and is off to a meditation retreat this weekend. He invited me to go, but I still have a lot of unpacking to do, and I don’t feel like I can get away for a whole weekend.
This conflict remind me of the conflict between being vs. doing.
I used to be hyper focused on doing. My list of things to do has always been longer than I have had time to complete. But because I didn’t take the time to renew, I wasn’t enjoying life, and I wasn’t very productive while working.

My client was a successful professional organizer. I had known her for years, and she had taken a leadership role in an organization that we were both a part of. She had played a key role in making it run smoothly So I was surprised to see that on the day of her appointment, she called to cancel because she had double booked her appointments. She rescheduled, and again she had to reshuffle things, but this time she made seeing me a priority. This was not the organized professional I knew her to be!
In her session, I asked about what was going on, and why she was struggling with organizing, and she confessed to feeling particularly scatterbrained lately. She said she had really been struggling to keep her calendar straight over the last few weeks, and that it was interfering with her ability to do her job. As an organizer, she said that she was in her words, “a mess” and very embarrassed about it.
We had to make addressing this a priority.
