"Testimonial"

My 98 year old mother, who has dementia, lives in a  Care Facility. For about the last 2-3 years, Karen has had us topically apply specific essential oils blends to mom, and has also  made subtle changes to her room for the purpose of “Clearing EMF stress, and Energizing” her living space. In mom’s last Annual Care Conference (her facility’s doctor and care giver’s report on mom’s health and well being) there had been zero decline year over year in mom’s dementia, and her general heath was excellent for her age! I attribute this to following Karen’s recommendations. 
Thank-you Karen!!

Chapter 1 - Introduction

If you're caring for a loved one—whether in a retirement home, long-term care facility, hospital, or your own home—you may feel limited in what you can really do to support their health. The good news is there is a LOT you can do - some pivotal. These strategies address often-overlooked and unrecognised environmental factors like wireless technology, lighting, fabrics worn, and chemical exposure, which are a major stress factor to already vulnerable bodies.

From personal experience in my own family, and performing music therapy in care facilities for over 12 years, I've seen how these changes can make a real difference. Those with frailty (sarcopenia) or cognitive challenges are especially sensitive to LED lighting and modern wireless signals and in some cases this is even a major factor in their decline.  Gut health links directly to brain health (the gut/brain axis), so this is also a consideration.

If physical issues dominate but their mental function is strong and they are able to follow instruction, implementation is easier. Aim for at least five strategies from this guide. Share them with care staff to raise awareness and help others where possible.

Chapter 2 - Today's Environment and Seniour Health

Today's high nnEMF (non native Electro Magnetic Fields) Environment is NOT favourable to seniours' health for these reasons, according to the conceptual frameworks of Dr. Jack Kruse, Dr. Jerry Tennant, Dr. Robert Becker, and Dr. Martin Pall.  There was a shift in 2010 with the rollout of 4G (a new technology), smart meters, and dramatic increase in cell tower and other wireless exposure.  "Bluetooth" hearing aids are also a serious issue for brain and overall health.

A Note about Body Polarity (Dr. Jerry Tennant MD), and a simple solution

At this time a lot of people suddenly became "sick".. (including myself and my mother, although we lived on different continents at the time. )  Recently after reviewing Dr. Tennant's work, I realised that the mechanism of harm is these completely foreign frequencies have a very positive charge, and flip our polarity from a healthy negative charge, to a "bad" positive charge.  With a positive charge - or weak negative charge - mitochondria in the cells are not able to generate the -20 to -25 millivolts of electricity that cells need to maintain health, and certainly not the -50 millivolts needed to heal and regenerate cells. For example, cancer cells have a charge of +30 milivolts. 

Sweet Orange (See above image)

I consider Sweet Orange essential oil a true GIFT from Mother Nature! SItting right under our noses, it's common and one of the easiest oils to obtain, is inexpensive, and tremendously effective. 

Recently we found this simple solution to maintain healthy cellular polarity and electrical system, balance the chakras, and support electrical conductivity - all to a healthy level,  even in today's environment.  Organic Sweet Orange essential oil  blended with organic jojoba oil  applied topically morning and evening, maintained a negative charge in all volunteers tested.  This is due to the completely unique chemical makeup of sweet orange - mainly numerous terpenes and mono terpenes - that give exceptional support to the body's electrical system. 

Instructions for Sweet Orange use: 

 We used Divine Essence brand organic sweet orange essential oil, but if not available in USA, Aura Cacia organic also works  For organic jojoba oil, we have used Aura Cacia, Naka, Divine Essence, and NOW brand (but not their essential oils).    Apply 4 drops inside the wrist,  then rub wrists together, ideally 2 x day, especially during the first week. One application per day will fix the polarity reducing further degeneration, but may not be enough to produce the -50 millivolts needed for healing and actual repair.  For this it should be applied 2 x day. 

NOTE: if your loved one is able to apply it themselves, that's ideal. If not, a reminder phone call may help, or when you visit, apply it to them yourself as soon as you arrive and immediately before leaving. Or of course make arrangements with staff or PSW. 

In a glass dropper bottle, add 2T (30ml) organic jojoba oil, and exactly 8 drops of organic sweet orange oil.  Apply 4 drops inside the wrist wrist, then rub wrists together.

Other options for use

• Brain/eyes:   Polarity can also be off in isolated organs or parts of the body, such as the brain/eyes.  In addition to the wrists, massage 2 drops into the central forehead (3rd eye) just above and between the eyebrows. 
• Bunions - painful feet:  to each foot, massage 6 drops sweet orange blend into at least half the foot area surrounding bunions, top and underside of the foot. (A good anti inflammatory follow up oil for this si HO Wood.. see my Essential oils article, #19).   Ideally 3 x day for 1 wk, then 2 x day as needed. 
• foot massage -  massage 2 drops into the soft area below the center of the ball of the foot.  This has the same benefit as applying it inside the wrists. 

Wireless technologies in Care Settings..

Example and solutions for a typical problem environment : 

2 ladies approached me as their mother was not doing well in her lovely new retirement home.  They took me to her apartment, and what I found was, well, an environmental disaster.  At this time I was not yet aware of the benefits of organic sweet orange oil to correct her polarity and help the body function normally depspite her environment.  (That would now be my first recommendation.) There was a LOT going on in this apartment - I did not want to overwhelm the sisters, so did not even get into avoiding polyester and acrylic in clothing and throws/shawls, which are "electron stealers", and leave the body with a more positive charge. 

In a very small 1 bedroom apartment I found:

1. 3 cordless phones including 1 beside her bed
2. television with TV box  (Electronically, the box is far more a stressful than today's TV except for the blue lit screen)
3. a rarely used microwave (which her favourite chair reclined back to and almost touched when reclined),
4. fluorescent lighting in the kitchenette area
5. LED bulbs in lamps
6. Large digital clock with large readout beside her bed,  a digital photograph display, numerous small digital devices such as a thermometer.  Use analogue. 
7. WIFI. 

The solutions: 

(As mentioned above, today my first recommendation would be applying the sweet orange oil regularly - ideally 2 x day.)

1.  The most serious issue were the 3 wireless phones which is compareable to having 3 cell towers in your home (transmitters and receivers).  The obvious and best solution is to use traditional wired phones.  This works for older buildings, but many new buildings may not have phone jacks.  The best solution I have found for this kind of wireless technology is the use of amethyst geode pieces. A priority property of amethyst is that its very crystalline structure which emits the frequency of "order". nnEMF have a chaotic energy pattern and placing a few small amethyst geode pieces (fit easily in the palm) in a space will return energetic "order" and counteract considerable stress from wireless devices.  (TIP: Note that this will even work with visual clutter, which also creates a stressful chaotic energy - place an amethyst geode piece in an area that tends to get cluttered, such as a bathroom counter, and it will greatly reduce the stressful frequencies emitted by the clutter.) 

Choose dark purple amethyst with large crystals, as shown in header above. 

Use pieces at least roughly 2 1/2" x 2 - 3" which fits nicely into the palm. These ladies needed 3 pieces (available in rock shops), one for each cordless phone, and place them in areas of the room where their mother spent time - such as near her recliner or on a coffee table, on her bedside table or dresser, and another in the kitchenette.  These amethyst geode pieces also soften a lot of other incidental stresses from other devices so is a good overall environmental mitigation. 

NOTE:  Amethyst geodes are very energetically stable, and unlike most other rocks, do  not absorb stress or need to be cleared. The rock under the crystals is likely the reason for this. 

2. TV box:  The amethyst pieces mitagate signals from the box quite well. Get blue blocker glasses (amber lens) to protect eyes from blue light/screens. Wear while watching TV.  Available on line with prescription. Blue light and not enough outside light is a major cause of cataracts. (NOTE: in Maureen's mother's room we found a wooden doorstop, and placed that right in front of the TV box. It worked well.) 

3. If easy access, unplug the microwave when not in use or if rarely used. It DOES emit measurable nnEMF. Otherwise the amethyst will be helpful, and be sure favoured seating is not too close to the microwave. 

4.  Avoid using the kitchenette fluorescent light (tape over the switch as a reminder?)  - look for alternatives with incandescent or even halogen bulbs which are more full spectrum. 

5.  Replace LED with incandescent bulbs.  Try to use a red LED bulb somewhere in the space and leave it on - this creates a more full spectrum light environment. "SPECTROM", in Oakvilled Ontario, make red filters for ceiling pot lights.. place a filter over about 30% of LED potlights to dilute harmful blue light. 

6. Amethyst geodes will mitigate small incidental digital technology reasonably well, except digital clocks with a large readout. These have to go. Use an electric clock with an analogue face. 

7.  If possible turn the wifi off when not being used, or at least overnight.  Remotes are available in stores such as Home Depot, which easily switch off the power to an outlet.  They are meant for lamps, but will also switch off a router or anything else plugged into the outlet.  

Then energise the space with attractive accents!

1. I suggested they place a rose quartz dish with selenite (to keep it cleared) and clear quartz to enhance the energy of the rose quartz.  I use these in my real estate work. They give the room a softer, supportive feel. (see image) - fill a cork dish - this is an IKEA mug holder - with rose quartz pieces, clear quartz pieces, and 1 or 2 selenite sticks or pieces. Selenite is a salt based gypsum that will keep the stones energetically clean and charged up - maintenance free. Cork enhances the calming energy of the stones.  Place one on bedside table, another in central area such as coffee table. 

2. If the bathroom is not cluttered, place an artificial white orchid (IKEA) in a white or grey pot - this is related to sacred geometry and Feng Shui.  If cluttered, place an amethyst geode close/a few inches to the right tap. 

3. Place an all green sanseveria (snake plant) in a white ceramic pot, somewhere central in the living space - it significantly  harmonises energy and also dampens EMF stress. (See Image)

Environment is the number one priority 

• Mitigate some environmental stress using Sweet Orange Essential OIl blend as above. 
• A shielding piece provides very significant support if it is possible with your loved one.  They must be cognitively aware enough to wear it, and not remove it.  Any single shielding piece can be worn at one time - whichever piece would work best for them is good.  (Purchase from this site (email), or your local jeweler can very easily make a basic ring band from 20 gage pure copper wire plated with 18K gold.) Basic instructions are included in the Shielding Jewelry blog article. 
• Remove as much EMF stress from the environment as possible - see above "example" section.  Their body's biology simply has no available energy reserves to cope with the normal stressors of aging.  It inflames  thyroid issues, "aches and pains", burning, neurological inflammation, headaches, restless legs, insomnia, brain fog, fatigue, reduced immune function, mood swings, vision problems, sarcopenia, bone and calcium issues, blood clotting,  and even skin rash or itchiness. 
• Purge their closet of synthetics such as polyester and acylic (clothing and throws/shawls) - especially worn on the upper body - which drain energy and leave them with a positive charge.  (DR. Jack Kruse, Dr. Jerry Tennant). 
• and get them outside as much as possible - it's not so much the "fresh air" as most think - it's the natural full spectrum daylight/sunlight is an antidote for indoor blue light living.  Remove any glasses if possible when outside, at least part of the time, to let natural light into the eyes.  Note that light through glass is "blue light", as reds, infra reds, and ultra violet are greatly filtered out by the glass.  All of the Blue light spectrum makes it through glass, creating a blue light environment.  For this reason it is best to have a red light bulb on at all times (even LED - Walmart).     
• When outside, if possible, "ground" by removing their shoes and place bare/sock feet on the ground. (1/2 hour has ben shown enough to break up blood clots and reduce inflammation as seen with thermographic imaging.) IF not possible, remove your own shoes and hold their hand/arm - touching will transfer the electrons from the earth, to you, to your loved one. 
• Give them water to drink while you are there - roughly a 6oz glass per hour, but not a lot at once.  

. 

 General EMF info - why is it such a concern? 

1. Mitochondrial dysfunction and energy depletion

• nnEMF and artificial light are proposed to “steal” electrons from the mitochondrial electron transport chain, increasing reactive oxygen species (ROS) and causing inefficient, less ATP‑rich energy production.
• For seniors, whose mitochondria are already more compromised, this can show up as chronic fatigue, brain fog, and slower recovery from illness or injury.  

2.  Dehydration and loss of structured (EZ) water

• As we age we become more dehydrated even without today's hight nnEMF environment, which exacerbates the problem. 
• Kruse and Becker‑style models emphasize that excessive RF and artificial light disrupt the body’s ability to build and hold structured water at cell membranes and in the extracellular matrix, effectively “drying” the tissues.
• This makes seniors more prone to constipation, dry skin and joints, poor circulation, and reduced shock absorption in connective tissue because water is no longer acting as a proper conductor and cushion.

3.  Hormonal and endocrine disruption

• EMF‑driven oxidative stress and calcium dysregulation can disturb the hypothalamic‑pituitary‑gonadal‑adrenal axis, leading to altered cortisol, melatonin, sex hormones, and thyroid function.journals.4science+1
• In seniors, this can accelerate osteoporosis, sarcopenia, mood swings, sleep disruption, and sexual dysfunction, making the body behave “older” than it needs to.    pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih+

4.  Voltage and electron-deficit states (Dr. Jerry Tennant)

• Tennant’s voltage model suggests that nnEMF exposure pulls the body toward a more positive, electron‑poor state, which makes it harder to repair tissues and regenerate new, healthy cells.youtube+1
• For seniors, this can manifest as slower wound healing, chronic inflammation, and a greater tendency to “get stuck” in sick, inflamed, or degenerative patterns.  tennantinstitute+1

5.  calciium channel overload and nervous system hyper excitability (Dr. Martin Pall)

• EMF‑modulated fields can over‑activate voltage‑gated calcium channels (VGCCs), causing excessive calcium influx into cells, leading to oxidative stress, inflammation, and damage to mitochondria and DNA.pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih+1
• In seniors, this shows up as increased brain fog, anxiety, insomnia, arrhythmias, blood‑pressure shifts, and heightened sensitivity to environmental stimuli, often interpreted as “nervousness” or “undiagnosable".  journals.4science+1

6. Autonomic nervous sytem (ANS) disruption and "scrambled" voltage.

• Beck'er bioelectric work and Pall's EMF models both suggest that chronic, low level radiation can dysregulate the body's internal electrical gradients, messing up the normal wiring of the ANS.
• Regulate the body’s internal electrical gradients, messing up the normal “wiring” of the ANS.facebook
• Seniors may feel more often “on edge,” exhausted, or paradoxically wired and tired, with poor sleep, digestive chaos, and unexplained palpitations because the ANS can’t settle into a coherent, restful pattern.europa+1

7. Cancer and cellular sensecenece risk.

• Chronic oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and DNA damage from EmF associated ROS (reactive oxygen species) may push ells toard senescenc, mutation, and impaired surveillance, increasing cancer risk over ti
• In seniors, whose cells have already undergone more rounds of division and mutation, this can lower the threshold for cancer development and reduce the body’s ability to “clean up” abnormal cells.pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih+1

8 Cognitive and nerodegenerative vulnerability:

• Brains are metabolically very active, with high mitochondrial demand and constant electrical signaling, making them especially sensitive to EMF‑driven oxidative stress and blood‑brain‑barrier irritation.pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih+1
• In seniors, this can appear as increased risk of cognitive decline, brain fog, attention issues, and a higher susceptibility to neurodegenerative patterns, especially when combined with other environmental toxins.europa+1

9.  Chronic, low grade inflammation

• According to Kruse‑, Tennant‑, Becker‑, and Pall‑style models, modern radiation and nnEMF over‑stimulate cells and mitochondria, increasing oxidative stress and pro‑inflammatory signaling (e.g., cytokines like IL‑6, TNF‑α).
• In seniors, this tends to show up as “silent” but ongoing inflammation in joints, arteries, and the nervous system, contributing to stiffness, fatigue, cardiovascular risk, and a feeling that the body is always “on alert” and slightly sore or tender.

Other Solutions For Today's Environmental Stress...

These steps work in apartments, hospitals, or care homes. Hospital note: Skip skin applications or check with their doctor first to avoid  interaction with medical treatments.  Instead, follow the "electron transfer tip" in #4 - apply it to yourself only. 

1. Amethyst with Shungite - hospitals and care homes: soften the edge on today's high radiation environments 

  [Images 1 and 2)   This is suitable for hospitals and care homes.  The shungite increases the effectiveness of amethyst, but scale is very important. The shungite should be only 20-50% the size of the amethyst - too much shungite will render the amethyst ineffective. 

• In Maureen's testimonial at the top of this article, there was a high tension line close by, so we used a cork "mug holder" dish (IKEA) containing a few pieces of tumbles amethyst and a piece of shungite, on the window sill. (Glass lets all microwaves/radiations pass through.) This is not as eye catching as the amethyst geode and safer to leave out in an open environment. 

• Amethyst geode pieces or dark tumbled amethyst can be used In a secure retirement home or private residence (dark purple, with larger crystals) touching a smaller shungite piece.  (black, standard quality) Place in key central living areas such as living room coffee table, bedroom, or in a windowsill to protect from neighbourhood EMF's, power lines, and towers within sight, . Use at least double the mass of amethyst to shungite (up to 5:1 mass).  A small shungite piece can also be placed on top of a geode. 
• In a hospital, place amethyst/shungite on bedside table or wherever possible in the room.  For a one-bedroom seniour's apartment space, position one in the living room (coffee or end table) and one in the bedroom (dresser or bedside). This simple setup helps harmonize wireless signals from WiFi, cordless phones, and devices. Available at rock shops.

NOTE: The IKEA cork mug holder makes a perfect dish for the stones.. NEVER place the stones on metal - it will inactivate them as long as there is contact. 

2. Optimize Lighting as much as possible (care home or residence only)

• LED and fluorescent bulbs emit blue light and flicker, lacking full-spectrum red/infrared, and ultra violet frequencies essential for hormone and energy production. Replace with incandescent bulbs (which are quite full-spectrum) in living spaces. Add one red incandescent bulb near the TV (or LED red if distant). Full-spectrum options exist for both.
• Get them outside— (light through glass is blue light dominant.) Take your loved one outside 30 minutes daily (no sunglasses if possible) or as much as possible, especially mornings for red/infrared. Choose rooms with bright natural light and balcony access. In hospitals, dim unnecessary LEDs during visits.  Dr. Jack Kruse emphasizes that the red and purple light spectrum are the antidote for blue light. 
• Blue Blocking glasses:  In a hospital setting, if you loved one is awake, you can give them blue light blocking glasses with amber lenses, to wear while visiting or watching TV (buy on line). Daytime blue blockers have a yellow or orange lens and block 60%-90% of blue light through the eyes.  (Our skin has non visual light receptors so they are still exposed slightly via bare skin, so cover up. )

3. Shielding Jewelry against most nnEMF

A single bracelet, pendant, or ring with balanced shielding materials (e.g., shungite, copper, gold, amethyst) protects against 95% general radiation and 88% microwaves per PKP testing. See images for examples. As mentioned above, a jeweler can easily make the gold plated copper wire ring, image 7.  This alone is about 80% effective. 

[image 2: amethyst and shungite for pocket]

[Image 3: Shielding bracelet]

[Image 5: Shielding pendants]

[Image 7: Shielding copper/gold plain ring with amethyst/shungite bracelet]

4. Topical Essential Oil Blends  (Electron Boosters - get Doctor approval first)

  You can use these solutions if your loved one is living in a retirement or long term care home,  or in a hospitial.  However - If you loved one is in serious condition in hospital, do not apply any of these solutions to their skin as it may interfere with medications or medical care. Use it on yourself, then use the "electron transfer" tip, below.    

These topical applications raise scalar energy to boost ability to heal (per Dr. Jerry Tennant).. 

• Sweet Orange Essential Oil (organic) blended with organic jojoba oil.  (This is the priority essential oil for today's population - read more about it in my "Essential Oils" blog article, scroll to #15.) In a nutshell, since about 2010 with the introduction of multiple non native EMF technologies (including smart meters, 4G, increased cell tower density, and new GPS technology), the electrical polarity of the general population was "flipped" from a healthy negative charge, to an unhealthy positive charge. Many people began to experience negative health changes around this time.   According to Dr. Jerry Tennant, healthy cells must be able to generate a charge of -20 to -25 millivolts in the mitochondria. to maintain themselves, and must be able to produce -50milivolts for repair and regeneration of cells.  A positive charge makes this impossible, and will bring degeneration and illness - cancer occurs at +30 millivolts.  Sweet Orange essential oil donates a large number of electrons when topically applied, and in every case tested will bring polarity back to a healthy negative charge where the body can function properly again. 

NOTE:  Polyester and Acrylic synthetics are electron stealers, leaving the body with a positive charge. Do your best to go through closets and keep only natural fiber clothing and shawls - especially on the upper body. 

• INSTRUCTIONS:  In a glass dropper bottle mix 4 drops in per 1T organic jojoba oil.  Apply 4 drops inside the wrist (rub wrists together), then for eyes optionally massage 1-2 drops into the center area of the forehead (or 3rd eye area).  Ideally 2 x day, but even 1 x day may be extremely beneficial - just do your best. When you are visiting, apply as soon as you arrive, and again when you leave, or give staff or PSW instructions. 
• Magnesium Spray (3 sprays to thymus area AM/PM):  Topical magnesium is used to help the body's electrical system to move from incoherent (from a high EMF environment) to coherent, and improve success. Magnesium is very supportive against hospital electrical equipment, wifi, monitors, etc.
• Oregano and lemon "EMF Shield Blend" (apply 4 drops on Thymus AM/PM): This acts as a protective shield against non native EMF as the olive remains near the surface of the skin, protecting the vulnerable thymus gland area.  INSTRUCTIONS; Fill a 30ml glass dropper bottle with quality olive oil + 8 drops oil of oregano + 8 drops organic lemon.  Apply 4 drops to the thymus gland area 1 -2 x day.  Also raises electron levels and scalar energy, providing energy for regeneration. 
• TOUCH:   The Electron Transfer Tip: Apply to yourself first to optimise your own electron levels. Healthy touch donates electrons to the unwell (Tennant principle). Hold their foot 10+ minutes per side (one hand under, one over). 

The Hospital Environment, Electron Transfer method

The environment in a hospital is certainly not ideal - no direct sunlight, a lot of monitors and electronics, plus wifi and LED lighting.  First - harmonise their environment by following the first solution.  Place the amethyst/shungite dish on a table in the area of their monitoring equipment, such as their bedside table. Then,  for yourself only, apply 4 dr orange blend inside your wrists to correct and strengthen your own polarity, and if possible wear a shielding piece - or at least amethst/shungite in your pocket to reduce EMF Stress.  These benefits will transfer to your loved one with touch, so hold their arm, hand, or feet. (Feet is very soothing and helpful.)  .  Dr Jerry Tennant explains there is a normal electron transfer from the healthy to the sick.  This way, sitting with your sick loved you, you can make a real difference and truly benfeit their recovery or situation.  

More about the feet.   (SEe image 4)  Our feet are designed to absorb electrons from the earth which is why our feet (and hands) sweat - this improves conductivity.  Pull a chair up to the foot of the bed, and find a comfortable position such as leaning your forearms on the bed.  "Sandwich" the person's foot in your hands...Hold one hand across under their foot, and the other over the foot - whichever way is comfortable for you.  You should be able to sit like this for hours, but do it for at least 10 minutes on each foot.   If their feet are not accessible, touch any bare skin such as the arm. Likewise, if you are wearing a shielding piece the sick person will also receive the benefit as long as you are touching them. 

Here is a video link for a simple "foot reflexology" treatment which I developed a few years ago.  I also have a blog article on it - see "Desert Island Solutions".   It's called "The Six Universal Foot Zones".  Even if you just sit holding each of the 6 zones for a few minutes consecutively, you will help to clear the zone, similar to accupuncture (especially when repeated multiple times).  The end result is removing blockages and increasing energy flow.    And it feels good!

QUICK CHECK LIST!

Check and Mitigate as many of these as possible.  

• LED and fluorescent bulbs: change to incandescent or full spectrum (both available in full spectrum).  Try to include at least 1 red bulb - in this case LED red bulb is fine. Red is the antidote for blue light, and also dilutes it. Red filters are available to cover ceiling pot lights.  Keep fluorescent lights off where possible - use lamps with red or incandescent bulbs instead.
• Microwave: Unplug or replace with toaster oven; keep 10ft away from seating.
• Digital Displays: Remove/relocate clocks, thermometers. Use analog faces.
• Cordless Phones: Switch to corded if jacks exist. Add 3-hole gold dot resonators (Biomagnetic Research, USA) to unavoidable ones.
• Router/TV Box: Place wood barrier (e.g., wood doorstop wedge) in front. Red bulb nearby.
• Help Buttons: Wrist preferred over chest - wear a shielding pendant; keeping it off-body is ideal (on a walker).
• Hearing Aids: Non-Bluetooth only.
• Watches: Avoid batteries/smartwatches; use wall or traditional hand clocks (non digital).

Chapter 4

Other Factors

Fabrics: Polyester/acrylic drain electrons, worsen pain/radiation sensitivity. Choose cotton, bamboo, wool, silk, nylon/spandex. Natural sleepwear/bedding.

Water: Countertop filter (Santévia) remineralizes after removing chemicals/plastics. Available in health food stores. Drop a piece of raw aquamarine (rock shops) in the bottom of the filter to help to energetically neutralise fluoride. 

Chemicals: Nature Clean unscented laundry + vinegar softener. Dr. Bronner's or other mild glycerine soap for hands - Limit sanitizers (Dr. Mercola explains how they are absorbed through the skin, and sanitise/disrupt the microbiome).

Retirement Home Living:  How to Clear and Energise the living space

There are a few simple Feng Shui related "energising strategies" that you can use to enhance the energy of their living space, making it more supportive to their health. 

• Vinegar Spray to clear out stale/stressful energy: 1/3 vinegar, 2/3 water in a spray bottle. Mist air, fabrics, corners for energetic detox. Add 1 1/2 cups white vinegar to Laundry too.  Spray the room thoroughly, up and down corners, under tables, inside drawers (no need to remove clothes), extra attention to antiques or older unpainted wooden furniture, which absorbs stressful energy. This only needs to be done once thoroughly.  Then spray around the room like an air freshener every month or so to maintain it. NOTE: you can also spray inside closets to freshen clothing. 
• Amethyst/Shungite: At least 2 locations, as above. In a cork dish is ideal, but never touching metal. 
• Snake Plant ("Sanseveria", All-Green variety): Bedroom + living area; white pots. Improves air (NASA) and harmonises energy of the space. 
• Rose Quartz + Selenite: Bedside/end table for calming frequency.  Use it touching a piece of selenite to keep it clear and "low maintence".  (most rocks typically have to be cleared regularly as they absorb stress.).
• Photos: Children under 5 only (high, pure energy). This could include photos of yourself or themselves under 5. 
• NOTE: I will mention this more than once in this article because it is so important - avoid synthetic fabrics such as polyester and acrylic - very popular with the elderly as they are "low care".. however these fabrics not only are a source of plastic absorption through the skin, but they steal electrons, leaving the body with a positive charge.  Go through their closets and keep only natural fiber clothing.  This also includes blankets and shawls.  I see so many frail elderly wrapped in hand knit acrylic shawls, or soft polyester wraps - this actually makes them weaker.  Use cotton, wool, cashmere (which is actually energising to them), and other natural fibers. 

Chapter 6

Exercise:  Reversing or avoiding Sarcopenia (frailty) with Kaatsu bands

• Combat sarcopenia easily using Kaatsu (Japan). Arm/leg bands cycle gentle pressure 10 min, 4-7x/week. They can be used on imobile, weak, bedridden patients - most of their studies in Japan were done on the elderly, with heart conditions.  Builds fast-twitch muscle even bedridden by increasing blood flow and deep circulation. In one case a 104-year-old year old lady regained speech/mobility/altertness. See kaatsu.ca (choose the air tube option, not Bluetooth). Share cost with residents or perhaps the residence itself.  
• Many residences offer "chair yoga" and other exercise classes - encourage your loved one to participate as this improves at the very least flexibilty, balance, and circulation. 

Chapter 7

DIET and NUTRITION : some suggestions

Always check with their doctor before taking new supplements as some interfere with medications. 

• 3 Priority oral supplements - Omega 3 fish oil, 1 x day with food (Carlsson Super Omega 3),  vitamin D + K  by Can Prev (it's not a replacement for sunlight - according to Dr. Kruse there are at least 12 other vitamin D like compounds that are NOT in supplements).  In his best seller "Vitamin D, the Sunshine Vitamin", Dr. Zoltan Rona recommends high levels of vitamin D (always taken with K) to take advantage of the cancer prevention and other properties of vitamin D. For me personally, he recommends 10,000iu (10 drops) per day.   Magnesium:  magnesium is the most abundant mineral in the body but is used up quickly by environmental stress.  We use 3 caps/day of Magnesium bis Glycinate 200 (Can Prev brand). 
• Topicals:  Essential oil topical blends, Magnesium spray - a few sprays 1-2 x day on upper chest,
• Food Staples: IF they have a kitchen and eat sometimes on their own, bring Broccoli microgreens, goat mozzarella + rice crackers (check label avoiding oils), frozen wild berries, tart cherry juice (1:2 water).  Seniours tend to love cookies, but most are not healthy choices as they contain vegetable/seed oils.  Two exceptions are Nairns Ginger cookies, and Tates Gluten Free ginger cookies (uses butter, not seed/vegetable oil). 
• Keep a high quality olive oil (organic, Greek is best) if making microgreen salads and to add to cooked vegetable to increase nutrient absorption
• Make a Cranberry compote as a dessert snack with blueberries:  1 package frozen organic cranberries + ½ cup maple syrup, 1/2 cup water, simmer 2 minutes.
• Power Herbs :  Make up 2 bottles and leave one on their dining table with their name on it.  It will improve the quality and energy of residence meals, and help to digest fats properly.  (bad oils are typically used.) Use organic dried herbs only.

2 parts oregano + 1 each sage/thyme/parsley + ¼ part pepper. Season meals liberally.

Summary

1. The first step is making the Organic Sweet Orange blend, and using that 2 x day - for yourself as well. 
2. Do your best to first reduce environmental stress in their living space,
3. then increase energy of their environment (including natural fiber clothing) so the body doesn't waste energy dealing with needless stressors.  
4. Long term, get your loved one into the habit of regular grounding and sunlight exposure, especially early morning.  Give them blue blocking glasses for watching TV - available on line, also with prescription.
