About this episode
What if a few simple changes in your daily routine could dramatically lower your EMF exposure and support a calmer, healthier nervous system? In this quick and actionable minisode, Dr. Aaron Hartman shares simple, science-backed strategies to reduce electromagnetic field (EMF) exposure in your home, workplace, and everyday environment. Whether you're EMF-sensitive or simply want to prevent nervous system dysregulation, these practical tips help you minimize unnecessary exposure without making drastic lifestyle changes. From managing Wi-Fi and cell phones to choosing the right lighting and understanding shielding, this episode breaks down what actually matters when it comes to EMF safety. Key Insights Your home is where half of your EMF exposure happens, making nighttime habits especially important. Turning off Wi-Fi at night and keeping your phone in airplane mode while you sleep can dramatically reduce EMF load. Avoiding Bluetooth earbuds inside the ear canal helps limit direct EMF exposure to the head. Brick, concrete, and certain paints naturally block EMFs better than wood or vinyl structures. Fluorescent and LED lighting contain transformers that emit EMF; incandescent bulbs emit far less. Smart meters matter only if they're placed near sleeping areas. Shielding methods work best when they involve physical barriers , not “frequency-modifying” gadgets. Cars and workplaces are overlooked sources of EMF due to electronics and lighting systems. EMF sensitivity is more common in individuals with chronic inflammation, mold illness, CIRS, or nervous system dysregulation.
