Ground and Shielding Perspectives

We live in a world filled with electromagnetic radiation (EMR), and are therefore constantly subjected to risks associated with EMR exposure.  To stay safe, many are opting for EMR shielding materials while many others are opting for grounding products.  But, which one is better or safest?  Grounding? Shielding? Or both?  Is it the same answer for everyone and every situation?

Join us at the SAN Center in Phoenix to hear Dr. Henry Ealy from the Energetic Health Institute and Liz Menkes from Building Biology, discuss their various perspectives on grounding and shielding.   Come hear from 2 experts in the field, listen to different perspectives, and ask your burning questions about grounding and shielding.

Come Say Farewell to Ursula Conway, President CHDAZ

Immediately following the Q&A portion of the evening, we will have dessert and tea while giving a warm send-off to our distinguished president, Ursula Conway, as she embarks on the next phase of her health freedom journey.

As Ursula stated in her farewell note, she is moving “Not away from CHDAZ, but away from the leadership role I’ve been so honored to hold. It’s time for me to leave administration behind so that I can spend more time in the field reaching people. More time engaging with legislators. More time reaching the moveable middle.”

So please join us to thank Ursula and wish her a warm farewell.

Notes:

Shielding refers to the use of a conductive barrier to block unwanted electromagnetic interference (EMI) from entering or exiting our bodies. It prevents us from behaving like an antenna picking up external electromagnetic fields.

Grounding (earthing), on the other hand, is a strategy undertaken to protect individuals and electrical equipment from raised alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC) voltages and shock hazards.  It provides a low electrical resistance pathway for electricity to flow to ground whilst reducing the build-up of excess charge.
