Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.

Turning off all power in the house at night and using ethernet instead of Wi-Fi are health optimization practices.

◐Partially SupportedEarthing, defined as touching the Earth with bare skin, is distinct from electrical grounding.

◐Partially SupportedUsing only red lights in the house at night is a practice that has been adopted, though they are not as effective as initially thought.

◐Partially SupportedEarthing mats should be connected directly to the Earth, not to a household electrical outlet.

◐Partially SupportedThe ideal practice is to connect to the Earth (earthing) rather than the electrical ground of a home.

◐Partially SupportedGrounding to a home's electrical ground can carry direct current and dirty electricity.

◐Partially SupportedEnergized electrical wiring behind a bed can radiate electric fields 6 to 8 feet, potentially affecting sleep.

◐Partially SupportedImplementing advanced health practices like EMF avoidance leads to clearer thinking, more energy, better sleep, and improved bodily functions.
