We live in a world where being “plugged in” has become second nature. From smartwatches to fitness trackers and sleep rings, wearable tech promises to keep us healthier and more informed. But what if the very devices designed to track your health are quietly disrupting it?
Both your heart and brain are electrical organs, constantly sending and receiving signals to keep you alive and in balance. When we surround ourselves with artificial electromagnetic fields—from Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and constant tracking—those natural signals can get scrambled. Think of it like static on a radio: your body’s electrical “conversation” starts to lose clarity.
As I explain in Zapped, our bodies are like finely tuned antennas—75% water and highly conductive. We’re meant to resonate with the Earth’s natural electromagnetic hum, not the artificial frequencies of wearable tech. When you strap on a smartwatch or Oura ring 24/7, you’re putting that man-made frequency directly against your skin, right over key energy centers like your heart and nervous system.
Over time, that low-level exposure can interfere with cellular communication, create oxidative stress, and even impact mood, sleep, and focus. Some people feel it as fatigue, anxiety, or brain fog—symptoms often dismissed as “just stress.” But more often than not, your body is simply overloaded by too much electrical noise.
And while I understand the appeal of tracking every step, heartbeat, and hour of sleep, remember: your body already has a built-in biofeedback system far more sophisticated than any app. It’s called intuition. Your body knows when it’s tired, hungry, stressed, or at peace. You just have to listen.
So this week, I invite you to take a break from wearable tech and let your body recalibrate. Slip off your gadgets, turn off the trackers, and step outside barefoot. Let your body sync up again with the Earth’s natural rhythm—the one we’ve known since time began. You don’t need a device to tell you how you feel. Your body is already telling you... but are you listening?
