There is someone in California advocating an extension cord wrapped
once around the bed to protect from outside EMF. I haven't tried this
to see if will work for a couple of reasons.
I have been playing around with Slim Spurling products and he says that
wrapping a wire in a clockwise direction creates a beneficial energy
field rather than a detrimental energy field.
I wonder if this would work with an A/C current?
Any body have insight into this?
