Turmeric: Transdermally & TransmucosallyToo! – Pranic Formulations 10% Off
Conditions Caused by Magnesium deficiency
Low levels of magnesium can result in many conditions, namely:
— cramping of the muscles, leading to
—heartbeat arrhythmia
— painful menstrual cycles
— calf muscle pain (“Charlie horses”)
— twitching of the eyelids
But not just that. here is a list of chronic conditions associated with low or depleted levels of magnesium:
Adrenal fatigue – adrenaline, noradrenaline and cortisol deplete magnesium. Stress is a big factor for adrenal fatigue. Stress causes excess elimination of magnesium through urine
Alzheimer’s
Angina
Anxiety and Panic Attacks
Asthma
Atherosclerosis with calcium deposits.
Bowel disease
Depression
Detoxification
Diabetes
Headaches
High Blood Pressure
Hardening of the arteries
Inflammation
Osteoporosis

Turmeric:
How
NOT
To Use It!
Years ago, when we (here in the West!) discovered the amazing health benefits of Turmeric and it became (yet) a(nother) great health-food fad, Vaidya Mishra was very alarmed to see how Turmeric was being recommended and used “irresponsibly”…. He made several videos to address this phenomenon. Finally, now, we have studies that are confirming Vaidya’s teachings, and specifically the fad of consuming raw turmeric powder with large quantities of black pepper – the idea is that black pepper will help absorb turmeric which would otherwise remain inert in our bodies.

Taking Turmeric with Black Pepper May Damage the Liver
The bright yellow spice turmeric, which is often used in Indian cooking, contains a potent nutrient called curcumin. It belongs to a group of compounds known as curcuminoids and has potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, which have been linked with better joint health, cognitive function, heart health, and more.
Yet, curcumin is tough for your body to absorb and use effectively. It has poor solubility in water and is rapidly metabolized and eliminated from the body before it can be absorbed into your bloodstream, where it can exert its beneficial effects. This is why some supplement manufacturers add piperine from black pepper to curcumin to enhance its absorption.
However, experts are becoming increasingly concerned that taking turmeric with piperine can cause liver damage. In a study published in The American Journal of Medicine, researchers looked at data from participants with turmeric-related liver injuries enrolled in the US Drug-Induced Liver Injury Network, analyzing all of the turmeric supplements that those with liver disease were taking.
What the researchers found is that piperine may raise turmeric to toxic levels in some people. Seven out of the 10 participants who experienced liver injury from taking turmeric had a gene called human leukocyte antigen (HLA), specifically HLA-B*35:01. Taking turmeric with other bioavailability enhancers – such as ginger – may be a safer way to get its benefits.
The best way to consume turmeric is with a fatty medium (ghee, milk) so that it can travel to the fat tissue and be absorbed there, as well as to help balance it drying and heating properties. Use it also with other balancing and cooling spices: coriander, fennel, and also cumin. Also best to have it with food – lentils or vegetables. Or with a glass of raw freshly boiled milk. There is great wisdom and science in the ayurvedic sutras, as taught to us by Vaidya Mishra.

Guidelines
~ Dr M. Teitelbaum
I have seen so many women through the years who did not know that they needed to do some basic cleansing of mind, body and spirit for at least one year before conceiving a child, and as a result they suffered through difficult pregnancies and/or their babies developed all types of health problems.
When a woman is pregnant she is sharing her blood with her baby. So all the toxins she has accumulated over her lifetime from processed foods to breathing in air pollution to using skin care products with chemicals (which absorb immediately into the bloodstream directly from the skin), to all the pharmaceuticals she takes — all these toxins are stored in many of her tissues, especially the fat tissues, such as found in the brain, liver, kidneys, bone marrow and the fat cells themselves. And don’t forget the heavy metals from the air pollution, the fish you eat, the old mercury amalgam dental fillings and the heavy metals you received from your vaccinations. You even have to detox out the fluoride from the water if you were exposed to fluoridated water at any point in your life.
During the early childhood years the child gets rid of the toxins he or she acquired from their mother while in the womb by getting the early childhood diseases, such as measles, mumps, rubella and chicken pox. These diseases create rashes on the skin as these nasty toxins come out through the sweat pores of the skin, which is the largest organ of elimination. But even though it is not fun having these diseases, it is somewhat of a rite of passage which will help to develop a normal functioning immune system for the rest of their lives as they rid themselves of these old stored toxins they received from their mother.
Due to the vaccines the children get nowadays, it is quite rare that they would get even one of these diseases, which means that the children are not only holding onto the toxins they received from their mothers, but then they have the added layer of toxins acquired from their intense vaccine schedules which can disturb their immune systems, creating food allergies and sensitivities, eczema, asthma, headaches, digestive disturbance, learning disabilities and autoimmune diseases.
This makes it imperative that the mother undergo deep and profound Ayurvedic cleansing under the direction of an Ayurvedic practitioner who can monitor her through the cleansing process — some of the routines are daily, some weekly, some seasonal, and some done especially in the spring and the fall, the two best seasons to cleanse. This way the babies don’t start out their lives with such a high toxic load.
It is also important that she eats a balanced, clean and nourishing diet at least a year before conceiving, which also decreases her toxic load.
Now, toxins can be physical, as just described, and also mental. So it is important that the mother do some work mentally, emotionally and spiritually since she actually has more influence on the developing baby’s personality than the husband does.
Let me explain what I mean by that last statement.
Each parent gives up roughly half of their DNA to the child: 50% from the mother (through an egg) and 50% from the father (through his sperm). But the reason the mother has more of an influence on the child’s personality is because while she is carrying her baby she receives the vibrational information from her baby and the baby receives vibrational information from her.
This is why women will crave different types of food with each pregnancy. I remember I craved mangoes when I was pregnant with my son and grapefruit when I was pregnant with my daughter. It turns out my son loves mangoes — we took so many pictures of him eating mangoes when he was in his high chair as a baby, and my daughter to this day craves all the citrus fruits — lemons, grapefruits, and oranges.
Vaidya Mishra told me that when the women in his village were pregnant and had a desire for a food, everyone in the village would rush that food over to her, trying to meet the desires of the unborn baby, so that the baby would be born satisfied and happy.
But it works in reverse as well. The ancient text books said it was important that women avoid negativity when pregnant — which in this modern day means don’t get involved in arguments, walk away from negative situations and don’t watch scary movies while pregnant. The emotions of anger and fear can get transmitted to the baby in much the same way that the baby is sending you signals of the foods they would like.
So the year before pregnancy you should not only detoxify physically but emotionally as well. In whatever ways work best for you: using meditation, prayer, chanting, psychological counseling or therapy — try to get your mind and body in order so you can create a mentally, physically and spiritually balanced blissful baby.
The ancient doctors said even the moment of conception was extremely important that both the husband and wife were in a blissful state of mind — they went so far as to say to avoid sexual contact if there was a loud scary thunderstorm going on or bad weather, which would create fear in the minds of the potential parents and be transmitted into the developing embryo.
They said both parents should bathe, use some herbs or essential oils to create a pleasant fragrance — sprinkle some flowers on the bed, use fresh bed linens and express deep love and devotion towards your partner so that pure love is flowing at the moment of conception.
They said the best time to conceive is during the Brahma Muhurta time of day. Muhurta is a Sanskrit term or a period of time equivalent to 48 minutes; Brahma means “sacred” or “holy” and is also the name of the creator, or God. Brahma Muhurta therefore means the “time of Brahma,” or “sacred time” when it is most beneficial to practice yoga, meditate or to worship.
Roughly speaking Brahma muhurta begins 96 minutes or two muhurtas before sunrise and ends 48 minutes (one muhurta) before the sun rises. The exact time of Brahma muhurta can vary by tradition, though, with some describing it as the last 3 hours of nighttime. This is the time of day when the mind is calm and serene after a good night’s sleep and there is a preponderance of sattva or purity, not only in the mind, but in nature as well, since the elements in nature, known as Soma, Agni and Marut (the vibration from the moon, sun and the movement of these energies), collectively called Prana, are also balanced at this time.
By conceiving a baby with a clear, rested blissful mind, free of negativity after doing a year’s worth of mental, emotional and physical cleansing, balancing that with a healthy, happy and blissful pregnancy you are doing everything you can to ensure a happy, healthy well-balanced child.
I hope you found this information useful as you begin planning for a child — by following these guidelines you can not only prevent a problematic pregnancy, but you can also give your baby the best possible chance to begin life as healthy as possible, free from environmental, physical and emotional toxins and the health problems these toxins could create.
Thank you,

Did you know that…
MAGNESIUM helps with calcium levels in your body, regulates your stress hormones and adrenal glands, and plays a major role in our daily lives? Low levels of calcium are the root cause behind a wide range of clinical chronic conditions. While oral magnesium supplementation can have its down sides and side-effects, transdermal absorption of magnesium is safe and highly effective over long term.
Conditions Caused by Magnesium deficiency
Low levels of magnesium can result in many conditions, namely:
— cramping of the muscles, leading to
—heartbeat arrhythmia
— painful menstrual cycles
— calf muscle pain (“Charlie horses”)
— twitching of the eyelids
But not just that. here is a list of chronic conditions associated with low or depleted levels of magnesium:
Adrenal fatigue – adrenaline, noradrenaline and cortisol deplete magnesium. Stress is a big factor for adrenal fatigue. Stress causes excess elimination of magnesium through urine
Alzheimer’s – Magnesium guards the external layer of the cells, not allowing heavy metals to enter
Angina – The pain of angina is caused by severe muscle spasm in heart muscles, is caused by magnesium deficiency. The heart ventricles have the highest levels of magnesium in the whole body, which is why magnesium is so important for the pumping function of the heart.
Anxiety and Panic Attacks – When the adrenals are no longer protected by sufficient magnesium, the flight-or-flight hormones adrenaline and noradrenalin become more easily triggered. When they surge erratically, they cause a rapid pulse, high blood pressure and heart palpitations.
Asthma – Histamine production and bronchial spasms (in the smooth muscles of the bronchial tract) both increase as a result of magnesium deficiency. Magnesium is a great broncho-dilator.
Atherosclerosis with calcium deposits. Magnesium is necessary to help dissolve calcium and keep it soluble in the bloodstream.
Depression – Serotonin, which elevates mood, is dependent on magnesium.
Detoxification – Magnesium is crucial for removal of toxins and heavy metals from the body. Magnesium is a co-factor in the production of glutathione and the function of the P450 detoxification systems in the liver.
Diabetes – Magnesium enhances insulin secretion and allows insulin to transfer glucose into the cells. Otherwise, glucose and insulin build up in the blood causing various types of tissue damage.
Headaches – Prevents muscle tension in neck and head muscles when applied locally. Also prevents spasms of the muscles in the walls of the arteries which triggers headaches.
High Blood Pressure – With low magnesium and too much calcium, the muscles in blood vessels can go into spasm and cause high blood pressure.
Hardening of the arteries – as acid toxins build up (ama visha and gar visha), they create inflammation in the wall of the arteries. If calcium is high and magnesium is low, the calcium can deposit in the arterial wall, creating hardening or plaque.
Inflammation – Calcium is extremely pro-inflammatory and magnesium is anti-inflammatory. Must keep a balance between calcium and magnesium. It is not recommended to take calcium supplements – they remain stuck in the channel, and if magnesium is low this can create inflammation and other problems like hardening of the arteries and heart attacks.
Osteoporosis – Calcium cannot build bones without magnesium. Calcium alone makes bones brittle (like chalk breaking as it hits the floor). Magnesium makes the bones flexible and resistant to shattering. Most people have too much calcium and not enough magnesium. Put a calcium supplement in a glass of water and it sits there. Add magnesium and it breaks down.
Magnesium is a co-factor for ATP production. ATP, created in mitochondria, is main source of energy in our cells. ATP must be bound to magnesium in order to be active. ATP is made in each of the 100 trillion cells in our body
For purposes of cellular detoxification and tissue purification, the most effective form of magnesium is magnesium chloride. Has a strong excretory effect on toxins stuck in the tissues of the body, drawing them out through the pores of the skin. Magnesium chloride, when applied transdermally increases DHEA. DHEA is the “mother of all hormones.” DHEA is a steroid hormone produced by the adrenal glands and the ovaries. DHEA is converted in the body into several different steroid hormones – estrogen, testosterone and other hormones as needed
Magnesium is a required co-factor for over 800 enzyme systems in our bodies. 3,751 receptor sites for magnesium have been found on human proteins. Magnesium is a requirement for RNA and DNA production. Magnesium is a co-factor involved in transporting hormones like adrenaline into the cells because the hormones can’t pass through the cell membranes by themselves

I hope you found this information useful as you begin planning for a child — by following these guidelines you can not only prevent a problematic pregnancy, but you can also give your baby the best possible chance to begin life as healthy as possible, free from environmental, physical and emotional toxins and the health problems these toxins could create.
Thank you,

Did you know that…
MAGNESIUM helps with calcium levels in your body, regulates your stress hormones and adrenal glands, and plays a major role in our daily lives? Low levels of calcium are the root cause behind a wide range of clinical chronic conditions. While oral magnesium supplementation can have its down sides and side-effects, transdermal absorption of magnesium is safe and highly effective over long term.
Conditions Caused by Magnesium deficiency
Low levels of magnesium can result in many conditions, namely:
— cramping of the muscles, leading to
—heartbeat arrhythmia
— painful menstrual cycles
— calf muscle pain (“Charlie horses”)
— twitching of the eyelids
But not just that. here is a list of chronic conditions associated with low or depleted levels of magnesium:
Adrenal fatigue – adrenaline, noradrenaline and cortisol deplete magnesium. Stress is a big factor for adrenal fatigue. Stress causes excess elimination of magnesium through urine
Alzheimer’s – Magnesium guards the external layer of the cells, not allowing heavy metals to enter
Angina – The pain of angina is caused by severe muscle spasm in heart muscles, is caused by magnesium deficiency. The heart ventricles have the highest levels of magnesium in the whole body, which is why magnesium is so important for the pumping function of the heart.
Anxiety and Panic Attacks – When the adrenals are no longer protected by sufficient magnesium, the flight-or-flight hormones adrenaline and noradrenalin become more easily triggered. When they surge erratically, they cause a rapid pulse, high blood pressure and heart palpitations.
Asthma – Histamine production and bronchial spasms (in the smooth muscles of the bronchial tract) both increase as a result of magnesium deficiency. Magnesium is a great broncho-dilator.
Atherosclerosis with calcium deposits. Magnesium is necessary to help dissolve calcium and keep it soluble in the bloodstream.
Depression – Serotonin, which elevates mood, is dependent on magnesium.
Detoxification – Magnesium is crucial for removal of toxins and heavy metals from the body. Magnesium is a co-factor in the production of glutathione and the function of the P450 detoxification systems in the liver.
Diabetes – Magnesium enhances insulin secretion and allows insulin to transfer glucose into the cells. Otherwise, glucose and insulin build up in the blood causing various types of tissue damage.
Headaches – Prevents muscle tension in neck and head muscles when applied locally. Also prevents spasms of the muscles in the walls of the arteries which triggers headaches.
High Blood Pressure – With low magnesium and too much calcium, the muscles in blood vessels can go into spasm and cause high blood pressure.
Hardening of the arteries – as acid toxins build up (ama visha and gar visha), they create inflammation in the wall of the arteries. If calcium is high and magnesium is low, the calcium can deposit in the arterial wall, creating hardening or plaque.
Inflammation – Calcium is extremely pro-inflammatory and magnesium is anti-inflammatory. Must keep a balance between calcium and magnesium. It is not recommended to take calcium supplements – they remain stuck in the channel, and if magnesium is low this can create inflammation and other problems like hardening of the arteries and heart attacks.
Osteoporosis – Calcium cannot build bones without magnesium. Calcium alone makes bones brittle (like chalk breaking as it hits the floor). Magnesium makes the bones flexible and resistant to shattering. Most people have too much calcium and not enough magnesium. Put a calcium supplement in a glass of water and it sits there. Add magnesium and it breaks down.
Magnesium is a co-factor for ATP production. ATP, created in mitochondria, is main source of energy in our cells. ATP must be bound to magnesium in order to be active. ATP is made in each of the 100 trillion cells in our body
For purposes of cellular detoxification and tissue purification, the most effective form of magnesium is magnesium chloride. Has a strong excretory effect on toxins stuck in the tissues of the body, drawing them out through the pores of the skin. Magnesium chloride, when applied transdermally increases DHEA. DHEA is the “mother of all hormones.” DHEA is a steroid hormone produced by the adrenal glands and the ovaries. DHEA is converted in the body into several different steroid hormones – estrogen, testosterone and other hormones as needed
Magnesium is a required co-factor for over 800 enzyme systems in our bodies. 3,751 receptor sites for magnesium have been found on human proteins. Magnesium is a requirement for RNA and DNA production. Magnesium is a co-factor involved in transporting hormones like adrenaline into the cells because the hormones can’t pass through the cell membranes by themselves

Dealing with EMF Toxicity
“I became aware of my EMF hypersensitivity after returning to the US from South Africa. Upon my return to the States in 2011, I took up the position that I had previously held in law enforcement. That meant I was carrying two cell phones on me, as well as having to be near high-tech equipment for sometimes 24 hours a day!
I started feeling the effects: buzzing in my head, ringing in my ears, nausea, feeling hyper, sleep disruptions and more. My body began to put on weight with high inflammation.
With these experiences, I traced back what was different in the U.S. from South Africa. The answer was clear: there was more advanced technology in the US.
I then began to ground myself to the earth and began my journey to understand how I could support my body, mind, and emotional health. This led me to Ayurvedic support and it has been a God-sent. The first Ayurvedic Doctor I found who addressed this issue was Vaidya Mishra. Dr. Raskin has been trained under Vaidya and is very keen at identifying the proper Ayurvedic protocol for me.
I started with Dr. Raskin in November of 2023 and now it is June 2024. I’ve noticed a big difference in how I feel mentally, spiritually and physically.
I was hypersensitive to EMF’s: RF’s and dirty electricity and all of that. She has put me on a protocol that has been very easy and gentle, which my system requires.
Another thing is that Dr. Raskin listens to you. She adapts her protocol based on the information you give and all of the knowledge that she has with Ayurveda.
We have made great leaps and bounds together.
I used to be able to only go out of the house without WiFi about once a week. I have been able to go out several times a week now for short times.
I have better sleep, my digestion has improved.
There are a number of issues with my health history that she has adapted the protocol to assist and improve which was a plus for me, not only for the hypersensitive issues but the other areas on my life that I needed to improve and have better health.
I think the package that Dr Raskin offers is beneficial and you’d get a lot more out of it than if you were to go to, say, an allopathic doctor which might….I am not against that…but that has not been beneficial to my life. I have to do things with Nature, plants, those things that we were given to nourish our bodies and support our bodies and then at times heal our bodies. SO those are the tools that Dr. Raskin uses and it works for me! I am so grateful to have found her.”
Mary-Jo P.
We asked Dr Raskin what SVA EMF protocols were used to help her client? She responded.
Dr Raskin: before one can begin healing from an EMF injury, the source of the EMFs that caused the injury must be removed. That is a whole other topic that I can address at length separately. But it is a most critical point.
When helping someone heal from an EMF issue, I like to start by examining lab tests that can indicate EMF issues or EMF sensitivity. With this specific patient, we also looked at her genetics to see if there were any indications of impaired detox, etc. We discovered that it was important for her to use Guduchi with Glutathione.
She had other health issues that we decided to work on as well: we addressed her gut, her liver and her bone marrow. Slowly. Gently as we all do with SV Ayurveda. And we supported her adrenals, thyroid and histamine response specifically – this is often important with EMF injury – all with Vaidya’s wonderful Herbal Memory Drops. The drops are adapted to each individual’s unique needs.
Transdermal Support was also very important. I believe EMF exposure can severely deplete our magnesium stores. And of course DGL and wonderful Prana Flow that supports the evacuation of used-up corrupt prana from the system. And Vata with Vitamin D and Magnesium Massage Oil, because EMFs cause extremely deranged Vata on so many levels…
And Vaidya Mishra’s blessed Samadhi Set which helped the client tremendously.
We had to go very slowly, sometimes adding things one-at-a-time as she was EXTREMELY sensitive at first to any change, to anything new that was introduced. But we made it to a place where she felt much better and stable.
She also loves the nadi cleansing oils: Ida and Pingala, Karna and Maha Marma.
Next I will instruct her in practicing home marma massage, this will give her a further leap.
In the big picture, I feel that it is ALL important. Yes, if you swipe the spine with Prana Flow and use the nadi clearing oils, you will definitely get some relief, but to address REAL INJURY from EMFs you need a whole protocol. And we have that! Vaidya Mishra gave us the full protocol. And I am so very grateful, so are the patients. Let’s put the word out there…
WHAT IS PRANA?
WHY IS IT
THE BEST MAHARASAYANA?
“When asked, many people say they know what the word prana is — that it is the life energy which keeps us alive.
One thing I love about Ayurveda is that it always goes way beyond the superficial meanings, and instead gives us an in-depth understanding of these very deep principles.
While yes, we can say that prana is indeed the life energy that keeps us alive, we can take it one step further and state that it also keeps our cells intelligent — to know what hormone or neurotransmitter to release and when to release it — giving our cells the intelligence to communicate with each other. Like sending hundreds of text messages to all parts of the body so the whole body is aware of what each cell needs at each moment in time.
Did you ever think how these processes occur in the first place? Where does this intelligence come from which oversees all these processes and multiple layers of communication?
These processes are controlled by prana — it’s just that you can’t see it because it is vibrational. So where does prana come from?
From the deepest silence, known as the Aditattwa, it begins to manifest into the Tritattwa — known as Soma, Agni and Marut. Soma is the cooling lunar energy, the water and earth elements. Agni is the hot solar energy, the fire element, and Marut is the space and air element. The space element is what gives our cells the intelligence to perform all their functions and the air element moves the Soma and Agni throughout the body since they can’t move on their own.

What about Electric Vehicles?
I am often asked about EMFs in cars. Most people I talk to seem to think that the EMFs coming from electric cars are far more dangerous than those coming from gas powered cars. That is not true. The fact is they both can have a negative impact on our bodies and our health though for different reasons. There are 4 different types of man-made EMFs that can harm us:
1) high frequency (RF) radiation from cellphones, wi-fi, bluetooth, etc.
2) magnetic fields from AC current,
3) electric fields from AC voltage and
4) dirty electricity which is higher frequencies riding on AC power lines.
In newer cars, the RF radiation is equally bad in electric cars, hybrids and gas powered cars because of all the newer wireless devices being used. The solution there is to buy older cars that were made before the wireless revolution happened.
Magnetic fields are far worse in gas powered cars particularly in the front driver and passenger compartments by the feet area. There are almost none in electric cars and only in hybrids when they are being powered by their gas engine instead of their batteries. They are also very difficult and costly to shield from.
AC electric fields cause the least issues in any type of car because with a mixture of Direct Current (DC) and Alternating Current (AC) in the wires, cars have very different electrical systems than in our homes, where we only have 120 Volt (and 240 Volt) AC. AC electric fields are generally not a problem for EHS people in cars.
However, AC electric fields in electric and hybrid cars at higher frequencies, which is in fact dirty electricity, do bother people.
Summary
If you are highly sensitive to EMFs (EHS), it is best to avoid electric or hybrid cars altogether because of higher levels of dirty electricity and look for an older model gas powered car with the lowest magnetic fields (near the gas petal) and built before Wi-Fi and Bluetooth were added. If you are not EHS, it is probably more worth your time to focus on reducing EMFs in your home, particularly in the bedroom(s) so your sleep helps your body to build maximum protection against all types of toxins.
EMFs in cars is a much more complex topic then I am able to cover here. If you have more questions or want to go into more detail contact me via my website:

Magnesium makes the bones flexible and resistant to shattering. Most people have too much calcium and not enough magnesium. Put a calcium supplement in a glass of water and it sits there. Add magnesium and it breaks down.
Magnesium is a co-factor for ATP production. ATP, created in mitochondria, is main source of energy in our cells. ATP must be bound to magnesium in order to be active. ATP is made in each of the 100 trillion cells in our body
For purposes of cellular detoxification and tissue purification, the most effective form of magnesium is magnesium chloride. Has a strong excretory effect on toxins stuck in the tissues of the body, drawing them out through the pores of the skin. Magnesium chloride, when applied transdermally increases DHEA. DHEA is the “mother of all hormones.” DHEA is a steroid hormone produced by the adrenal glands and the ovaries. DHEA is converted in the body into several different steroid hormones – estrogen, testosterone and other hormones as needed
Magnesium is a required co-factor for over 800 enzyme systems in our bodies. 3,751 receptor sites for magnesium have been found on human proteins. Magnesium is a requirement for RNA and DNA production. Magnesium is a co-factor involved in transporting hormones like adrenaline into the cells because the hormones can’t pass through the cell membranes by themselves

Dealing with EMF Toxicity
“I became aware of my EMF hypersensitivity after returning to the US from South Africa. Upon my return to the States in 2011, I took up the position that I had previously held in law enforcement. That meant I was carrying two cell phones on me, as well as having to be near high-tech equipment for sometimes 24 hours a day!
I started feeling the effects: buzzing in my head, ringing in my ears, nausea, feeling hyper, sleep disruptions and more. My body began to put on weight with high inflammation.
With these experiences, I traced back what was different in the U.S. from South Africa. The answer was clear: there was more advanced technology in the US.
I then began to ground myself to the earth and began my journey to understand how I could support my body, mind, and emotional health. This led me to Ayurvedic support and it has been a God-sent. The first Ayurvedic Doctor I found who addressed this issue was Vaidya Mishra. Dr. Raskin has been trained under Vaidya and is very keen at identifying the proper Ayurvedic protocol for me.
I started with Dr. Raskin in November of 2023 and now it is June 2024. I’ve noticed a big difference in how I feel mentally, spiritually and physically.
I was hypersensitive to EMF’s: RF’s and dirty electricity and all of that. She has put me on a protocol that has been very easy and gentle, which my system requires.
Another thing is that Dr. Raskin listens to you. She adapts her protocol based on the information you give and all of the knowledge that she has with Ayurveda.
We have made great leaps and bounds together.
I used to be able to only go out of the house without WiFi about once a week. I have been able to go out several times a week now for short times.
I have better sleep, my digestion has improved.
There are a number of issues with my health history that she has adapted the protocol to assist and improve which was a plus for me, not only for the hypersensitive issues but the other areas on my life that I needed to improve and have better health.
I think the package that Dr Raskin offers is beneficial and you’d get a lot more out of it than if you were to go to, say, an allopathic doctor which might….I am not against that…but that has not been beneficial to my life. I have to do things with Nature, plants, those things that we were given to nourish our bodies and support our bodies and then at times heal our bodies. SO those are the tools that Dr. Raskin uses and it works for me! I am so grateful to have found her.”
Mary-Jo P.
We asked Dr Raskin what SVA EMF protocols were used to help her client? She responded.
Dr Raskin: before one can begin healing from an EMF injury, the source of the EMFs that caused the injury must be removed. That is a whole other topic that I can address at length separately. But it is a most critical point.
When helping someone heal from an EMF issue, I like to start by examining lab tests that can indicate EMF issues or EMF sensitivity. With this specific patient, we also looked at her genetics to see if there were any indications of impaired detox, etc. We discovered that it was important for her to use Guduchi with Glutathione.
She had other health issues that we decided to work on as well: we addressed her gut, her liver and her bone marrow. Slowly. Gently as we all do with SV Ayurveda. And we supported her adrenals, thyroid and histamine response specifically – this is often important with EMF injury – all with Vaidya’s wonderful Herbal Memory Drops. The drops are adapted to each individual’s unique needs.
Transdermal Support was also very important. I believe EMF exposure can severely deplete our magnesium stores. And of course DGL and wonderful Prana Flow that supports the evacuation of used-up corrupt prana from the system. And Vata with Vitamin D and Magnesium Massage Oil, because EMFs cause extremely deranged Vata on so many levels…
And Vaidya Mishra’s blessed Samadhi Set which helped the client tremendously.
We had to go very slowly, sometimes adding things one-at-a-time as she was EXTREMELY sensitive at first to any change, to anything new that was introduced. But we made it to a place where she felt much better and stable.
She also loves the nadi cleansing oils: Ida and Pingala, Karna and Maha Marma.
Next I will instruct her in practicing home marma massage, this will give her a further leap.
In the big picture, I feel that it is ALL important. Yes, if you swipe the spine with Prana Flow and use the nadi clearing oils, you will definitely get some relief, but to address REAL INJURY from EMFs you need a whole protocol. And we have that! Vaidya Mishra gave us the full protocol. And I am so very grateful, so are the patients. Let’s put the word out there…
WHAT IS PRANA?
WHY IS IT
THE BEST MAHARASAYANA?
“When asked, many people say they know what the word prana is — that it is the life energy which keeps us alive.
One thing I love about Ayurveda is that it always goes way beyond the superficial meanings, and instead gives us an in-depth understanding of these very deep principles.
While yes, we can say that prana is indeed the life energy that keeps us alive, we can take it one step further and state that it also keeps our cells intelligent — to know what hormone or neurotransmitter to release and when to release it — giving our cells the intelligence to communicate with each other. Like sending hundreds of text messages to all parts of the body so the whole body is aware of what each cell needs at each moment in time.
Did you ever think how these processes occur in the first place? Where does this intelligence come from which oversees all these processes and multiple layers of communication?
These processes are controlled by prana — it’s just that you can’t see it because it is vibrational. So where does prana come from?
From the deepest silence, known as the Aditattwa, it begins to manifest into the Tritattwa — known as Soma, Agni and Marut. Soma is the cooling lunar energy, the water and earth elements. Agni is the hot solar energy, the fire element, and Marut is the space and air element. The space element is what gives our cells the intelligence to perform all their functions and the air element moves the Soma and Agni throughout the body since they can’t move on their own.

What about Electric Vehicles?
I am often asked about EMFs in cars. Most people I talk to seem to think that the EMFs coming from electric cars are far more dangerous than those coming from gas powered cars. That is not true. The fact is they both can have a negative impact on our bodies and our health though for different reasons. There are 4 different types of man-made EMFs that can harm us:
1) high frequency (RF) radiation from cellphones, wi-fi, bluetooth, etc.
2) magnetic fields from AC current,
3) electric fields from AC voltage and
4) dirty electricity which is higher frequencies riding on AC power lines.
In newer cars, the RF radiation is equally bad in electric cars, hybrids and gas powered cars because of all the newer wireless devices being used. The solution there is to buy older cars that were made before the wireless revolution happened.
Magnetic fields are far worse in gas powered cars particularly in the front driver and passenger compartments by the feet area. There are almost none in electric cars and only in hybrids when they are being powered by their gas engine instead of their batteries. They are also very difficult and costly to shield from.
AC electric fields cause the least issues in any type of car because with a mixture of Direct Current (DC) and Alternating Current (AC) in the wires, cars have very different electrical systems than in our homes, where we only have 120 Volt (and 240 Volt) AC. AC electric fields are generally not a problem for EHS people in cars.
However, AC electric fields in electric and hybrid cars at higher frequencies, which is in fact dirty electricity, do bother people.
Summary
If you are highly sensitive to EMFs (EHS), it is best to avoid electric or hybrid cars altogether because of higher levels of dirty electricity and look for an older model gas powered car with the lowest magnetic fields (near the gas petal) and built before Wi-Fi and Bluetooth were added. If you are not EHS, it is probably more worth your time to focus on reducing EMFs in your home, particularly in the bedroom(s) so your sleep helps your body to build maximum protection against all types of toxins.
EMFs in cars is a much more complex topic then I am able to cover here. If you have more questions or want to go into more detail contact me via my website:
Can’t Sleep? Feeling Excessively Anxious? Can’t Focus? Depressed and Lethargic? Forgetful? Muscle Cramps? Chronic Back Pain? Craving too much Chocolate? Magnesium, transdermally, Might Just Be All you Need!
Did you know that…
MAGNESIUM helps with calcium levels in your body, regulates your stress hormones and adrenal glands, and plays a major role in our daily lives? Low levels of calcium are the root cause behind a wide range of clinical chronic conditions. While oral magnesium supplementation can have its down sides and side-effects, transdermal absorption of magnesium is safe and highly effective over long term.
Conditions Caused by Magnesium deficiency
Low levels of magnesium can result in many conditions, namely:
— cramping of the muscles, leading to
—heartbeat arrhythmia
— painful menstrual cycles
— calf muscle pain (“Charlie horses”)
— twitching of the eyelids
But not just that. here is a list of chronic conditions associated with low or depleted levels of magnesium:
Adrenal fatigue – adrenaline, noradrenaline and cortisol deplete magnesium. Stress is a big factor for adrenal fatigue. Stress causes excess elimination of magnesium through urine
Alzheimer’s – Magnesium guards the external layer of the cells, not allowing heavy metals to enter
Angina – The pain of angina is caused by severe muscle spasm in heart muscles, is caused by magnesium deficiency. The heart ventricles have the highest levels of magnesium in the whole body, which is why magnesium is so important for the pumping function of the heart.
Anxiety and Panic Attacks – When the adrenals are no longer protected by sufficient magnesium, the flight-or-flight hormones adrenaline and noradrenalin become more easily triggered. When they surge erratically, they cause a rapid pulse, high blood pressure and heart palpitations.
Asthma – Histamine production and bronchial spasms (in the smooth muscles of the bronchial tract) both increase as a result of magnesium deficiency. Magnesium is a great broncho-dilator.
Atherosclerosis with calcium deposits. Magnesium is necessary to help dissolve calcium and keep it soluble in the bloodstream.
Depression – Serotonin, which elevates mood, is dependent on magnesium.
Detoxification – Magnesium is crucial for removal of toxins and heavy metals from the body. Magnesium is a co-factor in the production of glutathione and the function of the P450 detoxification systems in the liver.
Diabetes – Magnesium enhances insulin secretion and allows insulin to transfer glucose into the cells. Otherwise, glucose and insulin build up in the blood causing various types of tissue damage.
Headaches – Prevents muscle tension in neck and head muscles when applied locally. Also prevents spasms of the muscles in the walls of the arteries which triggers headaches.
High Blood Pressure – With low magnesium and too much calcium, the muscles in blood vessels can go into spasm and cause high blood pressure.
Hardening of the arteries – as acid toxins build up (ama visha and gar visha), they create inflammation in the wall of the arteries. If calcium is high and magnesium is low, the calcium can deposit in the arterial wall, creating hardening or plaque.
Inflammation – Calcium is extremely pro-inflammatory and magnesium is anti-inflammatory. Must keep a balance between calcium and magnesium. It is not recommended to take calcium supplements – they remain stuck in the channel, and if magnesium is low this can create inflammation and other problems like hardening of the arteries and heart attacks.
Osteoporosis – Calcium cannot build bones without magnesium. Calcium alone makes bones brittle (like chalk breaking as it hits the floor). Magnesium makes the bones flexible and resistant to shattering. Most people have too much calcium and not enough magnesium. Put a calcium supplement in a glass of water and it sits there. Add magnesium and it breaks down.
Magnesium is a co-factor for ATP production. ATP, created in mitochondria, is main source of energy in our cells. ATP must be bound to magnesium in order to be active. ATP is made in each of the 100 trillion cells in our body
