From Tech Burnout to EMF Experts: How We Reclaimed Our Health

Eight years ago, I sold computers for a living. I spent ten years immersed in technology, watching the industry evolve toward cloud computing, near-field communications, and the Internet of Things. I stayed up all night burning out on screens and video games, convinced this technology would advance civilization. My health crashed. I gained weight, my sleep deteriorated, and my mood followed.

Then I married Bodana.

Our honeymoon became a nightmare—not the marriage, but what Bodana experienced. She hit rock bottom. She couldn’t stop crying. She felt her life spinning out of control. We were newly married, and she couldn’t contain her emotions.

The backstory: Bodana had been on Paxil for 14 years. Her doctor prescribed it in her early 20s after she started experiencing depression while on birth control pills. She got a double dose of Rockefeller medicine—the pill destroyed her hormonal balance, then SSRIs masked the symptoms. When she tried to quit before our wedding, nobody warned her about withdrawal. She went through severe SSRI withdrawal, one of the worst experiences a person can face.

Her psychiatrist initially misdiagnosed her withdrawal as a mixed mood disorder. They added lithium, sleep medication, and anxiety drugs. She ended up on a cocktail of psychiatric medications, all because she tried to quit an SSRI she’d been taking since her early 20s.

The standard medical approach failed. So we looked at alternatives—starting with the most basic: sunlight.

We began walking outside every day in January in Ontario. Dark, bleak January. Bodana trudged along while I pushed and pulled her. We did it anyway. The circadian rhythm and light reset something fundamental. It took time, but we saw improvements.

Once we noticed those changes, I started investigating the invisible aspects of light. What was Wi-Fi doing? I unplugged our router. Then I took it further—we started turning off power to our house at night using the circuit breaker. Everything except the fridge and freezer. Later, we moved the fridge outside, and even the main fridge tolerates the power cuts if you crank the temperature cold enough before cutting power.

This became our foundation. We call ourselves “The Power Couple”—we help others power on with light and power off at night.

Bodana’s recovery took two and a half years. She tapered off everything slowly and carefully. July 22, 2019 became her rebirth date—the day she had nothing in her system. She hasn’t taken anything since.
