Picture
Not all persons are affected by low-level waves on the electromagnetic spectrum, all of which are forms of electromagnetic radiation.

    Goals

    Solutions to everyday stress involve identifying where we are emotionally unhappy and then taking action to correct or curb the circumstances involved. I love this kind of healing-based problem-solving and happily share for those seeking similar unique yet ubiquitous solutions. Consequently, the topics here may vary within health, lifestyle, and work/business.
