David got on a spiritual path very early in life.
By the time he was 20 years old he was already meditating as part of a yoga-meditation group, teaching yoga classes, vegetarian, and studying different forms of alternative healing.
He had various jobs where he was running a publishing company and editing magazines but one day David and his wife decided to quit their jobs and move to a beautiful 40-acre property on the edge of a large ranch in Northern California.
They were spending time on the land, getting to know the trees, the rocks, the animals, tuning in to the intelligence of nature and diving into a deep healing journey.
David was so entranced with the rocks and the trees he began to take photographs, and Bonnie, his wife, started to create some collage art.
They realized as they were developing these, that they were really beautiful and they seemed to transmit the energy of nature in a wonderful way.
“Our friends would look at them and go, ‘Wow, these are really beautiful but they’re also powerful. There’s some energy coming through the images’.”
David began to understand that they were capturing the healing energy of nature in a kind of concentrated form and able to put that into a form that could be reproduced.
They showed some of the images to a friend who had connections in the publishing world and within no time they were launched into a 15 year publishing deal that enabled them to share their work around the world.
At one point they moved to Florida for a few years to take care of Bonnie’s mom.
It was while there that they met a wonderful naturopathic practitioner who started talking to them about the health effects of electromagnetic fields (EMFs).
“He came to our home with an EMF meter. He took some readings. He talked to us about WiFi. He talked to us about mobile phone radiation. So we got rid of the WiFi and the mobile phones.”
One day he asked his naturopath for his best advice for someone who is concerned about EMFs.
His naturopath replied, “raise the vibration of your body to a level that you’re no longer as affected by these fields”.
For the next few years this advice became David’s guiding light as he studied EMFs.
And this is what led to David’s work with the ancient Redwood forest in Northern California.
Over the last few years David has developed some very specific tools from the Redwoods, a kind of nature based EMF protection and some meditative practices that help us reconnect with the intelligence of nature.
For my next interview I’m delighted to welcome evolutionary teacher, healer and visionary artist David Sun Todd.
