The term Geopathic Stress  is used to describe negative energies, also known as harmful Earth rays. Earth energies can be good, bad or neutral, which can affect the health of all living well-being.  The negative energies or radiations emitted from under the Earth's surface, has shown to disturb the structural and functional composition of live cells or molecules within a living organism ( humans, animals, plants, etc.). The majority of molecules in our body consist of water molecules. The molecular cell functioning and health of the water molecule is relied on it’s surrounding environment. The amalgamation of the cellular water structure and the surrounding negative electromagnetic energies in conclusion result in a weakened molecular structure and therefore depleting the frequency of the living organism. The frequency or the  Aura (electro-magnetic energy field) of the living being, become unhealthy from prolonged exposure to the Earth's radiations. Sleeping or spending lengthened time in Geopathic Stress zones, can have ill affects on the health performance and well being.  For human and living beings, the gradual fatigue can accumulate over time until the immune system is inhibited and becomes more susceptible to illnesses.

Recent studies and research carried out in various parts of the World have resulted in identifying the Geopathic Stress in buidlings. The harmful atmosphere in a building is referred to, “The Sick Building Syndrome (SBS),  which is recognized by the World Health Organization. WHO has recognized SBS for more then 30 years and estimates around 60% of offices, hotels, institutions and industrial premises consist of SBS, which refers to the fact that illness can be due to working or staying in a sick building. Initially, it was thought that inadequate ventilation and improper air conditioning as well as poor air quality were responsible for the illness of the staff. Even after rectification of all these defects, the problem in all sick buildings still remained strong. Studies and knowledge of Geopathic Stress is gaining advancements in the World of health.

Geopathic Stress has been accepted as a possible phenomenon and it has been acknowledged by several Scientists and researchers in the World. Their studies claimed that the electromagnetic spectrum with the frequency of the Earth waves, resonate and can affect certain energy fields, which have a negative bearing on health and happiness of an individual. The western Scientists and researchers also believe that some other types of harmful radiations can pervade the buildings and can cause many unexplained diseases including cancer.

The research on Geopathic Stress was first initiated in 1920 by Winzer and Melzer in Germany. A link between cancer and Geopathic Stress zones, was established by a study conducted on thousands of inhabitants. Several Scientists have researched Geopathic Stress in Germany, France, Austria, and many other parts of the World. Geopathic Stress or Earth energies are believed to originate from several sources, such as the radiation from the Earth's magnetic field (forces created due to movement of plates inside the Earth), and forces due to the flow of underground streams and so on. GS can occur in any building irrespective of it's location and therefore affecting living beings (plants and animals). Modernization of technology and structure, has introduced the World to tremendous amounts of electromagnetic spectrum in various forms such as microwaves, other electronic transfer mediums and underground structures.

It was Dr. Manfred Curry, who first hypothesized that there is a grid network of electrically charged lines of natural origin encompassing the globe. These lines are flowing from northeast to southwest and southeast to northwest, at approximately 3 meters distance apart. Dr. Curry also stated that wherever the lines cross, there is a double positive or a double negative energy which can disturb the balance in a human body. The studies of Dr. Curry claim that people who sleep on positively charged ports can develop cancer and those who sleep on negatively charged ports can develop inflammatory diseases. Dr. Curry recommended that for best health and well being of a person, one should sleep only within the grid.

Dr. Hartman from Germany, discovered another kind of flow of energy lines which were running from north to south and east to west. These are called the Hartman lines and again these studies also indicate that the intersection points of the lines crossing are considered dangerous for human health.

Types of Geopathic Stress

Natural

This exposure includes telluric energy systems, earthquakes, volcanoes, plate tectonics, underground caverns, underground water channels, black streams, ley-lines, Curry & Hartman lines grids, and certain mineral deposits etc.

The super imposing Hartman lines on the Curry lines lead to many areas that are criss-crossing each other and are capable of creating ports which are potentially more powerful than those that arise from the intersection of two lines in any of the grids. Geopathic stress is distinguished apart from the Curry and Hartman lines as spirals of energy that can be emanating from a single point of the Earth's periphery or from inside a building which are popularly called evolving sperm.

Ley Lines

Ley lines are straight over ground energy lines, which mirror large under ground water currents. Houses built on ley lines can become a havoc for all manner of disturbances.

Ley Lines are formed when stone like structures lie in a line. Any building, containing stones that have been cut, hammered, modified etc. allow the stones to get charged with radiation and the structure becomes a negative energy centre. The energy of the Ley lines are believed to radiate a distance of upto 25 miles.

When several structures like this are placed in a line, they can form a stronger energy centre with more power. This energy circulates in straight lines from one structure to another, which are called by-lines. Ley lines can be effectively used to block negative interference entering the building when such phenomena is suspected. On the same note, dressed stone structures should never be used for dwelling purposes. A survey revealed that people who live in dressed stone structures, expose themselves  to a wrong energy field suffering from ill health and ill luck. Dressed stones give off negative energy, and therefore it is best to avoid them in construction. This does not apply to facade and foundation stones, as they lay buried under Earth.

Man Made

Apart from the Earth’s natural disruptions, there are man-made structures that can produce detrimental negative energy fields. Some examples of man-made structures are railways, motorway cuttings, embankments, bridges, quarries, tunnels, mines and underground bunkers, steel pilings, metal fences post, road sign stakes, buried gas, electricity, water mains, and sewers can disrupt Schumann Resonance and cause GS. Certain types of building foundations and structures can be another cause of Geopathic stress.

The above are various types of subtle energy fields that exist and can influence the functioning of an organism due to the vibrations it causes.  As the human body is electrical in nature, and as the energy fields mentioned above are electromagnetic radiations, it is reasonable to suppose that the effect propagates the organism. However, nature builds a certain amount of immunity against these energy fields, just like most human being have immunity from certain bacteria and viruses. Also, if the immune system is weak then the Geopathic Stress can cause illnesses and if not taken care of, can be responsible for simple fatigue to cancer.

More Studies on Geopathic Stress

There are studies made by Scientific professionals who have proclaimed convincing evidence of detrimental causes from Geopathic Stress. There are also many studies conducted by conventional Science, that deny the existence of the Earth’s radiation.

Dr. Otto Bergmann, a lung specialist and lecturer at the University of Vienna, conducted a study between 1988 and 1989 funded by the Housing Research Fund of the Austrian Federal Ministry of Economic Affairs. The study included 985 subjects in some 6,943 investigations. It revealed that the Earth’s radiation affects our bodily functions, including pulse rate, heartbeat frequency and electrical skin resistance. Dr. Bergmann published the results in his 1990 book: Risikofaktor Standort – Rutengängerzone und Mensch (Risk Factor Location–Dowsing Zones and Man).

Dr. Rudolf Kessler and Andreas Kopschina (a Naturopath and Geo-Pathologist) conducted a study of 52 patients in 1992, for which they received a research grant from the Association of German Naturopaths . Both of their studies and an additional study by Kopschina and Daun (discussed below), clearly demonstrate that chronic or recurrent diseases have a direct correlation to the presence of Geopathic Stress in bedrooms.

The text of the study is available in German on the website of the German Professional Association of Geo-Pathologists and Building Biologists at http://www.geopathologie.de/studien/studie-1. A full translation can be obtained through Google Translate.

Medical Examination

985 people were tested and subjected to a very thorough Medical examination before and after tests. Tests included blood sedimentation, electric conduction of certain muscle points, blood pressure, heart beat breathing, skin resistance and blood circulation. The people tested, sat in a Geopathic stress area or neutral place for just 15 minutes. The harmful effect could be registered in most of people who sat in a Geopathic Stress place. One can imagine the consequences of Geopathic stress exposure accumulated over many years.

Kath Bachler Survey on 3000 School Children

95% of children having learning difficulties, bad behavior were exposed to Geopathic Stress. When moved to a Geopathic Stress free place, they nearly all showed marked improvement often from bottom to top of their classes.

In her book "Earth Radiation",  research on 11,000 people in more than 3,000 places in 14 countries. It consists of detailed records of harmful effects on Health including Cancer, Allergies, Arthritis, Insomnia, Learning Disabilities, and many other diseases. This book is a classic record of the identification and location of energies from the Earth, which are noxious to human beings and others.

• Stress clouds are negatively charged energy fields locked into certain areas (bathroom or stairs), the negative energy floats around in circles within a building bringing disease and misfortune to the members of the premises

• Frequent accidents in a particular part of the house (bathroom, stairs etc.), you can suspect GS clouds in the premises (lingering GS can be the cause of an accident within the building)

• Constant turn over of owners because no one seems to be able to settle in

• Even years after living in your home, you may realize that you have never felt comfortable in the house

• History of unexplained illnesses, such as cancer among the people who have lived in the same premises

• Light bulbs may blow out for no apparent reason

• Businesses - shops do not prosper, customers are uncomfortable on the premises due to GS

• Some shops will continually change hands or may have experienced serial bankruptcy
