question about magnets in rings
hey guys my four year old son took the magnets out of my rings last night. my husband put them back in but we arent sure if they are in there correctly. the postive sides are attracted to each other and the negative sides are attracted to each other. however the negative side and the positive side resist each other on both rings is this right? please someone let me know so that i can get them fixed back before tonight if they are not correct. thanks warrior350-6

This might be controversial, but I have a theory that polarity does not matter. The reason many people get weird results when they swap polarity may be because they are mentally aligning themselves in the opposite position, and their body also polarizes in this way. If you try them on 'blind' like in your situation, your subconscious will figure out the polarity and flip your body's alignment accordingly. In fact, you might want to swap the magnet positions from time to time anyway, otherwise you wlil get "polar-fatigue" and possibly the magnet efficacy is reduced to nil. Who knows? People's polarity flips all the time, otherwise how could you travel from north to south hemisphere or vice-versa without dying? Give it a try!

Bullshit! polarity must be correct , as alex describes, or else your health will worsen.

WARRIOR350-6 , POLARITY matters for sure.. yesterday i accidentally made a mistake by putting both rings North up > on both pinkies and MY GOD i felt sick,.. this never hardly happens to me, maybe i was tired and made that mistake. A simple way of knowing if you have them on right is to just put the rings on your pinkies then place your right PINKIE OVER the top of the LEFT PINKIE and if they go AGAINST ech other then your ok, try again by placing your RIGHT pinkie UNDER your LEFT pinkie and if they go AGAINST each other then your ALL GOOD. If you do the above and the rings ATTRACT each other then you switch the magnets around on one ring until you have them correctly. Sorry if this is confusing but thats how i do it.. :wink:

Yes all you need to know is that + repells +, - repells -, & + attracts -.

hey guys thanks a lot, when my husband and i got to looking at them we realized that they have been the wrong way since the day that i recieved them. i am hoping that, that is the reason that i have never felt anything. i will put them on tonight and see if i feel anything any different. whoever put them together in the first place had the - and the + placed in the rings wrong all along. say a little prayer for me that maybe they will work now. again thanks alot for the help. warrior350-6

In the interest of experimentation, I ask that you look away until you have finished wearing rings for a day or so. Of course if it is painful, take them off immediately. Are you done? OK LOOK: You have 50% chance of putting rings with correct polarity even with advice people gave above. Both configurations will pass the tests -- but which one is the right one, can you tell? If it turns out you put the rings on "wrong" and still felt good or even no effect, this supports theory that polarity doesn't matter. Only your brain-polarity matters. If you get bad results, it could be your brain is fossilizing, and is unable to flip polarities of your body to match the rings. Therefore, I do not recommend flipping polarity on people with alzheimer's etc... I used to think polarity mattered a lot, but then I found out that pickup devices vary in their pole configurations. I tried wearing the pickups 'right' side up, upside down, etc... It never harmed me, it is only more or less comfortable. This week I'm going to try an experiment and grip the pickups instead of strapping them, because this is the position you have with a guitar -- maybe the ROCK WILL FLOW BETTER THIS WAY??

KAMEBAZOOKA, HEY I DONT KNOW ABOUT ALL THAT BUT I KINDA AGREE WITH YOU , WHEN I FIRST RECEIVED THEM THEY WERE SWITCHED. ALTHOUGH I DIDNT FEEL ANY FLOW OF ENERGY THEY STILL MADE ME SLEEP LIKE A ROCK AND HELPED MY CARPAL TUNNEL SYNDROME. NOW LAST NIGHT AFTER THE ADVICE FROM THE OTHERS WE PUT THEM IN THE WAY ADVISED, AND I DIDNT SLEEP AS WELL BUT I DID FEEL A LOT OF TINGLING IN MY FEET AND HANDS THAT I HAD NOT FELT BEFORE THE SWITCH. STILL HELPING MY CARPAL TUNNEL THOUGH AS FAR AS I CAN TELL. SO YOU MAY BE ONTO SOMETHING. LET ME KNOW HOW IT TURNS OUT. WARRIOR350-6
