My ipod broke, my laptop broke, my iphone broke and when I say broke, I don't mean they were dropped, physically harmed etc. I mean they suddenly malfunctioned.

At work I sat with a coworker so she could train me on something and suddenly her computer was "unusually" slow and her printer was acting up. She said that never happened before.

My ex fixed my ipod and was using it, then once he gave it back to me, and I started using it suddenly wouldn't play or the screen would be blank.

I am someone who makes a conscious effort to have positive energy and keep out negative energy, I have a feeling this is someway connected to my "energy"?

Please help.

No, it's not related to your energy. Energy doesn't work that way. It's a combination of you being careless with your electronics and the confirmation effect (you remember when people mention it and forget when they don't). That's exactly what the Pauli effect is - anecdotal, not real.

You could be what is termed a SLIder. Seems to affect electrical things usually when stressed.

I only discovered this phenomenon when my partner had this strange effect. She would stand under lightbulbs and they would just go out. It happened at her work - twice that I whitnessed, in shops - shop displays, sometimes the big high-bay lamps in Asda (when one of those goes out - you are left in the dark!). Tills not working, and those bells they ring at the till - it just started by itself and wouldn't stop!, lost 2 computers, and numerous phones. She can't wear a watch that works.

Best yet was she was getting really stressed at being late for work - I stopped at a junction. She got so worked up - two entire sets of streetlights that met at the junction went out! One set flickered back on within seconds - but the others on the other road stayed out, so it was two different circuits. And my car - constant "unknown" electrical faults they can't fix, so sold it - now got a 1968 diesel - that is shielded to military spec !

Its a phenomena called the Pauli effect. A lot of people report having an effect on electronics
