Love Thyself: The Message from Water III (v. 3)

“The common language that the people of the world have been seeking is found in water crystals. Water speaks for what is in our mind. Water awakens the subconscious memory in each person. . . . I now know why water is indispensable to the phenomenon of life, and why alternative therapies exist and why they’re effective. Water helped me understand religion and prayer and gave me a clue to understanding the nature of energy. It helped me understand the relationship between humanity and the cosmos. It gave me a clue to help me understand what dimensionality is. I could come one step closer to understanding the eternal theme of humanity that asks where we come from, why we are here, and what happens when we die.

“Thus, for the release of this, the third volume in my series of The Message from Water, I decided to choose what the world most urgently needs at present as a theme. That is, of course, the need to eliminate war and terrorism throughout the world. The theme I have chosen is ‘prayer.’ When I thought about it more deeply, I realized that prayer is most effectively sent when each person in the world raises their energy of love by imagining a scene where the peoples of the world are living in peace. I’ve been taught this through the process of asking water many questions.

“For this reason, the title of this book is ‘Love Thyself.’ First you must shine with positive, high-spirited vibrations, and be full of love. In order to do that, I think it’s important to love, thank, and respect yourself. If that’s the case, then each of those vibrations will be sent out into the world and the cosmos, and the great symphony of that harmonic vibration will wrap our planet in waves of love that serve to cherish our Heaven-granted lives. This is the message from water.”

The Shape of Love: Discovering Who We Are, Where We Came From, and Where We're Going

This cutting-edge new work, by the author of the New York Times bestseller The Hidden Messages in Water, presents a revolutionary understanding of life and consciousness and provides answers to the most profound questions of existence.

Introduced in the bestselling The Hidden Messages in Water and the hit cult film What the Bleep Do We Know?, the groundbreaking work of Japanese scientist Masaru Emoto captured the popular imagination and launched a worldwide movement. Using high-speed photography, Dr. Emoto discovered that crystals formed in frozen water are affected by our thoughts, words, and feelings. Since humans and the earth are composed mostly of water, his findings have far-reaching ramifications for individuals, for human society, and for the global environment.

In The Shape of Love, Dr. Emoto shares new images from his research and for the first time draws out the significant lessons of his work. In a clear, conversational style, he interprets the messages hidden in his extraordinary photographs and explains how his discoveries can help us find answers to these eternal questions: Where did we come from? Why are we here? Where will we go after we die? Providing a new way of looking at such important issues as how we treat others and the earth itself, Dr. Emotoâ??s findings encourage the positive actions that spell a better future for all.

A magnificent follow-up to The Hidden Messages in Water, The Shape of Love is a fascinating investigation into the intersection of science and spirituality and its impact on our lives and our world.

The Miracle of Water

Masaru Emoto has photographed thousands of water crystals throughout his years of research, yet few have been as beautiful and life affirming as those formed from the words "love and gratitude." In The Miracle of Water, Dr. Emoto demonstrates how water's unique role in transporting the natural vibration of these words can help you welcome change and live a more positive and happy life. Dr. Emoto also explores the significance of words and language, their origins, and their impact on water. He introduces and explains the key concept of resonance -- the vehicle through which life-force energy is transmitted. From this knowledge, he draws out lessons that we can apply to our lives to reap the benefits of positive resonance, including more harmonious relationships, restored health, and improved communications. This thoughtful book includes new and extraordinary water-crystal photographs that provide convincing reasons for all of us to choose positive words and strive for perfect resonance for a more healthy, peaceful, and happy life.

Messages from Water and the Universe

Masaru Emoto’s 15 extensive years of study on water has given him the background to discuss what water is, how it has been implicated in the creation of the universe, and why a perfect ratio of Love and Gratitude can help this energy can go on infinitely.

This fascinating book explains how our prayers, goodwill, and positive words heal us humans—as well as viruses and the universe as a whole—through water. Dr. Emoto explains that the fact that water has lost its true form shows that our way of living has moved away from God’s will, so we should be aware of our Creator’s alert to “correct the way we are living now.”

The information in this work is an important step in revealing how we can modify our way of living to bring about true peace on earth.

THE OSHO COLLECTION. VOL 5 - CRECIMIENTO ESPIRITAUL E ILUMINACION / SPIRITUAL GROWTH AND ENLIGHMMENT

Es posible que la iluminación sea un concepto con el que no estamos familiarizados y contemplamos de forma peyorativa, quizá con desconfianza, o que consideramos reservada a santos o personas excepcionales y fuera de nuestro alcance. Entonces se plantea la duda de si cada individuo tiene la posibilidad de iluminarse, incluso la humanidad entera. La respuesta de OSHO es una claridad meridiana. Nos habla de la iluminación como nuestro derecho de nacimiento y de cómo el ego y nuestros condicionamientos son los principales obstáculos para alcanzarla.



It is possible that the illumination is a concept perhaps with that we are not familiarized and we contemplated in a wrong way, with distrust, or that we considered reserved to saints or exceptional people and outside our reach. Then the doubt if each individual considers it has the possibility of illuminating itself, even the whole humanity. The OSHO answer is a dazzling clarity. He speaks to us about illumination as our right of birth and of how the ego and our agreements are the main obstacles to reach it.

The Real Secret of Success

Success comes in many shapes and sizes. For some, it might take the form of becoming extremely wealthy, well known, or highly regarded. For others, it might be an athletic achievement, solving a crime, or discovering the cure for a deadly disease. Regardless of what your definition of success may be there is a secret to realizing your personal victory.

In addition, there are also many qualities that have been attributed to success. Like courage, perseverance, and a positive attitude. But, the real secret behind any success begins with your beliefs, thoughts and words. If you have ever read a self help book I am sure this concept or theory is not new to you. However, now there is scientific evidence or proof to back it up!

Several years ago I picked up a book, The Hidden Messages in Water, by Masaru Emoto and David A. Thayne. The book illustrates the amazing results Japanese scientist Masaru Emoto discovered when conducting experiments with water. If you're thinking, "What does water have to do with our thoughts and words?" The answer is: everything! Because Mr. Emoto discovered that molecules of water are affected by our thoughts and words.

Mr. Emoto studied the effects of words, images and sound on water. He exposed distilled water, and water from various places around the world, to a variety of photographs, music, and words written on paper. Afterwards, he placed drops of that water onto specimen slides, froze them, and then looked at them under a microscope. What he saw is phenomenal! Have a look for yourself: http://www.hadousa.com/comparisons.html

Water that was exposed to positive words, images and sounds created some of the most vibrant, beautiful crystals ever formed. On the other hand, water that was exposed to negative words, images and sounds either did not form a crystal or the crystals were deformed. What his experiments demonstrate is that water -- when crystallized into ice -- mirrors the subtle vibrations or frequencies of energy that are created by our thoughts, feelings and words!

Mr. Emoto's remarkable discovery scientifically reveals that our very thoughts, feelings and words do have the power to shape and influence control over our lives and world. Words like love, gratitude, peace, and thank you created the most stunning crystals from water drawn from places all over the world. That's pretty mind-boggling, don't you think?

Hopefully, if you are ever feeling as if success is beyond your reach, you will remember how potent your beliefs, thoughts and words really are and that you have the power to change them and change your world. It's a scientific fact!

Alchemy - Can Thoughts Purify Water and Food?

Alchemy is not just changing base metal to gold. Spiritual teacher Jim Self, founder of Mastering Alchemy, states that "alchemy is first recognizing all that is possible, and then transforming one possibility into another. Alchemy is accomplished by changing the frequency of thought, altering the harmonics of matter, and applying the elements of Love to create the desired results."

In a similar vein, Dr. Emoto, a Japanese subtle energy field (Hado) researcher, teaches that water has a bio-resonance field and is impacted by human thought and actions.

"Hado* creates words. Words are the vibrations of nature Therefore beautiful words create beautiful nature Ugly words create ugly nature. This is the root of the universe." ~ Dr. Masaru Emoto, author "Hidden Messages in Water"

"Hado" refers to the intrinsic vibrational pattern at the atomic level in all matter. It is the smallest unit of energy and its basis is the energy of human consciousness. Dr Emoto's water crystal research proves that thoughts and words have the power to change water on a molecular level. He experimented with different words affixed to water jugs, then studied under a microscope as the water froze. The water jugs with positive words like "love and gratitude" created incredibly beautiful and unique crystal patterns like snowflakes. The water jugs with ugly words like "I hate you" would not organize into crystalline structures and remained incoherent and muddy.

Emoto took water samples from a polluted lake in Japan, and you can see how muddy and unstructured it was, when compared with the beautiful clear crystal taken one hour later after a priest prayed. The implications are enormous for our ability to clean up our environment.

Here in Florida, the water is so nasty even my dog Suki wouldn't drink it. So I spent years researching how to improve our tap water, and now have several systems in place to filter, oxygenate and remineralize it so we all enjoy the taste more and stay hydrated. Since becoming aware of Emoto's research, you can bet I placed stickers with words like Love and Gratitude on my water container and everyone comments how great it tastes!

Applying the Elements of Love through Chanting

However, this is not entirely a new awareness. In 1990 I lived in a meditation ashram and often did service in the kitchen. We were advised how important it was to maintain a high vibration while handling all aspects of food preparation as our thoughts and feelings would be transmitted to the food. We were asked to remain silent unless necessary, to eliminate gossip and negativity. A beautiful devotional chant was constantly playing that Indian sages concurred that both the melody and the mantras were particularly beneficial during food prep and eating. Even though I really disliked all facets of food prep, I was often in deep states of bliss in that kitchen.

At first blush I admit the rules seemed a bit, well, fanatic. However, I was shown the opposite effects very clearly one day when I was eating out at a restaurant with a fellow ashram resident. We were both feeling queasy towards the end of the meal, even though we ordered totally different lunches, so it did not appear to be food poisoning. The food was not digesting well and we couldn't quite figure it out.

As we debated what was causing our indigestion, we began to hear shouts emanating from the kitchen, and the crash of pots and pans flinging against a wall. Next the waitress came running out crying-clearly not a happy environment! We immediately understood why we were not feeling well! It was the vibration that was going into the food from the stressed out angry chef, not the food itself.

Altering the harmonics of matter with Reiki

I have been practicing Reiki, a natural energy healing method, for 18 years. In the very first class we learned we could apply Reiki, or universal life force, to our water and food to raise the vibration. I have been applying this healing energy to my food and water for many years, especially when eating out.

For validation, for the past 5 years my partner (and Reiki student) and I would compare notes while applying Reiki to our meals. Our results always matched and some patterns began to emerge. Whenever we prepared food at home, it always held a high vibration and radiated energy back to us. It did not seem to matter if it was organic, vegan, raw or highly processed junk food. It was in our unified field and already seemed to hold a high vibration.

However, when we went out to eat it was quite varied. Sometimes it would take several minutes of Reiki till the food and water felt vibrationally higher. This food would draw energy from my hands like a thirsty desert dweller, and then finally subside and even out. Other times it would feel even and balanced; only requiring a few seconds of energy. On rare occasions the food would be such a high vibration, it would be giving energy back and flow out so strong it seemed to be healing me!

Changing frequency of thought through Intention

Then one day about a year ago, right before I ate I caught a frequent thought pattern-"This food is probably really bad for me". I spend a lot of time researching natural healing and healthy foods and of course pesticide-free, organic, living and whole food ranks high on my list of "shoulds"-though unfortunately this is not always how I eat. I realized my thoughts are too powerful to be so negative about my food and perhaps, more potent even than pesticides-my thoughts are literally poisoning me! While I may not have control over how pure all my food is, I do have control over my thinking.

That very day we began to install a new intention: "All my food/water nourishes me at the highest level". While it did not shift over night, we both noticed a significant change in the vibration of all of our food. Now whenever we Reiki our food, no matter where or what we eat, (yes this includes the rare but occasional fast food while traveling) it has a steady and vibrant pulsing giving-back energy!

We are all energetic beings, living in an energetic world, and we all have the power, through our thoughts, feelings, and healing energy, to purify and uplift our food, our water, our planet, our selves! We are all Alchemists!

5 Tips To Gaining Positive Mental Attitude (PMA) Through Practicing Yoga

Yoga has been practiced for 100's of years. Today it seems like yoga is taught more for the physical benefits than the mental growth that can be gained. However, your yoga practice is a great place to develop a positive mental attitude (PMA). I want to share with you some ways to achieve PMA through practicing yoga:

1. always say thank you for the opportunity to practice yoga

2. breathe positive thoughts into every cell of your body

3. bring your mind's eye into every pose to see your body perfectly aligned

4. let every pose unfold to you so that every practice is healing

5. allow every practice to be brand new; always with compassion

6. practice with a registered yoga teacher

Thank You

Gratitude and love are the highest emotions that when simply thought can create positive change not only in your own cells but in those of people around you.

Masaru Emoto has photographed frozen water crystals which were sent thoughts of love and gratitude. Those photographed crystals are the most beautiful.

Just Breathe

We work and play all day long and are mostly unaware of our breath. To breathe is to live. Breathe life into every cell of your body with thoughts of love and gratitude.

The Mind's Eye

The mind's eye is about bringing awareness from your body to your mind. It's the feedback your body is giving your mind in the most subtle way. We walk around all day and forget about how our body really feels. Practicing yoga is a time to listen and send information between the mind and body. This is a perfect opportunity send positive affirmations from your mind to your body and back again.

Unfold

Allow each pose to unfold to you without struggle; only with a gentle invitation. This will keep you free from injury - both physically and mentally. When poses contain ego your body and mind will suffer. When a pose is allowed to unfold to you the benefits are ten fold. Each yoga pose will bring thoughts of joy and accomplishment to increase your PMA.

Compassion

Be the observer in every yoga pose. Watch and listen to the balance of every pose as your body attracts what it needs. Feel compassion with every pose so that your body will be attracted to the benefits rather than to the competition. Having compassion will bring an abundance of PMA without injury to your body or mind.

Yoga Teacher

Your yoga teacher will offer a path of healing to your practice. She will demonstrate encouragement, compassion and insight to every pose. Practice with a teacher that invites your confidence and brings a constant feeling of PMA.

Thousands of candles can be lighted from a single candle and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared. Buddha

Change exceeds all expectations.

The World Peace exercise offered in this article, was created by the author in a sudden rush of inspiration on the 7th of November, 2005. As soon as it was publicised, it began gathering supporters around the globe. This is something that each one of us can do. For us to have world peace, there needs to be enough of us that resonate world peace. This is a wonderful start! It is with much joy, that I present to you The World Peace Exercise.

Fill a glass jug or carafe with water - preferably rainwater or bottled water,
On a piece of paper the size of a large coaster, write 'World Peace' - you can design it as you like with sacred geometry (I use the star of David - two triangles one on top of the other - one turned upside down),
Place the coaster on your altar - then the carafe on top of that,
Also place on your altar a glass goblet,
Every day - meditate for a few minutes, then put your hands around the carafe of water and focus lovingly on world peace,
Once you've done that, pour a goblet of the water and drink it.
Please note that you can put your own phrases into the water instead, personal peace is the start of world peace.

The programming of water has been around for a long time. Water, like glass and quartz is wonderful at taking on the vibrations around it. In more recent times, Dr Masaru Emoto has worked extensively with studying and even photographing the effects of focusing different intentions into water. He has shown that all is needed is to 'show' the water a picture or words overnight, and the water literally changes form. Dr Emoto travels the world lecturing about his findings.

It is well worth trying this exercise for two weeks, to see for yourself the effect it has on your life.

Bless Your Water

We are made of 85% of water, our cells are bathed in water, and we would not last very long if we did not have enough water in our bodies. Water is one of the most precious liquids on earth. I have discovered a way to turn it into a priceless healing tool.

After I read the book 'The Hidden Messages in Water', who experimented with frozen water molecules, to see if water was affected by thoughts and emotions, I decided to try it out.

I had been drinking filtered water for years, because it tastes much nicer than tap or bottled water. I wanted to find out what would happen by also blessing it. I filled up a jug with filtered water, rubbed my hands together and placed it on the jug thinking these thoughts: 'I love and appreciate you. I give you my gratitude for the life and nourishment you bring to my body. Thank you, I bless you with all my love'. I did this every time I filled up the jug. There was a definite improvement in the taste, much lighter, smoother, and fresher. I even received comments from friends who I gave a glass of that water to.

From then on I blessed the water each time I filled up the jug with fresh water. Then I noticed that when I would forget to do it, the water would not taste 'right' or as nice and then I would remember that I had forgotten the laying of hands on it.

As I did not want to forget, I thought that maybe I could find a shortcut. The idea came from a friend who was experimenting with me at the same time. He suggested I write a few loving words on a piece of paper and place it on the jug or bottle. So I did. I took a small piece of paper, large enough to accommodate a few words, but not too big, and wrote: 'Love, Appreciation, Gratitude,' and I wrapped it around the jug with adhesive tape, with the words facing the water. It worked a treat! Using this method, the water is always being blessed and it always tastes wonderful.

Of course it is much more powerful if there are real feelings of love and gratitude in the words before writing it. If you do it thinking it is a joke and it is all a pile of manure, then it might not be as powerful. Nevertheless it still works. Words have power, thoughts have power and they influence the molecular structure of water and all living things. (Please refer to the book: 'The Hidden Messages in Water' by the famous Japanese author).

Why bless the water you drink, you might ask? Because if you are made of 85% of the precious substance, by ingesting blessed water, you are recharging your cells on a molecular structure; and so the cells which regenerate themselves completely in a year, have the material to reproduce healthy cells instead of sickly ones.

If you are on the healing path, (or even if you are not), blessing water and food, is a must to integrate in your life. Blessing and giving gratitude to the food you eat, and the water you drink, changes the vibration of the food and water. And you will feel much more nourished on all levels. It creates a much healthier you, and it is a step closer to be more connected to your own spirit and to who you really are.

Words, Thoughts, Water and YOU

"Beautiful words have beautiful, clear vibrations. But negative words put out ugly, incoherent vibrations which do not form clusters. Language is not something artificial, but rather is something that exists naturally. I believe that language is created by nature." ~Masaru Emoto

o Scientific research claims that human beings think anywhere between 12,000-60,000 thoughts in a day. More than 90% of these thoughts are not new. They are the same as you had the day before, the week before or the month before. And more than 80% of these thoughts are negative and self-critical.

o Words, thoughts, emotions, ideas, images are energy. They are vibrations and have a frequency.

o Water constitutes more than 70% of our bodies and more than 70% of the Earth.

Thoughts and water? 70%? What's the connection and what's their significance?

Scientific research: Hidden Messages of Water

Dr. Masaru Emoto, a Japanese scientific researcher and healer, conducted research on water to understand its influence on the health of human beings. He conducted numerous experiments on different samples of water drawn from different sources. When concentrated and specific thoughts were directed towards the water samples, changes were perceived in the crystalline structure of the frozen water.

His experiments, findings and theories are detailed in his book, The Hidden Messages of Water.

"The Hidden Messages in Water is an eye-opening theory showing how water is deeply connected to people's individual and collective consciousness.

Drawing from his own research, scientific researcher, healer, and popular lecturer Dr. Masaru Emoto describes the ability of water to absorb, hold, and even retransmit human feelings and emotions. Using high-speed photography, he found that crystals formed in frozen water reveal changes when specific, concentrated thoughts are directed toward it.

Music, visual images, words written on paper, and photographs also have an impact on the crystal structure. Emoto theorizes that since water has the ability to receive a wide range of frequencies, it can also reflect the universe in this manner.

He found that water from clear springs and water exposed to loving words shows brilliant, complex, and colorful snowflake patterns, while polluted water and water exposed to negative thoughts forms incomplete, asymmetrical patterns with dull colors.

Emoto believes that since people are 70 percent water, and the Earth is 70 percent water, we can heal our planet and ourselves by consciously expressing love and goodwill." ~ Amazon.com Review

"Think of it in terms of vibration. It's easy to understand that language -- the spoken word -- has a vibration. Well, written words also have a vibration. Anything in existence has a vibration." ~Masaru Emoto

Words, emotions, thoughts, images, ideas not only have an impact on us, they have an impact on the environment around us. Negative thoughts/emotions/words/ideas/images vibrate at lower frequencies compared to their positive counterparts. Negative energies, as we all know, can be depressing, draining, demotivating, unhealthy and disempowering while positive energies can be uplifting, energizing, inspiring and empowering.

Water is vital to life

For thousands of years, spiritual scientists, wise teachers and cultures all over the world have known and understood that energy is all there is. They not only recognized and understood the power of energy in various forms and formless and the properties of the energy - they also effectively used this knowledge in their daily lives to heal, cure and promote life.

Ether (Space/Sky), Air, Fire/Light, Water, Earth are the basic five elements of energy (Pancha Bhoothas)that form the building blocks of nature and this universe - basically, everything on this planet is created from these basic five elements - all minerals, plants, animals and human beings. That our human bodies comprise of 70% of water and the earth comprises of 70% of water signifies how vital water is to the creation, existence and sustenance of life on this planet. No wonder, space research is so focused on discovering traces of water on moon and other planets for signs of life.

Some interesting tit bits on water and its power of healing

o "Holy water", water blessed through chants or name of the Creator/God/Spirit (or water stored in silver or gold vessels and exposed to solar and lunar light), forms an important part of rituals all over the world. Civilizations, cultures and religions (Hinduism, Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Paganism etc.) across the world have believed in the power of water in healing and promoting life for centuries.

o Water is the only chemical substance among thousands of chemicals tested by scientists that could detect the subtle vibrations that reach the earth from stars and planets thousands of miles away. This also proves that ancient people understood the mysterious powers of water and inculcated the practice of bathing in rivers on specific days when the water receives vibrations from other planets and galaxies. (Sakthi Foundation Org)

o Dr. Masaru Emoto treated water with aromatic oils and was surprised to observe the water crystals which were similar to the look of the flowers that the aroma oils were made from. This explains again why in Indian temples, herbs were added to the water before chanting of Vedic scriptures. The most common herbs used include bilva, basil, camphor, neem, turmeric, darba grass etc. This herbal water is usually given to the devotees after worship. (Sakthi Foundation Org)

o The river Ganga, one of the largest rivers in India, has been known for ages as the holy river. Its "holy" waters are considered purifying with an extraordinary ability to heal, cure and prevent diseases. Apparently, the water carries "bacteriophages that vanquish bacteria and more" (Source: Wikipedia) and has a "unique and extraordinary ability to retain dissolved oxygen, but the reason for this ability is unknown" (Source: Wikipedia). It has remarkable self-cleansing properties.

The Power of Consciousness on Cellular Behaviour - Changing Thoughts & Emotions For a Healthier Life

Understanding that a cell's behaviour is controlled by its physical and energetic environment and not its genes, or how your cells respond to your thoughts and actions, can literally change the course of your life. Think about how you physically feel when you are stressed, angry, unhappy? What about when you are happy, loved or in love, laughing? New biology is on the frontiers of research demonstrating how your thoughts and emotions can change the behaviour of cells (without changing their genetic code).

Many people have heard of Dr. Masaru Emoto and his research with water. Dr. Emoto has published at least 6 books now with photographs demonstrating the effect on ice crystal formation on water that has had positive words taped to the dish, or negative words (as well as different types of music). This was indeed part of the inspiration behind Creo Mundi - the fact that the human body is over 70% water, thus if we surround the body with positive words perhaps we can fundamentally change the way people think about themselves (in a positive way).

Now Dr. Bruce Lipton has published a book "The Biology of Belief, Unleashing the Power of Consciousness, Matter & Miracles" where he describes the research demonstrating at a scientific level how your cells respond to your thoughts and perceptions. Dr. Lipton, a cellular biologist, describes his own "light bulb" moment as the moment when he realized that it is the physical and energetic environment that controls a cell's behaviour, not its genes. The genes he says are simply "molecular blueprints used in the construction of cells, tissues, and organs".

Even if you are not a molecular biologist, this simple statement has a ring of truth to it. As a nurse, I've believed for years that stress can change the physical environment of cells that in turn makes them more susceptible to viruses and cancers. The physical environment changes the behaviour of the cell.

I've seen people told they have months to live, go on to live many more years. And I've seen people told they have a year to live die exactly one year later. The difference in many cases was simply the attitude of the person - did they fight the diagnosis? Did they create visualizations, having a loving support system, eat healthily, remove themselves from stress wherever they could? Or did they accept the diagnosis, get their affairs in order, and basically live their life as a count-down to their final days? The genes may be creating one thing (the construction blueprint), but the environment can turn it into something else (the behaviour). Dr. Lipton's statement about the physical and energetic environment makes it easier to change ones perception on how the energy in Intention for example really can affect your physical environment.

The work in this area is exploding, and while many people remain unconvinced, my own feeling is that just because you can't see it doesn't mean it isn't there. All it means is that our science has not yet caught up to being able to capture the data in a meaningful way. You can't see gravity, but you can feel it. You can't see energy from your body, but you can feel it.

So perhaps it is time to start paying attention to what you think on a daily basis, who or what you surround yourself with, and the actions you take each day. You really are in control of your own environment, so start making positive choices for a healthier being.

Are You Drinking Dead Water or Living Water?

Living Energized Water

The Earth is made up of mostly water and so are our bodies. In this lies a crucial key that we should be paying attention to.

There is dead water and living water, also known as energized water. Not all water is the same and not all water is good for you.

Living water is considered water that carries life force energy.


It is believed to have five important characteristics.


A strong life force charge


An abundance of vital minerals, like calcium, magnesium and other trace minerals


Clean and pure, not polluted with chemicals, harmful bacteria or other biological contaminants


Small clustered water molecules


High antioxidant properties from high electron availability

Dead water on the other hand, is over filtered or contaminated water. It is depleted of all of the above properties.

Living Water Pioneers

There is much to be learned about water. Study Viktor Schauberger and the recent work of Masaru Emoto and you will learn some fascinating mysteries about water.

Schauberger (1885-1958) was a man of nature and his close relationship to the forests he loved led him to observe the intriguing nature of water. He studied its movement and other phenomena and learned that water held great life giving properties not acknowledged by the scientific community.

His studies and knowledge of water are still revolutionary today. He created technology whereby lifeless water can be revitalized to "living water".

"They called me crazy. I hope that they are right. It is of no greater import if another fool wanders this earth. But if I am right and science is wrong - then may the Lord God have mercy on mankind." Viktor Schauberger.

Masaru Emoto (1943-present)is presently well known for his experiments with glasses of water that he exposed to emotions, prayer, pictures and written words. The water was then frozen and the crystaline structure was studied and photographed.

His amazing photos show how the crystal structure of the water varied remarkably with each different exposure. For example, a positive exposure like taping the word "love" to a glass of water led to beautiful, symmetrical crystals and a negative exposure like the word "hate" created chaotic and unbalanced crystals.

Mr. Emoto believes the water crystals show "true nature" and are an important look into the mysteries of water.

You can also look to the Bible and learn what is written there about living water.

As in the Book of John, "When the Living Water entered the turbid water, the Living Water lamented and wept."

Water was laid on this earth to bring forth life, and we are tainting it and making it that which takes life away.

Dead Tainted Water

When my daughter was a baby, I learned about the chemicals put in municipal water supplies, such as chlorine and fluoride and the imbalances this creates in our bodies.

According to the Clinical Toxicology of Commercial Products, fluoride is more poisonous than lead, and just slightly less poisonous than arsenic. Fluoride is used as rat poison.

In the human body, it destroys enzymes. When enzymes are damaged it affects the immune system, digestive system, respiratory system, blood circulation, kidney function, liver function, brain function and thyroid function.

If you start investigating the harms of fluoride, you'll quickly learn that it does not have the benefits it is touted to have but quite the opposite.

Chlorine in our drinking water is a bad story too.

It is a labeled a pesticide by the EPA. We know chlorine kills living organisms, like when you put fish in chlorinated water. If chlorine kills animals, what is it doing to you?

In studies, chlorine has shown to be carcinogenic. Increased rates of rectal and bladder cancer are linked to long term drinking of chlorinated water. Chlorine is also a hormone disruptor, harms the thyroid, upsets the flora of the digestive system and is linked to miscarriages.

Since our skin is the largest organ of our body, and because it is very absorbent, it is important not to allow these chemicals on our skin either.

As you can see, it is very crucial to pay attention to the water you are using.

Which Water Source is Best?

Trying to figure out which source of water to drink can get quite complicated. There are many types of water filters, purifiers and other water products for sale.

Finding a water system that removes chemicals from the water without stripping out the minerals and one that creates living energy in the water is important and the most beneficial to health. (Visit my site at http://www.natural-health-girl.com/livingwater.html for more information on water systems.)

In addition to avoiding tap water with chemicals, one must also be careful of softened, distilled, reverse osmosis or other over filtered water. These systems remove too many of the minerals. In turn, this water will leach minerals from your body and possibly leave you in a depleted condition.

As Viktor Schauberger warned, if we don't pay attention to our living water and protect it, then mankind is in great danger.

Losing Weight by Drinking Water - 7-Ways Water Helps You Lose Weight Just by Drinking It

Everyone knows that a human cannot live without water; but is water a miracle drug? Many health care professionals would say that it is. Dr. Masaru Emoto, author of The Messages From Water series of books, would certainly support the age-old practices of priests in many religions of imparting blessings and "miraculous" healing properties to water using nothing more than prayer, or intention. Some might say that Holy water, or healing waters, may only have power in our minds; but remember - our minds have power over our bodies, our health, and our lives.

Dr. Batmanghelidj, in his book, Your Not Sick, You're Thirsty: Your Body's Many Cries For Water, lists many healing benefits of water - including implications for weight-loss. And common sense tells us that we are made of mostly water and that we should replenish our essence. Though there is no hard-and-fast rule; the amount of water you should drink depends on your circumstances, your body, and other individual factors and characteristics. Even if you know how much water you need to drink each day, that amount would probably change if you were in a drier climate, or if you were working and sweating more, or if your diet changed or became more "toxic" or "polluted."

Common sense tells us we need water; but what do we "need" it for? The fact is that you are mostly water; and you need water to function properly. If you do not replace the water you use, you will become toxic and dehydrated; you will not get that fabulously fit body you're after if you are chronically dehydrated and your body isn't functioning as it should. You don't simply need water to quench your thirst; thirst is simply a signal letting you know that your body needs more water in order to keep functioning properly.

The thought that thirst can be quenched with any beverage has led to a nation that is mostly overweight (66% of Americans are overweight); and soft drinks, beer, kool-aid, and milkshakes - though delightful - are just a few of the tools we've used to create this reality. If nothing else, drinking water will help you avoid the hazards of dehydration, and the harmful effects of drinking so many chemicals, sugars, and artificial colors; but there is much more to the water story. Water helps you maintain a healthy functioning body; and it does many things that support and sustain healthy, natural weight loss.

Here are seven of the simpler ways water can help you lose weight:

1. Water helps you lose weight by making you feel full. We all stop eating when we're full - even if someone offers us one of our favorite foods. If your stomach is full, you don't eat; and, if your stomach is full of something that has no calories, then you aren't gaining weight. Unless you're dead, you are losing weight if you aren't gaining it. Of course, there are some people who do keep eating well past the point where they feel full; if you have clinical disorders, water can still help you in all of these ways, but consider trying one of the new Energy Psychology techniques (like EFT and Z-Point, for example) to possibly eliminate your disorder - quickly, safely, effectively, inexpensively, and completely.

2. Water helps curb food cravings. Most people can't tell the difference between their "thirst-signals," and their "hunger-signals;" so, most people eat when they are actually thirsty. Unneeded calories adds unwanted weight; changing the way you address your cravings changes the amount of calories you put into your body. Eating when you are actually thirsty will help you gain weight; so, it naturally follows that, if you drank water when you were thirsty - instead of eating a snack - your body isn't receiving something it can store or burn, so it has to use fuel it already has onboard.

3. Water quenches your thirst. Besides the fact that people eat when they are thirsty, and water turns-off that impulse; people also drink sodas, and other fattening beverages when they are thirsty. If you are drinking enough water, it will be difficult to continue guzzling those sugar-and-chemical-laden beverages. And, if you stop drinking sugar, you will probably lose some weight.

4. Water flushes toxins from your system. This is a simple matter of common sense; if you don't pee, stuff stays inside you. If you don't drink water, you don't pee. Not all scientists and doctors say the same thing; so you really need to follow your own intuition on all things medical. Water is a fluid; but your body isn't simply made of "mostly fluid." Your body is made of mostly water - Hydrogen and Oxygen. You are an electric entity; you need Hydrogen and Oxygen - not simply random liquids. People who don't drink enough water often think they are supposed to feel sluggish, and that their urine is supposed to have that color and odor... You're not, and it's not; those are actually signs of dehydration you just aren't reading properly.

5. Water increases metabolism. There is a significant thermogenic effect from drinking at least 500ml of water. With no caloric value to "pay for" the energy created as a direct result of drinking water, the body must use it's own fuel stores to heat and process the water you consume.

6. Water Hydrates you. Being hydrated improves digestive function, and every part of your overall health picture. Being dehydrated can put your body in the stress response - which causes your body to produce stress hormones such as cortisol (the hormone responsible for helping your body convert and store undigested food as fat). Hydrated cells are healthy cells; a healthy body is made of healthy cells.

7. Water can be used as a Placebo. Drinking water for any of the reasons listed above could be effective at helping you lose weight for no other reason than you (1.) Think or Believe that drinking water could produce a certain effect; and, (2.) You actually drink water as directed for the prescribed purpose. In other words, placebo studies have shown that people who are given a "remedy" with no known curative properties often benefit simply because they believe they should. So, if you drink water because you believe it has weight-loss benefits, you have increased your chances of experiencing the benefit you seek. Sterile water is often used as a placebo in medical trials; and water has actually cured "incurable" and potentially fatal conditions when used as a remedy in a clinical or therapeutic setting. Placebos show us that it really is "the thought that counts."

No matter what your reasons for drinking water, you need to drink it; this is simply a matter of common-sense if you want to maintain a healthy body and live a healthy, happy life. But, if you seriously consider water as a weight-loss tool, implement, or technique for losing weight, then you are going to find at least the same results you'd achieve with any other weight-loss plan - without harmful side effects. But, most likely, you'll notice profound changes in your health, life, and body within a few days of simply drinking an adequate amount of water for your body and your level of activity. You don't have to do anything crazy or extreme; just drink enough water to keep yourself properly hydrated and see what happens.

You Are What You Drink

The human body consists of between 55 and 78 percent of water, depending on body size. Lean people have a higher percentage of water because muscles hold more water than fat. To function properly the body needs between one and seven liters of water per day to avoid dehydration. How much you need any given day depends on your level of activity, temperature, humidity etc.

Scientists have not been able to determine exactly how much water the human body needs each day. So the advice you get will vary depending on where you look for information. Most advice I've heard say you need between one and two liters per day. Water is crucial to every system in your body. Lack of water can lead to dehydration; you don't have enough water in your system to carry on normal functions. Even mild dehydration will affect your body in a negative way. You can feel tired, dizzy, get headaches, have a dry mouth and experience little or no urination, amongst other symptoms.

The liquid your body needs is ingested trough food and beverages. About 20 percent of your requirement is covered by the food that you eat. The reminding 80 percent comes from drinking beverages, for instance milk, coffee and tea, fruit juices, sodas - and plain water.

The Japanese author Masaru Emoto has made several experiments where he exposed water droplets to human speech or thoughts before they were frozen. Images of the resulting water crystals turned out beautiful or ugly depending upon weather the words or thoughts were positive or negative. So it is very important that you drink high quality water products from natural water sources.

Pure, natural and unpolluted water has naturally structured water molecules. This water is what your body needs! The water you get from commercial water producers or municipal services which has been treated or exposed to various pollutants along its way has molecules that deviate from its live-giving original form.

There are several ways to reenergize the water to give it back its life supporting crystalline structure before drinking it. The water molecules then reclaim their energetic, hydrating, and life-giving qualities. You can choose one of the more expensive systems like the Kangen water system, or you can try Emotos approach and stick a note with some loving words on your water bottle. Or you can choose from a number of various systems available on the market.

I've chosen a water carafe which is designed by Thomas Chochola (TC energy design). Mr. Chochola is a musician, and his research in the area of musical form composition has helped him develop a completely new approach to design - he creates form from sound.

These water carafes are music pieces converted into spatial dimensions. They are designed according to biological forms, the golden ratio, geometrical constructions and symbols. The same principles were used by the old masters crating legendary cathedrals and pyramids. Even nature itself, included the human body, is created according to the same principles.

Since water is of such great important to the proper functioning of the human body, it might be a good idea to give some extra thought as to the quality of the water you drink, because - you really are exactly what you drink!

Vibrational Resonance - Create Your Best Reality

Understanding the concept of Vibrational Resonance (VR) can provide you with a working guide for living life in tune with the cosmos. By learning to trust and work with the concepts discussed in this article you will gain an intimate understanding of the wave nature of physical reality, which in turn empowers you to manifest the life of your dreams. Just like with your dreams, however, you must learn to access the secret inner core in order to facilitate the grandest expansions.

Dr. Masuro Emoto and "The Hidden Messages in Water"

The vibrational characteristics of water beautifully instruct us how to manifest an abundant life. I recently had the privilege of attending a workshop given by bestselling author Dr. Masaru Emoto. With public acceptance of his book titled 'The Hidden Messages in Water," Dr. Emoto's work is now generally acknowledged, but he struggled many years for recognition within his medical and scientific community.

Dr. Emoto developed a system to photograph the crystal formations made by water just as it surrenders from frozen solid into liquid form. His work provides visual comparisons of water molecules from sources such as clear mountain streams, as well as denatured city water. Predictably, the pure and natural water sources show brilliance and clarity in their crystal formations.

Amazingly, Dr. Emoto also uses the power of spoken words and intention to illustrate transformations in the microscopic structure of water droplets. The water crystal example that changed his life was one formed by exposure to the words "love and gratitude." Emoto teaches that water has the ability to both copy and memorize information.

Hado Energy

Dr. Emoto has also developed a healing aspect of his work which he calls Hado Vibrational Medicine. His less scientific and more spiritually oriented teaching of Hado Vibrational theory uses harmony and resonance as a platform for healing the physical, mental and emotional injuries of individuals, as well as the world at large. Hado can also be described as chi, or soul energy, which moves in waves. Like water, Hado energy needs to be flowing and never stagnant. This is a reminder that we cannot hang on to old grief, or other negative patterns. Our role as human beings and conscious co-creators of peace is to be in harmony with all of existence; when a person's consciousness is polluted by doubt or prejudice, this harmony fails.

Dr. Emoto addresses the issues of chaos in our world today, as well as our search to eliminate suffering. He further addresses the world as a reflection of the soul by concluding: "Just as a drop in a pond creates a ripple that spreads out endlessly, the deformity of even one soul spreads throughout the world, resulting in global deformities." This visual image of a ripple in water offers an amazing model for working to change one's reality.

Using a model of concentric circles to illustrate progressively finer aspects of energy, Hado lies in the center as an elementary particle of the Universe. So, in this example, the physical body would be the outermost circle, next the organs of our body, and in an even smaller circle inside of the others, the molecules. The next smaller and energetically finer building block would be atoms, and finally, the smallest circle in this model represents Hado, or elementary particles.

Vibrational Resonance (VR) and Manifestation

However, there is one more critical key which unlocks the door to successfully harnessing VR, the power of Vibrational Resonance. This key understands that in order to influence change on a vibrational level, one more critical place must be penetrated: the innermost space inside the circle of the elementary particle! Emoto teaches that the realm of creative consciousness lies within this core center, and that it can be penetrated and influenced by positively harmonized water. This is the reason for blessing our drinking water.

The inner core is also accessed through pleasing music, and positive intentionality. This core space is the realm of the 'observer', as taught by quantum physics and even ancient meditation practices. To facilitate conscious creation, we must first travel deeply inward, through the concentric rings of organized physical and even atomic energy; and then, once inside, effectively step out of the way.

The following words are from the Vedas of ancient India and over 7000 years old. Consider how Indra's Net blends ancient teachings with quantum thought. Surely, understanding and practicing Vibrational Resonance yields the gifts of the crystal beads.

Indra's Net

There is an endless net of treads throughout the universe.

The horizontal threads are in space, the vertical threads in time.

At every crossing of thread there is an individual, and every individual is a crystal bead. The great light of absolute being illuminates and penetrates every crystal being,

and every crystal being reflects not only the light from every other crystal in the net,

but also every reflection throughout the universe.

Inspired by Dave Courchene

I just came across something we all can do that resonates so strongly with me.

"Get a bottle of clean water, hold it close to your hearts and offer a prayer. Through the Water, send a message of love and gratitude to the Earth, and to all water of the Earth that has been affected and contaminated. Send your love to the Water and to Mother Earth.

This strong love of Spirit that you will put into the Water will give strength to Mother Earth.

Go to your nearest body of Water - a creek, a stream, a river, a waterfall, lake or ocean, and pour your Water that you have blessed with your prayer of gratitude. It will be your spirit of love to the Earth that offers our best chance of survival."

From Dave Courchene of the Turtle Lodge

What if we include a vision that folds in nicely with this inspired call to action. Perhaps it will resonate with you as it does with me.

What if we blessed water monthly? Weekly? Daily? Quarterly? With the cycles of the moon? Whatever type of commitment makes sense to the individual. Across the planet those participating would be contributing individually but as a whole there would be a consistency of intention.

While not everyone lives near water, the intention of gratitude transcend physical limitations. This could be done wherever you live; city, plains, mountains, desert. The planet is a whole - water, oxygen, atmosphere, ice, land, plants, animals and human all are part of Planet Earth.

We can bless and pour the water on the land or in water. Be where you are, be with the intention of blessing. That blessing would be carried to the atmosphere as the water evaporates or would blend with water. That blessing could then be part of the rain as it falls to bless the planet, people, plants and animals. We might then absorb that blessing as we drink the water - same with the animals and plants. A cycle of blessing might be created. Our blessings would travel to all ecosystems carried by the winds that promote the general circulation of air on the planet.

Singular group actions carry weight. Consistency of action produces change. Consider it. Don't get caught by a belief in victimhood - which suggests we have no choice. We do. We can make a difference - link choice, intention and action. Our blessings can affect all of life in ways we can't imagine.

If you don't remember to do it every day, do it a few times a week, or weekly. It's about people sharing a common intention. If this resonates, simply make an effort and do the best you can. Collectively it makes a difference.

The Power of Thoughts on Plants and Water

My friend Debra believes fervently in the power of thoughts. When she wants something, she fixes its image in her mind, nourishes the thought daily with expectation and gratitude. Then she waits. Invariably, whether it takes 2 days, 2 months or 2 years, she gets what she desires. She has shown repeatedly that there is power in thoughts.

What she has fixed in her mind invariably appears--in one form or another--a mantel clock that is a perfect replica of one she saw in a magazine, a parking spot that miraculously opens up in a blizzard, the ideal companion for a lonely, divorced friend, a perfect location for her husband's new business. Her life is filled with the blessings of a pure and gentle heart, one that knows how to ask and wait for it to be given.

The more I am in touch with her, the less surprised I am about her clear and prescient way of receiving gifts from the universe. After all, we have seen a pronounced paradigm shift in the last 25 years, a shift in the way we perceive the world and our role within it. We now recognize that there is not only power in our thoughts, but power in the thoughts of the natural kingdom. As humans, we have arrogantly secluded ourselves from the plant, animal and mineral worlds, thinking that we have been the only species privileged with thought and power.

Not so any more, according to two books --Masaro Emoto's "The Hidden Messages of Water"(2004): and Cleve Backster's "Primary Perception: Biocommunication with Plants, Living Foods and Human Cell"( 2003)-- both released within the last 3 years, in tune with a growing recognition that we are no longer the only sentient species in the universe. These books introduce us not only the secret life of water, but the secret thoughts of plants.

Masaru Emoto, a renowned Japanese researcher and independent thinker, shocked and inspired the world with his high-speed photographs of water structure shot at the moment of freezing. What these photographs showed was that water responded directly to human thoughts, words and even music. Crystals formed in frozen water changed their formation and behavior in response to specific thoughts or words directed at them. Water blessed with benevolence and love, for example, displayed brilliant and symmetrical patterns. Water, exposed to negative thoughts and words, assumed asymmetrical, incomplete and despondent shapes.

Emoto has come to see that water is not an inanimate substance; it is able to "copy" and "memorize" information. Memory is alive and pulsing though the entire universe; the rock in our garden is not just a rock; it carries layers of memories striated like a cartilege beneath its surface--all the more reason for us to give it reverence. Our own memories are carried in our cells; these memories are formed by the words we speak and the thought we entertain in our minds. Emoto says," In Japan, it is said that words of the soul reside in a spirit called...the 'spirit of words' and the act of speaking words has the power to change the world."

If water can respond to human thoughts, so can plants, claims Cleve Backster in his book. Considered a leading authority in polygraph and lie detection, Backster attached electrodes from his polygraph machine to a plant stalk in order to measure the time needed for water to travel up the plant to reach the leaves. In the process of this experiment, he discovered that the plant could respond to human thought; a thought of burning the leaves of the plant registered wild and erratic movement in the polygraph chart. This was the beginning of his lifelong interest in understanding the cellular communication process, what he calls "Primary Perception," the ability of plant, animal and human cells to perceive and respond at both local and nonlocal levels.

Devising further experiments, he discovered that cellular memory and communication can transcend both space and time and can be measured: plants reacted to the boiling of brine shrimp in water; yogurt reacted to the death of bacteria even when these experiments were carried out miles apart. In an interview, Backster recounted a visit from a botanist to his laboratory that brought about a strange response from his plants: the graphs showed a wandering flatline that indicated the plants were in a state of shock. Prompted by their reaction, he asked his guest if she had done anything to hurt the plants she worked with." Her response was comically in line: "Hurt them? My dear, I roast them to get their dry weight." Over 40 years of research has bolstered his observation: that plant, animal, even bacteria cells are sentient organisms that responded to thought or intention, engaged in a primary perception that we, of the modern, human world, seem to have forgotten.

In summary, let me quote not from Sufi mystics or poets, but from one of the leading scientists and thinker of our times--physicist David Bohm whose book "Wholeness and the Implicate Order"(1980) is a major catalyst of our paradigm shift. Bohm speaks of two orders in the universe--the explicate or unfolded order of ordinary perception and the implicate or enfolded order of extraordinary perception. This is what he says: In the implicate order, "space and time are no longer the dominant factors determining the relationships of dependence or independence of different elements. Rather, an entirely different sort of basic connection of elements is possible from which our ordinary notions of space and time, along with those of separately existent material particles are abstracted as forms derived from the deeper order."

We've had it skewered all along. We think that what we see with our physical eyes is the whole truth. But this ordinary perception of space and time is only a derivative of the extraordinary and primary perception which we have lost--the power of thought, but which we can retrieve with a shift in our thinking and attitudes -as my friend Debra has done.

Is the Law of Attraction Real? Or is it an Elaborate Placebo Effect?

At first glance the Law of Attraction might sound like some sort of simple "positive thinking" scheme. But a deeper look into this mysterious law shows it has some physical substance to it, and its not as "airy-fairy" as people might make it out to be. Further yet, there are some interesting success stories revolving around it. But if you are like me, you might have lost hope in the law of attraction before it had time to take affect. I have to admit that I am starting to believe in it more and more after some simple research which I present here.

The Law of attraction states:

Like attracts like. And we attract those things in our life that we focus on with intent and energy. For example you could attract a positive financial situation in your life if you do positive things with the finances you already have. An example might be if you gave to charities and became even more prosperous as a result. Or on the other hand, if you are a Scrooge, you might experience a bad financial situation as a result. Further law of attraction theorists go onto say that our intentions have to be aligned with our actions in order for it to work. The law of attraction concept became mainstream with the 2006 best selling book The Secret, which also was sold as a movie.

So what is really going on with the Law of Attraction and how do you explain it in physical terms?

You can easily suspect the law of attraction operates on many levels, but one that can easily be explained is the placebo effect. Medicine.net describes the placebo effect as:

A remarkable phenomenon in which a placebo -- a fake treatment, an inactive substance like sugar, distilled water, or saline solution -- can sometimes improve a patient's condition simply because the person has the expectation that it will be helpful.

Expectation plays a potent role in the placebo effect. The more a person believes they are going to benefit from a treatment, the more likely it is that they will experience a benefit. In other words, the sheer power of mental intent causes a physical reaction in your body to mimic the outcome of what you believe will happen. You are essentially telling your body to respond in the way you believe it should respond. But the law of attraction appears to operate beyond just our physical bodies. I believe there is something else going on which I call subconscious cues.

A subconscious cue is essentially programming our reality to react from our subtle subconscious behaviors and intents. To give an example of this, you can be having a conversation with someone and the body language you project is telling them your true feelings - despite what's coming out of your mouth. Your subconscious is projecting your intent without your conscious realization. You might be leaving this subconscious programming with everything you see and touch.

The bigger picture:

The law of attraction appears to work on an even bigger scale if you take a closer look beyond mere positive thinking. Some would say it operates on a huge metaphysical level, and I've found some experiments to back up these claims. One particular experiment was done in the summer of 1993 in Washington DC based on the Maharishi Effect - claiming that, "Measurable effects can be seen on an entire society when a small number of people in the society practice various forms of Transc. Meditation." In this experiment nearly 4,000 people gathered in Washington D.C. to meditate on reducing crime. During an 8-week period, violent crime decreased by 20%. Scientists put this at a 2 in 1 billion chance that this reduction could have occurred by chance. This experiment shows that intent might have made a real physical outcome. It's absolutely fascinating if you ask me.

The power of intent seems to be pretty powerful even on a smaller level as well. Japanese scientist Masaru Emoto demonstrated this with something as simple as water. In his experiments Emoto would play music, say prayers, or just direct thoughts of loving intent towards water before he would freeze it. The water would form beautiful ice crystals as a result. On the contrary, if he projected hateful or angry intent towards the water before freezing it, he would find chaotic and disorganized crystallization.

Some people swear on their lives that the law of attraction is something real. Yet others can't wrap their minds around a concept so magical. But the one thing I've found to be true is a lyric from the Rolling Stones:

"You can't always get what you want.

But if you try sometimes, well you just might find,

You get what you need."

That seems to be the reality of it all. We may have the intent to try really hard to make something manifest in our lives. But in the end - the universe, god, random events, whatever you want to call it - gives us what we need. And we may not realize it in the moment, but hindsight shows how experience can make you a better person.
