Water and positive thoughts – Increase the life-giving properties of this vital resource

Water is one of the most amazing and mysterious elements in all of nature. Research conducted in various universities throughout the world has repeatedly shown that it is the structure or alignment of the molecules within water that are of much greater importance than its chemical purity. It has also been shown that positive thoughts, intent, and words of blessing directed at water can alter its structure in positive ways and thus increase its life giving properties.

 

 

It is well known that water has some mystifying properties. If even one of these properties were not present, life on the planet could not exist. For example, scientists still don’t know why water – of all elements alone – can exist in the three states of matter (solid, liquid and gaseous). They don’t know why water has the highest surface tension of all liquids or why it is the most powerful solvent on earth. Read more

Healing with water: the work of “water cure” pioneer Dr. Batmanghelidj

Those of you who are familiar with the work of the late Dr B. may own his book called “The Water Cure,” or “Water for health, for Healing, for Life: You’re Not Sick, You’re Thirsty.” He’s also the author of “Your Body’s Many Cries for Water.” Essentially, Dr. B is the foremost authority on the relationship between the consumption of water and states of health or disease in the human body.

As he explains in great detail in his many books, most common diseases (for which there are a variety of names such as asthma, arthritis, hypertension and so on) are really just names given to patterns of symptoms created by the body’s drought management system. When the human body begins to get dehydrated, it initiates a drought management system that seeks to conserve water. The symptoms characterized by this drought management effort are given disease names by conventional medicine and then treated with toxic prescription drugs.  Read more

Climate Change: Water Sources Need to be Protected

Seventy-five-year-old Verdiana Protas is worried that the 20 cattle she bought with her pension money will soon die because the 10-kilometre-long river in her village in northwest Tanzania has been dry for two years now and finding alternative sources of water is getting more and more difficult.

Like the other 200 families in Kagondo neighborhood in Bukoba urban district where Protas has lived for 40 years, her animals used drink from the river, which was also a source of water for domestic use.

Now Protas and the other residents don’t have a reliable source of water and they are forced to walk long distances to find water for drinking and their livestock, she says. ‘Some people walk for 10 kilometres but only end up getting unclean water,’ says Protas. Read more

Are There Psychoactive Drugs in Your Drinking Water?

Americans ingest more that 200 million prescription drugs like antidepressants every year. Between women seeing gynecologists and their children seeing obstetricians, over 210 million antibiotics were prescribed. Internists generate nearly 1.5 million antibiotic prescriptions per week. In the UK, the number of antidepressant prescriptions is 24 million.

Add to this the use of medicines for family pets and in agriculture, and the amount of pharmaceuticals used in the US and UK runs into the hundreds of thousands of tons. What happens to these pharmaceuticals once they’ve been ingested and have accomplished their task? Read more

The Water Cycle

Viewed from space, one of the most striking features of our home planet is the water, in both liquid and frozen forms, that covers approximately 75% of the Earth’s surface. Geologic evidence suggests that large amounts of water have likely flowed on Earth for the past 3.8 billion years—most of its existence.

Believed to have initially arrived on the surface through the emissions of ancient volcanoes, water is a vital substance that sets the Earth apart from the rest of the planets in our solar system. In particular, water appears to be a necessary ingredient for the development and nourishment of life.

Water, Water, Everywhere

Water is practically everywhere on Earth. Moreover, it is the only known substance that can naturally exist as a gas, a liquid, and solid within the relatively small range of air temperatures and pressures found at the Earth’s surface. Read more
