This is a picture of a frozen water crystal. Isn't it beautiful? It reminds me of a snowflake. I love snowflakes. I'm always amazed at their delicacy and intricacy. This particular crystal is very special. The picture is taken from the book Hidden Messages in Water by Masaru Emoto. He was fascinated by water crystals. In doing experiments with different water, and the crystals they would form he was surprised to see that some water was not capable of forming crystals. These were the waters that had been treated by chemicals. He also found that by playing music next to the water, before it was frozen, the most amazing crystals would form. This piqued his curiosity so much that he then experimented with all sorts of things besides music. He wanted to see if words made a difference in how crystals would form. He wanted to see what would happen when he exposed the water to technology, like microwaves. Words like" love" and "thank you" created beautiful crystals. Words like hate and anger did just the opposite. The water exposed to microwaves looked awful after it had been frozen. He found that time and time again, the crystals would form according to what kinds of energies that had been exposed to.

So what, you may ask. The reason this is so important is because our bodies are mostly water. Our bodies are greatly influenced by what happens with the water in our bodies. When we are around things that have a positive energy, we will enjoy better health and wellbeing. We feel better emotionally. When we are exposed to the negative energy, we suffer the consequences. Whether it's the toxins in the air, the chemicals in our foods, or the words we think and say, all these things will have a negative effect in some way to how we feel. Emoto's experiments prove what these kinds of things can do. By being aware of the kinds of things we are exposing ourselves to, we then have more control over how we feel.
