From outside the box

Dr. Masura Emoto, author of "The Hidden Messages in Water", has been experimenting with and photographing water crystals. He freezes water from different sources like lakes, ponds, rivers, as well as different types of drinking waters and then photographs the individual ice crystals. What he has found is that the purer the water, especially water from sources where it is in constant motion like a river or a stream, makes for more luminous and defined crystals than waters from stagnant sources or even chlorinated water. He has even experimented with applying different types of music as well as saying different phrases to a glass of water before freezing and photographing it. Water that has been exposed to classical music or to positive words like "love", "health", or "energy" make better crystals than water that has been cussed at or exposed to heavy metal music.

This has to be significant when you consider that our bodies are made up mostly of water. Our muscles are 75% water, our blood is 82% water, our lungs are 90% water, our brain is 76% water, and even our bones are 25% water. We all know that stress, emotions, and much of what is going on with us mentally affects how we feel physically. If water is changed by how we think or by being exposed to different types of vibrations, could it be that water is the connection between these things and our health?

Reading this book made me think about the ancient tradition of blessing water. I used to make fun of "Holy Water", or the idea that a priest could spout off a couple of Latin phrases over some water and somehow that made the water "holy". Now I'm wondering if there isn't some degree of truth to this ritual.

Dr. Batmanghelidj, who has been experimenting with the health benefits of water for years, has found that pain can oftened be cured just by drinking two glasses of water. He experimented with over 3,000 people and had positive results with every one of them. He believes that Unintentional Chronic Dehydration (UCD) contributes to and even produces pain and many degenerative diseases, which he says can be prevented and treated by increasing water intake on a daily basis. It sounds too simple, too easy to be true, but his contention is that the medical establishment suppresses this knowledge because there isn't any profits in it. That wouldn't surprise me. I also tend to trust his research because he isn't selling anything....not bottled water, not purifiers, nothing....he's just trying to get this information available to the public. Here's a link to his web site....WaterCure | The Miracles of Water to Cure Diseases

I never was one to carry a bottle of water around with me everywhere I went. However, after a bout with kidney stones a few years back, I can say that I take my water intake more seriously these days. And I can honestly say that since I have been drinking more water, I rarely get sick anymore.

Here's another testimony to the healing properties of water I would like to share with anybody who is open enough to try something new....About 20 years ago, during the summer, I had a flu/cold type of thing going on that I just couldn't shake. I'd get better for a while and then it would come back, it went on for weeks. One afternoon I went with some friends to Butte Creek for a dip. I remember how good it felt to just sit out in the creek and let the water run over my neck and back. I did this for about 30 minutes and when we left the creek I immediately noticed that my flu symptoms were gone....and they stayed gone. A few years later it happened again, a cold that just wouldn't leave. So remembering my last cure by sitting in a creek, I decided to try it again, only this time I went to Chico Creek because it was closer. I didn't care if the cure was psychosomatic or whatever, if it worked once, it might work again. Well guess what? It didn't work. A few days later I decided I would try going to Butte Creek instead because that was where I was cured the last time. And guess what? Instant cure again! 30 minutes sitting in the Butte Creek fixed me right up, knocked out the cold and fever. Of course this only works if your sick in the summer time. I think I would take sickness over sitting in the Butte Creek in the winter time.

So what is it about the Butte Creek? And why a creek? I know there is gold in the Butte Creek and there is not in Chico Creek. Could it be the minerals? Could it be the colloidal properties of the minerals that allow them to penetrate your skin because of their small size? I don't know, but I know that it has always worked for me. For the last month or so I've been dealing with a sore and swollen foot. I've had a blood test and x-rays and everything checks out OK. So this morning I decided to try the magic creek cure. This was my first day of soaking my foot in Butte Creek. I'm going to try soaking it everyday for a week and see if I get results....I'll keep you posted.

Italy has it's famous healing waters of Fatima. France has it's healing waters of Lourdes. I think we might have the same thing right here in Butte county. If anybody who reads this tries getting a healing in Butte Creek, I would very much like to hear about your results, if any. In the meantime....we should all develop a drinking habit!
