Water is purity. The "water world" is an interesting, fascinating, rich world. And we are going to explore it together. DBI kids drink water, understand its benefits and fascinating facts, and LOVE water.
At yesterday's meeting Ms. Susan shared with the girls a number of benefits about water. If you missed the meeting yesterday, below you will find what Ms. Susan shared with the team about water.
Dr. Emoto is the Dr. who conducted the study we shared with you a number of meetings ago. The Dr. that experimented with water and its relation with feelings, thoughts and words and the impact the those have on water. A few weeks ago I got the audio book "The Hidden Messages In Water" and visited the sites featuring Dr. Emoto's fascinating work.
Here is a link to a website where your parents can help you download a book we would love you to read over the summer. At the end of the summer we will have a meeting to discuss this book and its fascinating content. So....here you go:
International Water for Life Foundation
Once you and your parent click on the link above, take a moment to read that page and then click on the Download Dr. Emoto's Children's Book. We will print it for you and have it at our next week's meeting. I can assure you that what you will learn will forever change the way you relate with water. :)
Here are some of the thoughts Dr. Emoto shares with us:
--------------------------------------------------
The Message from Water through photographs of many water crystals, shows that water is capable of memorizing, retaining, and relaying any type of information such as: music, pictures, words, prayers, and thoughts. The Message from Water was first published in 1999 both in English and Japanese, resonated with many, and spread across the world predominantly by a word of mouth. It is currently translated in over 30 languages and has become an international bestseller.
Dr. Emoto and many of his readers believe that water holds the potential to create peace on earth. Dr. Emoto and many of his readers believe by holding the intention of peace towards water by thinking, speaking and acting with the intention of peace toward water water can and will bring peace to our bodies and to the world.
------------------------------------------------------
Now let me share with you another project Dr. Emoto works on entitled Love and Thanks to Water. Take the time to read this, think about it for a moment and begin working on this moving forward. Remember, DBI girls and boys have a special relationship with WATER.
---------------------------------------------
- Put a glass of water on a table in your kitchen, dining room or private room. Tell the water "I love you" and "Thank you", gently. At the same time, briefly visualize that all the water on Earth is connected with each other. You can do this with your children, family members and friends. Your Love and Thanks will be sent out to all the water on Earth through the water in the glass.
- How about imagining the following when you are touching the water coming from the faucet while doing the dishes, washing rice before cooking, or washing your clothes? The vibration of your Love and Thanks is overflowing from your heart through your chest, shoulders, and arms, and going through your palms that are touching the water into the water going out into a drain pipe. Your vibration will go through the flow of water very easily into the drain, into the nearby rivers and finally enter the ocean. The vapor from the ocean will build clouds and then the water will fall down as rains onto various parts of the world. In this way, the vibration of Love and Thanks that has originated from your heart will be transmitted to all over the world through the water network. This is a very easy way, and you can do this every day and every time you use water.
- An easier way will be just to tell gently "I love you" and "Thank you" to the water that is flowing out into a drain pipe after it has finished its role. This will surely change the vibration of the water.
- It is also very effective to put a "Thank you" sticker to the surface of the faucet. Every time you turn the faucet, it will remind you of the importance to express your gratitude to water.
- Or, if you want to do it a little bigger, then you can have a gathering around a pond, a lake, a river or along seashore. Then make a circle, holding hands, and say the same thing as above or more. Remember that the power of prayer is proportionate to the square of the number of people. You can add to this ceremony your own prayers that express your Love and Thanks toward water or Planet Earth.
- As the vibration of your Love and Thanks flows from your heart, you may feel your chest getting warmer and warmer. This will be the result of the Law of the Universe "What you give, you will receive".

Just some thoughts.....
It's all about LOVE and GRATITUDE!
Have you drank your water today?
DBI girls drink LOTS of water!
Here is what Ms. Susan shared about WATER with the team this Saturday June 2, 2007:
Water…..how much do you need???
What are some of the reasons we need water?
Fact : Generally, women are about 55-percent water and men are about 60-percent.
Everything that happens to your body requires water:
- Oxygen transport
- Brain function
- Cell reproduction
- Cellular waste removal
- Kidney and liver filtration
- Organ functions
- Metabolism of fat in the liver
- Temperature regulation through perspiration
- Joint lubrication
- Electrolyte balance *
- Blood, urine and on and on
What else does water do?
- Helps digestion
- Nutrient absorption and elimination
- Flushes out toxins
- Helps prevent disease
FACT: The amount of water you drink can also affect your energy levels.
Dehydration causes a significant energy loss, a 5-percent drop in body fluids can cause a 25-30-percent drop in energy.
Fact: We are exposed to harmful substances from the air, food and just about everything we touch. We can’t avoid toxins, but we can get rid of them with the right amount of water.
So how much is enough? How much is too much? Everyone has different needs,
start with dividing your body weight in half.
- The result is the number of ounces you should drink each day.
- Drink before, during and after a workout (extra)
- Drink more if you are outside on a very hot day
*n) electrolyte balance (an equilibrium between the amounts of electrolytes (as calcium and sodium and potassium) that is essential for normal health and functioning
When deciding what to drink,
Water is your best choice because it has no calories, additives or preservatives.
Our bodies are designed to run primarily on water. The quality of the water is also important.
Here are some ways to be sure the water you are drinking is the best source for your health:
· Check out this valuable information at the EPA’s Web site. Drinking Water and Health: What You Need to Know it explains what contaminants may be found, where drinking water comes from and how it is treated, etc. www.epa.gov/safewater/dwinfo.htm.
· If you drink bottled water, check the company’s Web site for their water quality report. If it’s not available, research different brands until you are satisfied with the information.
MAKE THE CHOICE TO CARRY WATER WITH YOU THROUGHOUT YOUR DAY!
DBI girls drink lots of H2O!
In-health and love,
