Book Reviews of The Hidden Messages in Water
Book Review: Riveting
Summary: 5 Stars
I found this book to be a thought-provoking read. It was quite intriguing to learn the influence your subconscious mind has on your extrinsic conditions. It is believed that every thought and sight has been stored in the cellular memory of the brain and we are constantly bombarded with the consequences of those memories. There is a direct correlation between our thoughts embedded within the confounds of our minds and our reality. The experiments with water were extremely compelling. The implications of quantum theory described in this book are astounding. I look forward to learning more about quantum physics.Book Review: A MUST READ BOOK!!!!!

Summary: 5 Stars
The Hidden Messages in Water helped prove my theory of the interconnectedness among all life that I wrote about in my book, Harmonious Envrionment: Beautify, Detoxify & Energize Your Life, Your Home & Your Planet.
An excellent example of how our thinking and feeling can institute change comes from Dr. Masaru Emoto's study. Emoto's experiments show how powerfully your thoughts can affect your physical environment. In his book, The Hidden Message in Water, Emoto demonstrates how water will change form in response to thought.
Emoto mentally projected love to a bottle of water, which was then frozen and the ice crystals were photographed. The crystals were beautiful, clear and symmetrical.
Next, Emoto allowed the water in the bottle to melt and directed hate to the water. He froze the water and photographed the ice crystals. This time, the crystals were misshapen, dense and ugly.
Every one of us, consciously or unconsciously, affects the objects and people around us--including ourselves--on a continual basis. Think about the expression "laughter is contagious." It is! How do you feel when you are around happy, laughing people? Usually, you can't help but feel good yourself. All emotions are energy and energy passes from one body to another; from one object to another; matter to matter. Emotions are contagious!
Emoto also found that low frequency water reacts extremely negatively when exposed to low frequencies, but high frequency water is not affected in any way by low frequencies. This is because low and high frequencies are not on the same wavelength, and when we are in a high frequency state we are not affected by the low frequencies of our environment, other people, objects or food.
This book will convince you to chose what emotions to own.
Oh--and the photographs are lovely!

Book Review: It's Just Water - Or is it?????
Summary: 5 Stars
The fun begins right on their front page with a quote from Masaru Emoto:
"We must pay respect to water, and feel love and gratitude, and receive vibrations with a positive attitude. Then, water changes, you change, and I change. Because both you and I are water."
Although his name evokes images of an early '80s new wave, Mr. Emoto is actually a doctor. No, not that kind of doctor. Dr. Emoto earned his degree in alternative medicine from the world renowned Open International University
The Open International University For Alternative Medicines has played a pioneering role in imparting holistic health education in India through a variety of courses leading to the award of diploma, certificate of bachelor and post graduate degree certificates through regular classes and distance education (aka CORRESPONDENCE)programs. It is not clear about the Ph.D. calibre of their courses in terms of academic supervision.

Dr. Emoto found that water that had been consciously altered by the simple imprinting of a "word of intent," would change. Water that was imprinted by "love," "gratitude," and "appreciation," responded by the development of complex crystals -- essentially "snowflake" crystals obtained by evaporation and cooling -- and an excellent effect was produced by combining the words "love" and "gratitude," as any fool can plainly see in the illustration. But water that was mistreated by negative intentions became disordered and lost its magnificent patterning. In fact, it often took on grotesque forms of resonance, he says.
Then he really got into the swing of pseudoscience, simplifying matters by just writing words -- in any language, of course -- on pieces of paper and taping them to a clear glass container to see if anything happened. Positive words like "love" and "thank you" produced beautiful and delicate crystalline patterns, we're told. He tried "You Make Me Sick. I Will Kill You" and he observed distorted, frightening, muddied patterns. We show here the pattern produced by this last phrase. He even experimented with names like "Gandhi," "Mother Teresa," and "Hitler," and the same kind of results occurred. Wow, again!
And, not to our surprise, Dr. Emoto discovered that the water crystals dutifully form up in response to different ethnic versions of the languages impressed upon them. Here's the expression "thank you" in both Japanese and English. You can see the distinct variations, can't you?
Well, if that didn't convince you that Dr. Emoto might not have both oars in the water, try this, a quotation from him in answer to his thoughts on what the crystals are: "I came to the realization that these crystals are spirits." Okay. Where's the door....?
Let's spend a moment to wonder about how such a view can be brought about. Dr. Emoto might very well believe that he's doing science. But he's not. He does no double-blind procedures, for one thing, which dooms these amateur efforts, right from the beginning. If he were to be blind to which words were being used to influence the water crystals, his search through the results looking for confirmation, would be inconclusive. I'll risk the JREF million-dollar prize on that statement. If Dr. Emoto wants to win the prize, let him agree to perform his tests in a double-blind fashion, and I predict he'll get fuzzy results that prove nothing.
On the flipside some more: Do you due diiligence on the credentials, even at the Ph.D. level of other more woo-woo writers on this field of energy and intuitive healing .... before you listen to their counsel. Many of them have Ph.D.'s from unaccredited places ... which means they didn't go through the same kind of rigor. Many popular New Agey type writers along with Doreen Virtue, Sonia Choquette, Carolyn Myss, John Gray, Barbara De Angelis, etc .... who are examples of Ph.D.s whose source were unaccredited universities, some who have now been shut down by government authorities as degree mills. Please keep this in mind when venturing out to learn from an inuitive healer ...
