Normally I can't stand getting ads in my inbox but one came through today from Amazon and I think it was more of one of those "messages" trying to reach it's way to me.  The ad was for a new book by Dr. Masaru Emoto who originally wrote the book "The Hidden Messages In Water".  He's actually written many books and his brand new one is, "Water Crystal Healing")

I was reminded today once again of the importance of joy and creating "good vibrations".  Dr.  Emoto's  book "The Hidden Messages In Water" physically demontstrates the power of our good vibrations.   I orignally heard of his study in the movie "What The Bleep Do We Know?" and ran out and  bought the book the next day.  It was utterly fascinating.  You wouldn't believe it but to see the photographs of these ice crytals that he has documented.

Masaru Emoto was scientifically able to prove that different vibrations aimed at water create very distinct ice crystal patterns.  Good/Postive vibrations create extremely beautiful, geometric and ornate crytals while bad/negative vibrations create "ugly", ungeomtric crystals.  Ultimately Dr. Emoto has proven that optimal well-being literally comes from good vibrations. 

Dr. Emoto brings to light the point that if our body is made up of approx. 60-70% of water what happens then to our bodies if we are not vibrating anything other than good/postive/calm/relaxed vibrations?  What happens to our bodies when we internalize anger or put ourselves down? 

Here are a couple of his web sites where you can see some pictures and learn more:

Here's some trivia for you:

Water is of major importance to all living things; in some organisms, up to 90 percent of their body weight comes from water. Up to 60 percent of the human body is water, the brain is composed of 70 percent water, and the lungs are nearly 90 percent water. About 83 percent of our blood is water, which helps digest our food, transport waste, and control body temperature. Each day humans must replace 2.4 litres of water, some through drinking and the rest taken by the body from the foods eaten.

Kind of gets ya thinking doesn't it?

I talk so much about power of joy and its ability to help us manifest but this little reminder today drove it even deeper for me as to why it's so important to radiate and follow your joy.... even to our physical body. 

I think that if we don't start from the inside out... starting with our physical selves.....it makes getting those good vibes out into the Universe that much more difficult.  Your transmitter (You)to the Universe doesn't function 100%.  Does a transmitter to the Universe that doesn't function 100% then truly work?

I think today I realized that I think that I've been sending good vibes out to the Universe because I always try and follow my joy... 95% of the time I am but if I tell the truth there's a part of me that talks ugly to myself... where I get down on myself about my weight.  I'm therefore creating some pretty "ugly crystals" inside myself... could be a lot... and therefore may make me not an optimal transmitter to the Universe.

Buddah says, "All that we are is a result of what we thought."  What have you been thinking about yourself?  What kind of "crytals"  are you composed of... beautiful, geometric  and ornate  ones... or "ugly" ones?    How functional/optimal is your transmitter?
