HEALTH: Surgery prep and recovery

There's a lot we can do to prepare for surgery and to recouperate afterwards. Any surgery is invasive, energetically; it's good to support your system so it returns to a healthy level of balance. Here's a small website we put together on my sister's surgery care program.

CNW: Google has found us!

I'm excited ~ I just googled various combinations of "structured water" and in some of them we come once and even twice in the top ten! Especially good are gardening ones, like "gardening with structured water" >> three times in the top five!

CNW: No fuzz

What's the big deal about a clean tongue? Here's what:

CNW: Clear of plaque

C, a friend who installed a water structuring device a few days ago, told me on the phone just now that she was mystified because her 'plate' (false teeth) is clean for the first time.

HEALTH: "Magic Energy Balls"

Here's my sister Lindis's recipe for high-energy high-protein balls ~

CNW: Trees give objective "proof"

I'm very excited by the latest info from Victoria White about the fruit trees in her homestead: all of them planted the same time, all of them receive the same organic soil amendments, all of them on a drip irrigation system, but some of them are smaller than the others. Why? Because they were not on structured water until this spring! Wow! The bigger trees were all on structured water from 2009 on. So the trees themselves provide proof that there is something else going on here besides great organic gardening techniques and a very green thumb! (You're welcome to look up the details and photos of neighbouring TerraSante sites of fruit trees, distinctly structured/non-structured, and then Victoria's TS site with structured water introduced in two phases, which I'll be updating in the next day or so with photos and trunk measurements)

CNW: An update from the navel

I've been pretty quiet for a week because I've been dealing with some health symptoms. Good ones ~ indications that my system is getting cleansed. I think it's a continuation of the cleansing that's been going on since I started drinking structured water. I don't think most people would have these symptoms or notice them if they did ~ I'm more aware because I'm writing this blog on structured water and want it to be accurate and honest, and because my body is in pretty good health generally (I'm vegan, eat 98% raw food, all organic, no medications, light weight, excellent energy), so if my system is cleaning out, it's quite obvious to me.

HEALTH: Resonating with what we want instead

We’re all drawn to certain things – particular colours, certain kinds of music, special friends. We sometimes say we feel like we 'resonate' with them – and we’re quite right, we do: we are on the same wavelength.

The trouble is, we not only resonate with things that are good for us (things, ideas, places and people that bring us greater health and energy), but also with things that are bad for us (they make us unwell, off balance, disoriented).

HEALTH: Exercise ...even a few minutes

There’s a great story about Mahatma Gandhi being asked by a mother, “Please tell my son to stop eating sugar.” He told the two of them to come back the following week. When they came before him again, he said gently: “My child, try to eat less sugar.” The mother asked why he had not said that the previous week, and Gandhi explained: "At that time, I was still eating sugar myself."

CNW: Someone else's experience

My friend Patreace, who installed her CN water structuring unit a day or two after she helped me set up mine, says her finger tips, which have always been hard and dry, are smooth: "they've never felt so soft" ~ it feels like they are getting rehydrated from the inside, she said.

CNW: Hair, wrinkles & BMs

We installed the CN water structuring device last Friday, 30 July 2010. Here are changes I've noticed since then ~ in the last five days.

HEALTH: Sunlight

I've never forgotten reading about someone with multiple sclerosis who spent hours outside every day, sitting or lying in dappled sunlight or shade ~ and credited the sunlight with their recouperation from MS.

HEALTH: Food ~ high fats and low carbs or...?

The meat and dairy industry has bombarded us for decades on the health benefits of eating foods that are high in protein (meat, fish, cheese, eggs) and high in calcium (milk, cheese, yogurt) every day, preferably several times a day. But anywhere in the world where people eat the Standard American Diet (SAD), you’ll find obesity and ill health. Visit Japan (by internet if not in person) and you’ll see American-sized overweight teenagers. Closer to home, ask any of your overweight friends or relatives how often they eat any of these high-protein or high-calcium foods: Once a month? Or once or more a day?

HEALTH: Diets ~ which one?

There are hundreds of products and programs out there for losing weight and gaining weight, but it's questionable whether they contribute anything to our overall health. How do we know what is healthy and what isn’t?

HEALTH: Five variables

I didn’t get how dangerous weight can be until I read about sleep apnea.

It's one thing to know that when you are overweight you are more at risk for heart attacks, strokes, diabetes, high blood pressure, asthma and certain types of cancer: those are things everybody may face down the road sometime, if ever. But obstructive apnea is right here and now: a risk of dying anytime you go to sleep… Wow, that really hit home.
