I was sent a newsletter on the topic of how words effect our bodies, and the premise was that if we said bad things about ourselves it would effect the composiotion of the water in our bodies. Similar to the episode on the plants (talking mean to the plants supposedly made them die, and talking sweetly to them made them flourish)This is what they gave to support their theroy less the pictures...

A picture of a distilled water molecule

this molecule looked SICK!!
Water charged with words, " You make me sick. I will kill you."
Normal water again
Water from Fujiwara Dam BEFORE being blessed by Buddhist Monks
And then they showed one that looked like a SNOWFLAKE!!!
Water from Fujiwara AFTER being blessed by Buddhist Monks!!!
ANd again, a picture of what looked like a snow flake
Water charged with words "Love & Thank you."
After viewing these pictures have you begun to see how our thoughts can affect our own health and well being? Remember, we are comprised mostly of water. In the movie, it was said perfectly..."People's minds and consciousness can change the crystals of water. So think of what your mind can do to you." I think the message to take away from this research is that water is only a reflector and mirror acting as a projector of our own thoughts.
I do not believe that this is very crediable. What does everyone think?

If you say bad things about yourself sure it will affect your self esteem and therefore your heath. But water is not responsible for your personality.

Waters just the base of all liquids, water when nothing is living in it is just made up of elements i dont see how i could respond to your emotions!

Not true, petrol is a liquid & there should be no water in it, molten iron is another liquid & there's definitely no water in that.

This bit I will agree with, the elements in question being hydrogen & oxygen. The water molecule is made up of 2 hydrogen atoms & 1 oxygen atom - that's all that pure water is, just hydrogen & oxygen, ice crystals are just frozen water - they form according to scientific laws, just as iron crystals form when molten iron cools & solidifies.

i dont think theres any need for science to explain things here. science isnt the answer, common sense is.

animals alike, you shout at a dog it is able to respond using body language. a plant however isnt able to cower down and put its tail under its legs. fleas can flip coins, why not a plant have feelings?
