- Water is one of the basics that we depend on. It is needed for every function in our body for life; It is needed for the delivery of life and the removal of death.
We need water to mobilize everything in the body and in our over toxic world, it may be the most important thing we intake for long term health. - It is a basic need that should be considered during problem solving as well. ( I have __________ symptom. Maybe it is because of ________? SEE link to book/site Water Cure. "You're not sick, you're thirsty" -- And I can vouch for his saying that a symptom of chronic thirst is lack of the sensation of feeling thirst. )
- There is a balance of water that needs to be maintained and balanced with the nutritional needs of the body. Typically people just plain don't drink enough, but as metabolic needs ebb and flow in your body, you may need to be cautious about when and how much you drink.... Just remember adding more water to a soup thins it out - at some point it is too much, but without enough, then it isn't even soup. (sugar and salt balances in the body needs to be maintained - sometimes a can of coconut water is in order ....times of day make a difference too.)
On the simple view for improved decision making:
drink (wet your mouth), then drink some more ("ehh, that's enough" = crossing the threshhold from chronic habits), then drink some more ("oh! that feels better" = finally getting enough), and then drink more (ok, now I feel topped off and my body is getting used to the new feeling so that I can always drink the sufficient amount), And then the "true not-feeling-like" drinking more. - The type of water is often brought up.... This kind of filtering or that, etc. Really, as long as it is clean, then it is water. Sanitation is number one - An area where the only water source is downstream from an open 'toilet' is not clean water. If there were an emergency, then clean water would become a focus.
However, for a lifetime of drinking the "other" stuff in the water starts being a bit more important than basic survival. Heavy water is heavy because of an abundance of mineral and other substance dissolved in water. Remember making crystals it had to be a super saturated solution. Water can hold A LOT. And not all of that is equal. Nor are we trying to grow crystals especially of only one type in our bodies! (that would be called a stone. :) ~~~ ) - Depending on how far you have delved into the world and it's energies this subject can be very short or very long. I don't think this is the place, nor do I have the time to attempt a summary. Suffice it to say that, at the very least, everything has electric charge (remember the periodic table of elements and electrons?) and this applies to water, what is in it, and the abilities it would have in your body. And be grateful for the water you are so blessed to have!
- Side note on Fluoride - here's is a link to update what you've heard about fluoride in water - remember if we go to a someone and offer to buy their trash, they will probably sell it to you. (even if you are of the mind that it is needed for your teeth, then remember that it is sold as rat poison because rats don't swoosh and spit... my suggestion is to at least stop eating and swallowing fluoride, minimize it to the one area you feel it would have a less negative effect on the whole body/thyroid, etc and remember that detoxing from fluoride is NOT pretty, but eating seaweed over time will help with a slow detox and an increase in health, energy, beauty, and organ capabilities.)
- A lot of the different nutrition and health 'Dr. Greats' I have read about and learned from in recent years say that distilled is best. Minerals are best for our body when integrated in a nutrient dense food. Water is best when it is NOT super saturated. It is meant to transport life and death in our bodies remember? So a water that is, for example 50% saturated already has only 50% capacity to carry things in your body. Distilled water is ~100% open and active, ready to satisfy all your transportation needs at top capacity. :) If you are trying to absorb minerals better then make your tea and take your supplements such as min66 with distilled water!
- [some of] My new habits,.... :)
I have been drinking a full glass (try for over 2 cups) of distilled water in the morning a few moments after I finish oil pulling. Then Wait a moment, (my body feels the difference) and then drink a full glass of our regular filtered water with ConcenTrace drops. The process is very refreshing and then, And only after having water, do I eat anything.
Other alternatives: Even if you don't do the cleansing routine of oil pulling, and just the distilled
OR even just ANY amount of water BEFORE eating, then you are giving your body a great boost right at the start of the nights "fast" that you are breaking. - Drinking before eating gives your body a chance to rehydrate before having to start the work of digestion. Trying to transport enzymes, bile, and nutrients from digestion before hydration would be a laborious and sluggish process compared to a free flowing vibrant flow of hydrated liquids.
The other reason I choose to do this in the morning is because our bodies are in cleaning mode in the morning (Chinese medicine I think it was) is from 6am to noon. (and from what I understand and believe is happening all night. I think a lot of emotion and mental, is "dealt" with during night/sleep.)
An evidence to this that I've experienced is the fact that Oil pulling only works if you have allowed any food or water to even touch your lips - If I wash my face and get my lips wet (lips are part of the mouth = food/water contact with your mouth tells the digestive system to get ready, enzymes rush to the mouth etc) before I oil pull then it doesn't even work as well, if at all. (If I do forget, I try to pull my lips in to keep them dry as soon as I remember and it seems to work ok.)
Once we start eating then we start digesting. Eating processed foods in the morning puts even more energy and effort into digestion relative to their level of processing (junk food is not food, there is just junk or food....). The more raw, then the more enzymes and "self digestion" can happen, the less raw (more processed) then the more your body has to put into digesting it. Same with whole foods vs processed/stripped foods.
- Silver and copper are great for cleaning water = killing all kinds of cooties. I'd love to learn how to do it myself, but there are also filters that have silver in them already.
- (Water can be sterilized in a solar oven.)
- Ozone, with it's super short, super active 'life', breaks down all types of things = Mother Nature's pollution control!.
- There is an abundance of filters easily available that catch the particles (99.9 is NOT enough, it needs to have more 9s after that decimal!)
- There are many ways of cleaning and filtering water, depending on your preferences.
- I'm working on slowly learning about distillers.
Update: Impressive water filter http://www.righthererightnow.co/ AquaPail I was able to handle this personally at an expo recently and can definitely say it is in a whole category of it's own! :D
