How to Create Living Water Water is a sacred element that is part of every living thing.

It is in each cell of the human body and covers 70% of our earths surface. Without water, life could not exist. Science is just now beginning to catch up with what mystics have known for ages, which is that water is a vehicle of consciousness and holds powerful healing properties. Due to modernization and pollution, however, water quality has decreased significantly over the last several hundred years. A recent example of this is the radioactive leak at the Fukushima nuclear plant in Japan, which is contaminating our water at an alarming rate. Another reason water quality has decreased considerably is because most often it sits in pipes and loses its aliveness because it is not moving. Healing happens one person at a time, so what can we do as individuals and communities to heal our water? Here are some ideas that I personally have found helpful to increase the frequency and healing properties of drinking water so that is truly living. You can also add this living, charged water to larger bodies of water to facilitate healing. If you decide to drink charged water, it is wise to begin by only consuming a small quantity and gradually acclimating yourself to the increased frequency. 1) Charge water in the sunlight and moonlight ~ In a glass container, place water outside or on a window ledge for 24 hours where it can be charged with the healing properties of the sun and moon. 2) Charge water with crystals ~ Place a crystal in the bottom of a glass container filled with purified water and allow it to charge for 24 hours. Since some crystals contain lead, mercury, and other substances that should not be ingested, it is important to only use certain ones that are safe, such as clear quartz, amethyst, and citrine. Each crystal will infuse the water with different healing properties, which you can learn more about online or in a crystal book like The Crystal Bible by Judy Hall or Love is in the Earth by Melody. 3) Create a vortex ~ Swiftly stir water with a wooden spoon in a clockwise direction so that a swirling vortex is created in the center. At a molecular level, the vortex restructures the water so that is can absorb quantum energy. There are also products available, such as the Living Water Jug, Double Egg Vortexer, and others (available at www.simplylivingwater.co.uk) that make vortexing water easy. As described on this website, Danish research has shown that vortexing cools, softens, cleanses, oxygenates, polishes and re-energies the water. Chlorine is also evaporated. I personally like the Double Egg Vortexer because it is made of glass and charges the water faster than the jug. 4) Add minerals ~ Adding pink Himalayan salt and other minerals and trace minerals help to increase the healing properties of the water. I like using pink Himalayan salt, Polar Mins by Premier Research Labs, and Spectramin by Energetix. 5) Infuse water with prayer and intentions ~ Water is alive and responds to our prayers and intentions. Hold a container of water in your hands and infuse the water with love, healing, or whatever prayer is in your heart. You can also write positive words like joy, peace, love, forgiveness, etc. on the water container. The

energy of these intentions charge the water beautifully.

You can also chant specific sounds that will infuse the water with healing frequencies. Chanting the sounds EL-KA-LEEM-OM is a powerful way to connect to the 4 sacred elements of water (leem), earth (el), fire (ka) and air (om). It is best to say the chant in multiples of four, so 4 times, 16 times, etc. You can find out more about this chant in the book Hathor Material by Tom Kenyon and Virginia Essene. 7) Charge water with Tibetan and crystal singing bowls ~ Sounds carries healing frequencies, so playing singing bowls near water increases its frequency. If you place the water inside a metal bowl, do not ingest it because heavy metals may leach into the water. You can use this water to share with your plants or to charge and clear crystals. 8) Bless the water with the energies of the Divine Mother ~ Water is connected to the emotions and the Sacred Feminine. Years ago I read about how Doreen Virtue imagines the Blessed Mother Mary inside her glass of water before she drinks. I, too, have found that this is a beautiful way to charge and bless the water. Also keep in mind that you can use any image of the Divine Mother that feels good to you.
