Watching my granddaughters’ cat, Tigger, this weekend had me thinking about writing another post on water. Given the choice, Tigger prefers filtered water over tap water. He will walk right past the bowl of tap water to get to a bowl of filtered water. Tigger even knows the source of the filtered water. We have a water cooler with a Pi-Mag Aqua Pour Deluxe Gravity Water System. When thirsty, Tigger reaches up to the spout. My son-in-law has to cover his spout to keep Tigger away from it. So how cool is that.
Most people aren’t as choosey as animals. They think that drinking tap water is just as good. I understand their thinking because I grew up on tap water. I wasn’t aware of the problems associated with water until I served in the U.S. Army. Then it still took me another fifteen years before I started filtering my water. Drinking municipal tap water is the best when you are not aware of the choices you have. If you are aware, and have consumed pure, healthy, uncontaminated water, I think that your choice will be the same as my granddaughter’s cat.
When I take my Pi-Mag Aqua Pour Gravity Water system to a health fair or lecture, people often return to get another cup of water before they leave. Whenever I take the Pi-Mag system to an event, people prefer drinking it over the bottled water that they have purchased. I often get requests to bring the system to gardening work days and people have commented on how good the water tastes. Another member of our greening committee has noticed that plants grow better with filtered water than with tap water.
I have written elsewhere about water in general. The post is entitled “What’s in Your Water?“ Go there and check it out. Also, here is a link for you if you want to learn about the “World Water Disaster.” Every now and then, we provide an update on the benefits of drinking pure, healthy, uncontaminated water.

You see it everywhere. You see it under the golden arches, in the living room, at the workstation, and in the car. People are not fully aware of the experience of eating.
During these days of diet wars, many of us are obsessed with what we can and cannot eat. And because of this obsession, we have forgotten how it feels to fully enjoy our food.
What was your state of mind during your last meal? Were you calmly and peacefully enjoying your food or were you arguing with a friend or family member?
When you eat during periods of emotional upset it is detrimental to your body. Eating when you are angry, exhausted, or tired can lead to indigestion and gas.
What were you doing the last time you had a meal? Were you reading the newspaper, watching television, listening to the radio, driving your car, attending a meeting, or working on the computer?
Unconscious over-eating patterns often originate from eating while engaged in other activities. Eating while doing other activities and not paying attention to what or how much you are eating can lead to overeating and weight gain.
The ingestion of food ought to be a sacred act to you. It is important to keep your thoughts clear while you eat and it is not advisable to eat when you are in a hurry. Close your book and put away your newspapers. Do not read during a meal.
Ideally, eating is a social experience. We often surround ourselves with those we care about and love. But be aware that a lot of conversation is a distraction from noticing when you are satisfied. So enjoy your loved ones while keeping your conversation to a minimum.
When you sit down to a beautiful meal, turn off the television news. You do not want to consume food during stressful moments where murders, wars, and conflicts flash across the screen.
Feelings and emotions change the vibration of the foods you consume. And whatever feelings and emotions you have as you eat your meal, these same emotions are energetically transmitted to your food and to your body. One solution is to assess how you feel prior to eating and uncover the emotions and habits that lead you down the path to mindless eating. Another solution is to practice eating with a clear mind for a few days. Do not eat when you are stressed, upset, or tired. It will help your digestive system and enhance your health.
As you begin the habit of conscious eating, you will get in better communication with your body. People in the habit of disregarding communications from their body often have symptoms of gastric distress like those of irritable bowel syndrome.
So, if you want to change your life in a positive way, use the message in this article to increase your awareness. Remember to eat only when you’re hungry, do nothing but eat when you’re eating, savor every bite, and stop when you’re no longer hungry.

Each one of us knows someone who is suffering from or has died from one of the killer diseases. Over 4000 people per day are dying from cancer and cardiovascular diseases in the United States. During the past year, I have had my share of family and friends that have suffered, are suffering, or have died from illnesses related to these two causes.
Though I am saddened by this, it has strengthened my resolve. If each of us would only adopt a few vital behaviors, we could greatly reduce a lot of unnecessary suffering and early death.
My vision is the creation of a culture of wellness in our homes, our workplaces, our institutions, and our communities. Culture is defined as the ability to pass on learned information. In a culture of wellness, we will pass on our learned vital health promoting behaviors to our children and loved ones. Therefore, creating a culture of wellness is simply the ability to pass on the behaviors that rebuild and renew the body’s cells for nine decades or more.
Massive problems require a community of influencers working in concert to solve them. You can help me partner with these influencers by recommending people who have influenced you – people you truly respect. These influencers are people who are committed to serving others, who are willing to adopt vital behaviors for improving their own health and personal economy, and who are willing to encourage others to adopt these behaviors for the good of all.
I am willing to meet with the opinion leaders that you recommend and train them, if they are willing to join our influence community. Please provide their names and contact information with the best time to call them. Also, send them a introductory note with this message and let them know that I’ll contact them soon.
