Here the latest scientific discoveries about water and its many magical and healing properties are unveiled. Here the latest research on water pollutants and contamination sources are exposed.

Download or read book The Water Of Life written by John W Armstrong and published by Random House. This book was released on 2011-08-31 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this revolutionary treatise, J W Armstrong puts the compelling case that all diseases (except those caused by traumatism or structural disorders) can be cured by one simple means: urine therapy. The therapy is an entirely natural treatment, a drugless system of healing that treats the body as a whole. Moreover, the only ingredient needed is a substance manufactured in the body itself, rich in mineral salts, hormones and other vital substances, namely human urine. It may seem strange to take back into the body something that the body is apparently discarding. Yet the theory is similar to the natural practice of organic composting. Fallen leaves, when dug back into the soil, provide valuable mineral salts to nourish new plant life. The same principle holds true for the human body.

Download or read book H2 Water 4 Life written by Dr Howard Peiper Nd and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-06 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humans have survived for as many as 90 days without food. But we can live only seventy-two hours without water before going into a semi-comatose state. However, drinking water saturated with inorganic minerals such as magnesium carbonate, calcium carbonate and other elements our bodies cannot use, may lead to a variety of unhealthy conditions and diseases. These inorganic minerals, toxic chemicals, fluoride and other contaminants can pollute, clog up and even turn our tissues into stone, causing pain, illness and even premature death. H2 Water, nature's healing water, may help remove inorganic mineral deposits and toxins from our joints, may remove cholesterol and fat, and create a pH balance in our body. This book unlocks the mysteries of H2 Water, which can often relieve chronic suffering. Using the miracle of H2 Water Ther-apy can now help us live healthier, happier and longer lives. - Dr. Howard Peiper, N.D. We are very fortunate to be alive during a global movement towards hydrogen water therapy and enjoy its abundance of health benefits. Hydrogen was present at the dawn of time. It is the father of all known elements in our universe. It is the most abundant gas in our galaxy. Earth could not sustain life without it because 71% of our planet's surface is covered in water (2 Hydrogen Atoms + 1 Oxygen Atom = H2O). Our human body is a "bag of H2O." For centuries, science-minded people have focused on the "O" part of H2O and either minimized or have never considered possible health benefits of the "H2" in H2O. There are millions of hydrogen atoms in every glass of water! This raises two fascinating questions. First, how can the 2 hydrogen atoms connected to the 1 oxygen atom in H2O be separated from the water molecules? Second, how can we get these millions of liberated single hydrogen atoms to pair with each other and form a very safe, emerging medical gas, H2, ... and, again, get this medical gas safely infused into a glass of water? So, in this book, we have the privilege of introducing you to what may be the greatest discovery in medical-science and health-care since 1953! - Steven Clarke, C.M.H.A.

Download or read book The Holy Order of Water written by William Marks and published by SteinerBooks. This book was released on 2001-10 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 16 lectures, Dornach, Dec. 23, 1921-Jan. 5, 1922 (CW 303) Today's schools fill children's heads with information instead of helping them develop their natural human faculties and capacities. They place too much stress on memory, leading to inner exhaustion instead of real learning for a healthy, fulfilling life. The important lectures in this volume were given in Dornach, Switzerland, to leading educators, including many from England. As a result, he was invited to Oxford to expand on some ot the themes presented in these talks. Steiner begins by placing Anthroposophy as the foundation for understanding the principles behind Waldorf education. In what follows, he describes an education based on the human as a continually developing being of body, soul, and spirit. From this perspective, Waldorf education depends on the teacher's ability to observe and respond to each stage of a child's development. Steiner shows how Waldorf education emphasizes the efficient use of children's inner energies and how children can be nurtured through their natural stages of development by giving them just what they need at the right time--an approach that Steiner calls "soul economy." These detailed and accessible lectures give parents and teachers the keys to a much-needed renewal of education for our children and their future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you know why 92 percent of all diets fail? It's because they don't deal with the complexity of weight management. Losing weight is not simply a matter of cutting calories or increasing exercise. The body's management of calories involves every organ system and is influenced by such far-ranging variables as food and environmental allergies; prescription medications; environmental toxins; sexual, emotional, or physical abuse; and other highly personal factors. In fact, the secret of weight management is that it must be geared to your particular body and your special needs. Weight Success for a Lifetime is designed to help you discover how to understand your particular body, so you can lose unwanted pounds and keep them off forever. Noted weight-management expert Carol Simontacchi has designed this comprehensive weight-management program based on a 48-week curriculum, with twelve lessons in four modules. In the first module, Living Successfully with Food, she discusses such topics as what makes a healthy diet, why most diets don't work, and how to change your set point to help you lose weight more easily. She also covers how to cope with food cravings, food allergies, and binge eating. The second module, Getting the Body Back into Shape, covers such lifestyle issues as how to create a personal exercise plan, digestion, and ridding the body of toxins. The Hidden Issues of Weight Management, the third module, is devoted to medical issues, including depression, hormone dysfunction, problems related to stress, and side effects of prescription medications. The final module, Healing the Heart and the Mind, delves into how to have fun with food, dealing with abuse issues, fear of success and body image, dressing for personal beauty, and making health a lifelong journey. This all-inclusive, time-tested program is designed to help you achieve permanent weight loss forever. Book jacket.
Download or read book A Journey in the Future of Water written by Terje Tvedt and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2013-10-25 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nourished by fears of global warming and climate change, water has become an issue of urgent international concern. Is flooding across Europe and Asia a warning of more extreme weather conditions in times to come? Will rising sea-levels threaten some of the most densely populated regions of the Earth. And as the world population approaches 7 billion, placing increasing demands on our limited global water supply, will there be conflict over access to water? Fundamental questions about the future of humanity are being asked, and for the first time in history they have to do with the role of water and our ability to control it. In 'A Journey in the Future of Water' leading water expert, TerjeTvedt, explores the impact of our growing water concerns. In a journey that takes him to more than twenty-five countries and across all continents he talks with water experts, politicians and local people to find out more about the ways in which different nations are seeking to respond. From Project Moses, where gigantic underwater gates will rise to prevent the inundation of Venice, to India's River Link Plan, connecting thirty-seven Himalayan rivers to rivers in the south, the author has examined some the world's largest engineering projects, travelled the great river valleys, explored the rain-soaked coasts of Scandinavia and the rain-starved deserts of the Sahara and Oman. From Las Vegas to Lourdes, from Norway to the Nile, he has taken part in water festivals and rituals in Africa and India, travelled to poor nomadic societies and some of the largest cities in the world, in order to better understand this most precious of resources and its determining role in the life of the planet. The result is both one of the most comprehensive and accessible accounts of current and future global water issues and a celebration of water itself.
