THOUGHTS HAVE POWER

American Psychologist

Masaru Emoto (born in 1943)

Masaru Emoto, a Japanese

author and entrepreneur,

claims that human

consciousness has an effect

on the molecular structure of water.

The Hidden Message in Water

Masaru heard that no two snowflakes are the same and therefore wondered if the same were true about water.

He developed the instrumentation to take pictures of water crystals.

He found that thoughts have an impact on water.

Our Bodies, Thoughts & Words

Our bodies are about 70% water.

Our thoughts and words affect water.

Therefore, we are affected by our thoughts and the

words we use.

Applied kinesiology uses this principle and acts as a lie

detector without a person needing to be hooked up

to a machine.

Albert Einstein (1879-1955)

This man said that up to now we have

been wrong. There is no such thing

as matter; it is all energy.

“I believe that the electro-magnetic

movement of the energy is what allows

us to communicate with water. It

doesn’t matter whether we think

something, say it, write it or feel it – it

creates a resonance and impacts other

things in the world.”

Dr. Marcel Vogel (1917-1991) • A research scientist for IBM’s San Jose facility for 27 years.

• After retirement he created his own laboratory, Psychic Research, Inc.

• The lab was dedicated to the study of subtle forces and energies that radiate from the body of living forms.

• He studied quartz crystals and created a faceted crystal known as the Vogel-cut ® crystal. The Vogel-cut ® crystal is an instrument that serves to store, amplify, convert and cohere subtle energies.

• He developed the instrumentation to take a picture of a thought as it leaves the brain.

“Creating Consciously” Developed by michael ryce

One part of “Creating

Consciously” is using

affirmations in a way

that is effective in

producing the results a

person is hoping for and

shows why the old way

of simply saying an

affirmation over and

over again doesn’t

work.

Brain=Computer

The brain is like a computer with various file folders

that holds our thoughts and beliefs.

• Pairings

Story of Doctor and Son

• Biases

Affirmations They are catalysts to surface the buried biases

and beliefs.

They are positive statements.

But how do we know if the particular affirmation is

a good one to produce change?

How it works Choose your issue and write about it or have a partner listen to you.

For example – work on money issues

Write or share your most negative thought about money. Then write or share your affirmation about money. For example – you may say “I make twice as much money as I can spend”.

You know you have a good affirmation if there is a part of you that says, “Who am I kidding?” or “No way!”

How it works Write down all the thoughts that come up as you say your affirmation.

If you are working with a partner, share your affirmation and then try to

convince your partner that your affirmation is true.

Switch and have your partner try to convince you that your affirmation

is true.

Once you surface your biases/beliefs related to your affirmation,

BREATHE AND RELEASE THEM...
