Don't Drink the Water!


Connor is extremely intelligent; he is also extremely sensitive (as all children are). What causes an extremely intelligent and sensitive child to one day be unable to focus and think clearly?  That was a question my daughter posed to me recently. “Connor took a test at school for next year’s placement, and he was unable to comprehend most of it. This is all stuff he knows. What happened?” I’m happy she asked.

These words were reminiscent of  a time many years ago when her brother had similar issues. Shannon forgot one of my simple rules. When you ask a question, answer it with another question. “What has Connor been drinking?”

It took only a moment before Shannon realized the answer. “He brings his water to school; when he runs out, however, he fills his bottle at the bubbler.” 

“Stop using the bubbler; send enough water for the day from home.”

She was a bit embarrassed that she had forgotten Joshua’s lessons from the past. Yet, I  found it a bit amusing. I knew this was an important lesson as well as a fixable one for both mom and son. “After you take him off the water, remember to give him Dandelion Root every day to help flush his liver.

Toxic water clogs the liver. A clogged liver clogs the brain. Fix the liver; fix the brain. 

A week later, Shan and I were FaceTiming and I could see Connor doing his homework in the background. “How is Connor doing?” I asked.

“Great. No problem at all since we took him off the water at school.”

Sometimes there are simple solutions to complex problems. Each experience is another lesson in learning how to heal together.

I received this email from a friend that I thought was important to share:

"I am working in Maine and living in a local motel. On Sat nights, I would get a bucket of ice, from the ice machine, and have a few vodka drinks. Two Sundays in a row, I had the runs off and on, all day! I stopped using the ice machine and all is well! The grocery store has a filter mach to refill your 1 gallon jugs for 50 cents. At work they have Poland Springs in a dispenser, I hate to think that the Koches are making all that money, but it IS good water and it's not my money, lol"

What's in the water you are drinking?

These are all great questions. If you are on a city/town water system, most likely you are drinking chemicals such as chlorine and rust inhibitors. Often (not always), a filter can help and often Britta will help to get the water purer. There was one city water that a filter did not help at all. The water was very toxic.

If you have a healthy private well, you are ver blessed. Honor it. Keep it clean by avoiding spraying toxic chemicals around your property. If you live near an old landfill, I'd have my water tested for contaminants.

I have taken a few minutes to test different bottled water, using 0-100 with 100 being perfect, although remember we are now adding to the plastic problem. I found only one water that tested at 100. I am sure there may be more; my time is limited for researching; however, I think this gives you a good idea. 80 and over is very good and drinkable.

Poland Springs 80
Crystal Geyser 90
Zephyrhills 11
Evian 80
Ethos 10
Volvic 90
Fiji 100
Arrowhead 90

Here are 2 waters that are very popular and often the only ones you can find when traveling. This is why I don't drink purified water.
Dasani 2
Aquafina 11

I hope this helps answer your questions.

you are too good. BLESSED-BE.

oh why have we contaminated the very basics for living - water,air,land/food!!!!!
where are we heading?
am rambling, just frustrated with the foolhardiness and the mess we have landed ourselves in!
praying hard to GOD to deliver us from all those ignorant /evil minded policy makers!!!
May HE, by HIS sheer love, compassion and grace shower them and us with divine values so we begin to care for our fellow beings and stop polluting this bountiful EARTH!
Thank you once again.
