Beyond H2O: The Quantum Biology of Skin Hydration
Eat Your Water, Light Your Cells
Unlock the crystalline, electrical battery charge inside your fascia to flood your skin with natural energy and a procedure-free glow.
✨ The Hydration Deception
I know you are dehydrated if you are experiencing afternoon fatigue, random body aches, and skin that does not bounce and glow. It is highly likely you are doing one or more of the following:
🌸 Drinking coffee first thing in the morning
🌸 Sitting at a desk and staring at a screen all day
🌸 Eating a diet low in fresh fruit and raw vegetables
The solution might seem simple: drink more H2O. But, contrary to popular belief, becoming truly hydrated is not a matter of drinking more water, not even eight giant glasses. The new science of hydration actually shows us how to do more with less, and how to sustain our cellular hydration with the use of plants, light, and intentional water usage. This is how we step into our true power as a superconscious beauty. We recognize that our bodies are not machines to be watered, but living, intelligent ecosystems waiting to be activated.
✨ A Childhood State of Wonder
Let us take a deeper dive into the wisdom of water. Flashback to four-year-old me in 1973, riding in the back of a car after leaving Ocean Beach in San Francisco. After hours of playtime in the cold water and wet sand, I recall trying to work out in my mind what water was actually made of. Did you combine other ingredients to produce it? What was it? Every possibility I thought of required water itself as an ingredient, and I can distinctly remember the feeling of being completely lost in a state of wonder. Now, I feel a deep sense of reverence in the retelling of this story because even at such a young age, I have always been fascinated with what things are made of, especially water.
✨ It Turns out Water Is Weird
It is real weird, and it behaves differently than almost any other substance on Earth.
In her book, Azez Medicine, Fay Thompson writes that the properties of water are unlike any other substance. When it freezes, water expands, while all other substances contract. When ice forms, it floats, because water becomes lighter as it becomes denser, whereas other substances become heavier. Water is limitless in its being. Like Source Energy, it is infinite. You cannot destroy water. Unlike other substances that combust when heated, water simply changes form and evaporates, but it remains a water molecule. It travels from the Earth to the atmosphere and back, replenishing and neutralizing itself in the process. It cannot be destroyed. While water may be limitless in its nature, the way we access it for drinking, bathing, and living is changing. Water is essential to talk about in the quest for wellness. As a species, we are facing planetary climate changes, and water, as we have known it, is becoming an endangered resource worldwide. Without water, there is no us. This is a call to bring consciousness to water, and to develop a reverence, deep respect, and ritual around how we use it.
✨ Water Holds Your Intention
We also know that water can hold intention. The landmark work of Masaru Emoto showed that human emotions can affect the molecular structure of water, resulting in crystalline formations that echoed the negative or uplifting feelings it was exposed to.
Though Dr. Emoto was criticized as a pseudoscientist by the mainstream materialist scientists of his day, his studies are impactful and have a profound Ring of Truth to them. The Ring of Truth is a feeling you get in your body when something is true for you. In my work, I call this "Skintuition," and I invite you to trust your own inner knowing when you read or are exposed to new science and ideas.
✨ Dr. Gerald Pollack and the 4th Phase of Water
When you cross-section Emoto's work with the peer-reviewed findings on the fourth phase of water, some incredible connections come alive. Dr. Gerald Pollack maintains an active laboratory at the University of Washington in Seattle. He is recognized internationally as an accomplished speaker and author, receiving honors like the NIH Director's Transformative Research Award and the first Emoto Peace Prize. Dr. Pollack's discovery of a fourth phase of water, H3O2, is possibly the most important scientific discovery of the century. Simply put, the fourth phase of water is a structured, coherent, "gel" state that is distinctly different from solid, liquid, or gas. This gel layer creates what Dr. Pollack calls an exclusionary zone (EZ) against the border of surfaces exposed to light. This EZ zone is structured, coherent, and crystalline in nature, and as such, it holds information and cellular wisdom. Even more incredibly, Dr. Pollack's peer-reviewed research on the fourth phase of water reveals that our cells are exclusively made of this structured substance, not the bulk liquid H2O we were previously taught. All plant cells are also comprised of this structured and coherent gel, making them the perfect food for powering our bodies. EZ water is like a charged battery in your cells. It stores energy and can deliver energy to cells that need it. It makes our mitochondria stronger so we can produce more cellular energy, and it hydrates us better and longer than bulk water.
✨ Eat Your Water
More insight into this fourth phase of water comes from Dr. Dana Cohen and anthropologist Gia Bria, who wrote the book, Quench.
Instead of drinking your water to hydrate, the premise of this book is to eat your water, just as water-deprived desert tribes have done for ages. Because fruits and vegetables are bursting with life-sustaining gel water, they are the perfect food. Their sugars and fibers mix precisely with the structured gel water to allow for perfect, slow-release cellular absorption. When you eat your water, you are feeding your body the exact hydration that it is made of. By the way, what if I told you that we do not eat food necessarily for the stand-alone nutrients, but for the gel water and the sun's energy? They also advise adding naturally occurring electrolytes, such as mineral-rich sea salt, to your regular drinking water. By doing so, you are enabling your body's own electrical nature to power up, communicate, and move information, waste, and nutrition faster and more efficiently. This also hydrates our fascia, allowing it to pump hydration wherever it is needed in the body, keeping us fluid in motion.
✨ Fascia and Your Frequencies
Hydrated fascia is the absolute key to getting hydration into the cells, which is a vital consideration for anyone seeking a healthy glow.
The new science of hydration is not really new at all. It is how our bodies have worked all along, we just did not have the vocabulary for it. With this knowledge, we can leverage our body's own wisdom with water and start relating to ourselves as part of nature, rather than disconnected and separate. A great practice is to bask in sunlight after eating a water-rich meal, and intentionally imagine your cells as vibrantly healthy and well. Bringing light and gel water together creates the perfect, fertile soil for your intention and imagination to take root.
This cellular light-water connection is at the absolute heart of the physiological and energetic reset we experience in The Light Lift®. It is the ultimate pathway to anti-aging well-aging. We all become a part of the worldwide water solution by becoming intentional, grateful, and downright reverent when relating to water in any form, especially in the mirror. Here is to the new science, and to listening to the wisdom of our own bodies. May we increase our flow, increase our glow, and spread this wisdom all over the land.
